You won't get sleep here
The entire hotel smel.ls like marijuana. The front desk had the never to say they have a strict policy for smoking and to make them aware if I smelled anything. You smell it in the lobby! There are long term occupants living here with large dogs and babies. It was loud, unkept and really the worse hotel for a quiet nights sleep.

It was adequate given the price-point of Red Roof. The only hassle was at check-in, when the reservation I made never showed up at the front desk. I had to cancel it for a refund from hotels.com and check in as a walk-in.

It is what it is
The check in staff was nice but the lady in the morning was nowhere to be found when more cups and stuff was needed in the breakfast room. In the morning there really wasn’t help. Our room was clean but our towels were not. Our room seemed semi revamped but our lampshades should have been changed because there was stuff on them. I don’t know if it was food. It was an emergency booking so for that it wasn’t too bad. We almost drove off a cliff in the back of the building because they don’t have it blocked off and it looks like it’s just a steep driveway. They really need to fix that.
