This is not a review for a specific location. It is a general review of just how badly downhill this once proud chain has gone since the Trueman family opened it decades ago. From 1973 through 1994 Red Roof Inns were spit and polish. Top notch rooms at a fairly reasonable price. Morgan Stanley bought them out in 1994. They sold the chain to Accor in 1999. It has slowly gone down a sewer ever since. I'm not sure who owns it these days, but whoever they are, they're awful. Some locations are nice. Some are hovels. Check that, most are hovels these days. Corporate office is useless. They run some, franchise most others. I believe inconsistent is the best word I can use. My reason for posting this today is most recently my reward points, which I've saved over the past few years and have used many, many times were not honored in my recent attempts to secure a reservation without having to pay. They weren't gifts, I earned them. I never had a problem in the past. Not once ever. For the fun of it, I changed locations, I changed dates, tried weekdays, future bookings, nada. I forwarded written concerns only for their response to be an inane "apologizes but we cannot assist with booking information through email." Booking information? I asked a simple question. Answer me! I don't have a good feeling about any of this and as a result, I decided to cash out through their shop and requested online Visa Cards at a fraction of the value they would've had for overnight stays. Let's see if I get them. Whether or not they honor this, I'll still probably file carbon copy complaints with several Attorney General's offices in a few states.

In a three day span my door key was TURNED OFF forcing me to go to the front desk TWICE for NEW CARDS! But when i went to the desk each time NOBODY WAS THERE for a very LONG TIME. At one point a man entered the lobby from outside. He roamed around the lobby- it made me AFRAID FOR MY SAFETY! The person at the front desk eventually came back offering NO EXCUSES OR APOLOGY. When I called down finally asking for her name it felt like she gave me a FAKE NAME. She hesitated saying JESSE…. I asked for a last name and she stuttered saying HENRY. I am so disgusted with the RR INN I will NEVER STAY HERE AGAIN! Upon entering the room it was very DAMP… sheets and towels too. The furniture and decor is antiquated but it was the DAMPNESS that was so off putting! Thank you. ZM

This was one of the worst customer service experiences I have ever encountered, and the condition of this property is completely unacceptable. I stayed at Red Roof Inn in Jessup, MD because it was closer to my job during my transition into a new residence. I also chose this location because they advertise accommodations for one pet and it was convenient for my work situation. Unfortunately, the treatment I received and the conditions of this hotel were beyond disappointing. The first negative interaction happened on Saturday, May 16, 2026, when the front desk agent literally tossed my room key and ID across the counter instead of respectfully handing them to me. I found that behavior rude, dismissive, and disrespectful. Then on Saturday, May 23, 2026, between approximately 12 PM and 4 PM, I encountered another extremely unpleasant interaction with a front desk agent who displayed biased behavior, poor communication skills, and a complete lack of professionalism or compassion. I explained my work hours and the reason I was arriving later to settle my stay. Other staff members throughout the week had accommodated and assisted me professionally many times before without issue. There was also a temporary discrepancy involving my bank card. My bank representative informed me that I either needed to wait up to an hour for resolution or go to my local bank to retrieve cash and my card. The front desk agent was fully aware that I was actively trying to resolve the issue and make payment for my room — a room I had been paying for consistently during my stay. Instead of showing basic patience, professionalism, or customer service, the agent escalated the situation unnecessarily by calling the police to have me removed IN THE RAIN. I was humiliated and treated unfairly despite making every effort to handle the situation responsibly. To make matters worse, the overall condition of this property is terrible. This location should honestly be condemned due to the presence of roaches and rodents, poor sanitation, lack of proper housekeeping, excessive noise, and the general unsafe and unpleasant environment. The non-smoking rooms also smell heavily of cigarettes and marijuana, which completely defeats the purpose of paying for a non-smoking room. Housekeeping was inconsistent, cleanliness standards were extremely poor, and the constant disturbances made it difficult to rest peacefully after work. This experience was stressful, degrading, and completely unacceptable. Hospitality should involve professionalism, cleanliness, communication, and respect for paying guests. Sadly, this location failed in every area possible. I would strongly caution others before staying at this Red Roof Inn location! What goes around, COMES AROUND. Good luck to that Redroof location management team!

The one in Panama City is really nice and the people are awesome

I attempted to cancel a reservation for the HENDERSONVILLE, NC location due to the RE agent I was driving to see ending up in the ER the day before. The property repeatedly hung up the phone or failed to answer. I had a somewhat rude exchange with the woman I spoke with who eventually cancelled my reservation. I have not stayed at a RedRoof in several years, but will NOT book there ever again.

April 26th 2026 we stayed at the Red Roof Inn Jacksonville Airport it was awesome the staff was great the room was great I do not know these people but they treated us very well I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

I stayed at the Red Roof in Winchester Virginia 22602 for over a year. This place is a dump. And I have numerous pictures and videos to show it. I mean in broad daylight Roaches the size of beetles will come out and run away with a piece of candy. The maintenance man is ( they call him that ) is a trash man. And I mean he does trash for 5 to 6 hours a day. No no no it not that much trash. He digs in the trash and piles the stuff all over the property. He has a run down van and camper in the parking lot. The van has been there for over a year. All the crack heads take turns living there. I ask the front desk if the could please move the junk camper to other side of parking lot. The rude and I mean rude as the devil 👿👿 front desk lady , says NO the people only stay there SOMETIMES!!! WHAT!! We went 3 days with no tv ( the last time ). BEFORE THAT WE WENT 6 MONTHE WITH NO TV SOUND!! The laundry room has robbed me numerous times and I put the (MAX PAYMENT IN EVERY TIME) only to be robbed every single time because it isn't gonna dry or wash something. And your will not get your money back. I mean the list is endless. I have numerous videos and pictures of this place. I have been talking to my best friend who is a lawyer and trying to close this place down. It's truly truly a dump. If you stay here beware. You will loose lots and lots of money. I can show you where my Mom and Dad dropped thousands at this place. To only have 2 hours to leave for a window I wouldn't pay for because I did not break. Then MY WIFE,Cwent to work something out anyways and still these fools kick us out. KEEP THOUSANDS AND I MEAN THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS OF ARE STUFF AND STIILL CALL THE POLICE AND LIE AND SAY WE BROKE THE WINDOW WHEN WE DID NOT. NOT TO MENTION I WENT TO COPS MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE THIS TO ONLY BE TOLD BY SHERIFFES THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING CAUSE ITS PRIVATE PROPERTY. BUT THE MANAGER CALLS SOME OF THESE COPS AND HE WILL GET SOME TO PUT CHARGES ON PEOPLE. AND HE IS CLEARLY CLEARLY LIEING AND HE DOESN'T GIVE A CARE. I STAYED IN THIS PLACE FOR OVER A YEAR STRAIGHT AND MY ONLY THINKS OF BEING THERE PAYING EVERY DAY AND STAYING QUIET AND NOT COMPLIANING ABOUT NOTHING TO BE STOLEN OF MY PROPERTY AND KICKED OUT AND TOLD I DID SOMETHING I DIDN'T. I PROMISE YOU IF YOU STAY HERE YOU WILL LOSE. DON'T DON'T SAY NOTHING. STAY ONE NIGHT AND I MEAN ONLY IF YOU ARE REAL REAL POOR DO YOU STAY HERE. ANY PLACE AND I MEAN ANY PLACE IS BETTER THAN THIS.

Not to mention you guys took thousands from me and most nights never fully hide everything the app says where supposed to have. And never as much as a SORRY!! Much less a free night from these crooks! LISTEN, BEWARE! ITS MUCH MUCH EASIER AND SAFER TO GO TO ANY 5 OTHER PLACES IN AREA. THIS DUMP ISN'T WORTH 25 DOLLARS A NIGHT.

WIFE AND I ARDDED IT UP AND NO MORE THAN 3 times did

I recently under went spinal surgery and due to the weather conditions in Boston I booked at the Red Roof Kissimmee..WHAT A BIG MISTAKE!!, this hotel.. is a flop house for long term tenants with dogs, cats and is nothing but a high traffic hotel for people coming and going all hours of the night. If you love headlights lighting up your room, the sounds of dogs barking, ice machines getting party traffic all night, and sleep sounds of people locking and unlocking car doors all night, this might be the place for you to book your stay. Upon check in I was assigned to room 117, directly next to the ice machine..after 9 days of no HOT WATER I was informed that after "recent  upgrades"..the shower valve was installed upside down!! Lmfao. Now with the understanding I am permanently disabled, I was not given a handicap room until 9 days into my stay. In addition the the room change was a big inconvenience due to the face I could not lift anything. I did settle into a the new room, but knowing I had no car and could not drive I had to use Lyft for the 32 days I was there. The new room 103, was updated.. but definitely not ADA or handicap compliant (no grab bars near the toilet, door lock and peep hole were at normal hight and let's not forget the set of stairs you have to climb to get to the pool!!. Last but not least the washing machine was covered in a grease that ruined 3 shirts and 2 pairs of pants from construction workers washing there clothes. The resort refused to address this issue only saying the machines were not owned or operated by the Red Roof. ( NO signs to indicate you are using at your own risk) in short due to the constant disregard for customer service and the lack of response, I have put the Red Roof on notice that I am proceeding with a small claims court action.. save your the headache stay somewhere Rob
