Red Roof lock out
My daughter had open heart surgery on Dec. 16 and didn’t want to miss spending Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with our family in Langhorne PA so I decided it would be more comfortable for us to stay overnight in PA instead of driving an hour back and forth from East Brunswick, NJ on both days. We had a reservation at the Red Roof Inn Trevose, PA and checked in at 3:30pm, rested a few hours and went to our families house on Christmas Eve. We returned to the motel around 11 pm and the card key would not open our door. I went to the office to have it re-programmed and again it wouldn’t open. An employee came out and tried the card key and also could not get it to open. We returned to the office and the front desk clerk said maintenance would not be in until the morning. The only option she gave us was to stay in another room. I explained that all of our clothes, toiletries and medication was in the locked room; did she expect us to sleep in our clothes? Her response was “What would you like me to do?” My reply was “Do your job and find a solution to get the door unlocked.” She wouldn’t budge. A long term guest overheard what was going on and suggested she call Cisco for advice or the property general manager. Ashley’s response was “they’re not going to come out here tonight” and “Kiesha lives too far away“. She absolutely refused to do anything to get us into our room. Maybe if she called her manager she would have found out that every property has a master key to open the doors. This wasn’t just a minor inconvenience, it was a serious discomfort for a person recovering from major surgery and without medication there was a real possibility of having an Afib episode. All we were looking for was a clean comfortable place to stay and common courtesy from the staff. I will NEVER use Red Roof again!
