I have been staying at this hotel for years and it is getting rundown. The towels are abysmal at best. Almost not even usable. I had to reset the satellite multiple times to view tv. I checked in on Tuesday and they did not clean my room for the first time till Friday. For 50 or 60 a night I guess its what you could expect, but the only reason i use it is due to the first dog staying free and the location is very good. But moving forward I will be looking at other properties to stay at unfortunately.

Ridiculous Motel Stay

tiny small room with a huge king size bed. Toilet was almost touching the tub. There was only one grab bar in the tub. The woman in the lobby seemed like we were bothering her, no smile, no greeting, no thank you, she obviously does not to work there. I will never stay in a Red Roof Inn again. I will tell my friends to never book a room Red Rood Inn.
