Several accounts describe accommodating and super-helpful front desk staff and smooth check-in, though there was one extreme incident involving a manager's misconduct; overall staff service (excluding that managerial breach) tended to be helpful.
Location
8.6
Some guests praised the location as a plus, while a few noted the surrounding area felt rough; overall the location is considered convenient by multiple reviewers.

Multiple reviewers called the price affordable and a strong point; given the low cost relative to some positive aspects, perceived value is high despite serviceability issues.

I will never stay at a Redroof inn again.
Pros:

The staff was nice and tried to help. The facility we rundown the bathrooms shower was full of rust, the light fixtures were rusted, I had to change rooms because the lighting in the bathroom and the phone did not work. The room was not clean and was never cleaned while was there or was the bed made or was I given new towels during my entire stay. No what I expected from a chain hotel.

Cons:

Satisfied
Pros:

It was a beautiful scenery. Been at this Red Roof Inn a few times. Almost always please

Cons:

It did get a little crazy. The guy next to us wasn't happy with anything, He seemed to target the room next to him. Also cop crazy and they were loud talking in the hallways.

Fine for a quick one night stay but wouldn’t stay longer.
Pros:

The room was big and there was a pool and it was affordable. Front desk was accommodating and did address our problem.

Cons:

Pool was very dirty, first room ac didn’t work had to change rooms. Rooms were kind of run down Seemed like a rougher area

Overall, a decent stay. I would probably stay again if I'm in the area.
Pros:

The bedroom was nice, relatively clean and very spacious and the beds were pretty comfortable. The check in went smoothly and the price was great.

Cons:

The bathroom could have been cleaner (bug on floor, hair in sink). The toilet was loose and rocked when you sat on it. The shower faucet dripped and there was no stopper for the bathtub. My daughter slept on the sofa bed and it wasn't very comfortable (although, in fairness, most aren't) and it was a bit noisy out there for her.
