The rooms were spacious and so clean! The staff were very friendly and were able to address our issues with the TV right away. We felt secure at this location because a room key is required to access the building. This was our first time at a Red Roof Inn and we will definitely be back!
As many have said, its a great place to lay your head. We were only there for one night because of a sold out show at the Fillmore. Staff was above average. We wished upon arrival that the pool was open but by the look of it we were better off.
Very good two star hotel, very clean and well mantained. The best Red Roof I have ever been

Staff was very helpful. The room was clean but typical for the price there was some cracks in ceiling etc but for what I needed it for it was good. The bed was comfy, tvs are fairly small
I could find nothing to complain about.
Very efficient and courteous staff. In 60 years of hotels the room was the cleanist I have ever stayed in. Very quiet. Great bed.
100% a great stay at a reasonable price.
I totally loved my stay, the front desk guy was very friendly during the check in and there was a lot of change since my last visit. The beds were super comfortable. I’ve seen a lot of negative reviews but I personally didn’t face any issues. I would totally recommend this one.
Staff was professional and courteous. Rooms were old, but clean. TV was very large and was streaming compatible. Convenient to interstate and door dash compatible. Staying again soon for work.
it was great for the price. The rooms were spacious and the bed was comfortable. It was clean just not super well kept, there was scotch tape on one of our walls? The bathroom wasn’t the greatest either, the shower curtain didn’t fit the size of the tub and the water drained very slowly. It looks like there could be some potential sketchy activity around the outside of the hotel but it was honestly fine. Close to a few food places & close to the city so it was good for a weekend! Would come back if we’re looking for a cheaper option when we go to charlotte for a few nights!
The man at the desk last night while checking in went above and beyond and was very kind i wish i knew his name to leave it in this review but he was there when we checked in at 9:30pm on sunday
I spent 10 years touring with bands so I’ve stayed in my fair share of Red Roof Inns, you should know what to expect at this price point. Will it be fancy and updated, no. However, this particular one stands out because of the extraordinarily good customer service at the desk and how spotless my room was.
