The TV in my room was not working. The young receptionist came down to my room to help. After trying again, unsuccessfully, she carried a working set down to my room and exchanged for the one not working. She was very apologetic, and so very kind.

Super close to the state park which was all that mattered to me on this trip. Quiet, clean , and convenient.
We enjoyed our stay at the Red Roof Inn in Charlestown. The location is in a quiet area, and we always felt safe.
The complimentary breakfast was also a pleasant surprise and tasted good. We stayed for two separate reservations, and our experience varied between the two visits.
On the first reservation, we had to wait about 10–15 minutes to check in because no one was at the front desk. There was a phone available to call the front desk employee, but no one answered. When the employee finally arrived, she did not seem apologetic.
The second stay was much smoother as we were able to check in right away.
We also ran into an issue after paying in full through Hotels.com. The front desk staff insisted we pay again and said it would be refunded within one to three business days, but that refund never happened. We contacted Hotels.com customer service, and they were unable to reach anyone at the Inn by phone. After we checked in again, the manager was finally able to refund our money.
Overall, we were able to get a good night of sleep, and we really appreciate that Red Roof Inn allows pets to stay for free.
Room was clean, breakfast bad, bed comfort fair, no ice machine. No lighting in parking lot. AC good. Shower good. 1 washer and 1 dryer available to use, if you could get it while not in use by other guests. Overall fair considering price.
Unfortunately, there wasn’t daily room cleaning services and we needed to go down to registration desk, or call for towels.

Pretty basic hotel room. Pretty clean. Room had a Roku smart tv where you could sign into Netflix, Hulu, Disney, etc. You don’t have to watch the garbage regular channels that are 90% commercials.
After check-in, doors were open to all work areas which looked very unkempt, bed mattress was worn out . . . we both had trouble sleeping and had back aches throughout the rest of our drive, breakfast was sparse and very un-appealing so we ate breakfast elsewhere, . . . Basically the hotel didn't match anything we had read on Expedia which is why we drove out of our way to stay in a place that fit our budget. . . . our mistake.
Spider on the bed when we first got there.
Room has a Light Smell like a refrigerator with old food in it.
Zero towels
No drain cap for the shower and hair and nastiness was in there.
Staircase is just exposed dimensional lumber. No carpet or anything. And no sign of ongoing construction.
No elevator.
Very loud AC in first room
Asked to change rooms
Asked for towels and was given a stack of new bath mats.
New room had mystery meat in the freezer (photo attached as proof)
Pool is freaking cold with the smallest towels ever. Don’t even wrap all the way around a small waist.
Employees had bottles of liquor on their carts (possibly leading to all of the other issues).
Asked one of the cleaning folks for towels since all we had was bath mats (that they gave us when we asked for towels. She checked her cart and said “I don’t have any. You’ll have to get them downstairs.” Isn’t that your job?
Worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at.
We stayed at the Red Roof Inn Charlestown Indiana for 4 days. Highlights of the stay were that the room was clean and the location was convenient. The pool area seemed to be clean as well. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with some of the amenities. The VIP reward that I was to receive for booking through Expedia didnt happen. The front desk staff member did not "know anything about it". There were only 3 towels provided for our party of four. We were on an extended road trip and had booked a hotel with self serve laundry service. The only washer had an out of order sign taped to it. The ice machine worked the first day but not after the first day. The office chair didnt work properly. The sheets were rough and scratchy. The biggest disappointment was the weekday breakfast buffet. It consisted of waffles. The juice machine was out of order and there were very limited cereal options that required asking for milk. The bed frame had a sharp exposed piece that stuck out approximately an inch from under the bed. I hit my ankle on it and it actually cut my ankle and caused it to start to swell. There seemed to be one staff member trying to do all the customer service duties, breakfast duties, and other duties with no additional assistance. While our stay was ok the reasons that we chose that hotel over other options fell short.
Nice, clean room. Friendly, helpful staff. Breakfast was a big disappointment. Juice machine broken, one box of cereal and two slices of bread and barely warm coffee rounded out the offering.
There was a water leak in the room that was reserved for us and it could not be fixed same day. Upon my request I asked the kind young lady at front desk if she could recommend a diff motel for us for that 1 night stay. She did and called that diff motel to see if they had any vacancies which theu did. She had great customer service skills. She also directed us to the Jayco (Kroger) store where we could get gas
The front staff was helpful! The hotel had no breakfast. No batteries to the tv remote. She couldn’t find anymore. Said she couldn’t call manager they wouldn’t answer. No paper towel in bathrooms.
The accommodations were good. The front desk person charged me for a room that I had already paid for and told me I'd have to leave if she refunded her mistake. Now I'm going to have to dispute the charges with my bank. And... there was no manager onsite or available by phone. Terrible service. I even had an email and receipt to prove I paid, which she admitted was in my portfolio, but that didn't matter.
Even though they are in the process of renovating the stay was clean & quiet. No vending machines or laundry (broken) but minor inconveniences overall.
