rude, nasty service & bugs
I stayed at the Jessup Maryland Red Roof Inn March 27, 2010.
The room had these bugs in them, and when I called the office they came out to see the bugs. They tried to tell me they were "normal maryland bugs" that they couldn't stop getting into the room. The manager was willing to change the room, but the room he put us in had urine on the floor in the bathroom. Because it was late at night there was no house keeping, and by the next day they still didn't clean the room. We asked for a refund, but they wouldn't give it. We said we rather stay at another place, but they said the card was charged and because they were willing to give us a new room that we had to stay.
The new room had NO HEAT and smelled so bad they gave us a spray bottle to use.
We refused to stay, and the front desk lady became so nasty she insulted me and my boyfriend with slurs and threats. We left, and rent at another Hotel and when we called to complain they said they had no history of us staying there and deny all claims BUT they charged us 89.00 for the night.
I advise people to STAY AWAY from there. I wish I read these complaints before i booked there. I still have not had my money refunded.

Attempted to sleep at the Red Roof Inn in Salem, New Hampshire on Dec 2, 2009. Took a room on the first floor. The room smelled bad and the linens were dirty with human hair and had burn holes all the way through. 2 hours later I awoke and found bed bugs on the bed and on the floor. I had my money refunded after a month, but thought this place should be leveled. Don't stay there it isn't worth the worry of infecting your luggage, vehicle and your home! The new manager said she'd call and let me know if they found bugs. This has never happened as of 1/19/2010.

The one I stayed had cockroaches.
overcharged
My husband, young son, and I were recent guests at a property in Belleville Michigan. Arrived Thursday/Friday at 1 a.m. after a 5 hour drive, took everything into the room, unpacked, was getting ready for a shower and oh my god was the room a disgusting mess... urine everywhere in the bathroom, as if someone had a peeing contest. It was evident that thi...
Read full review of Red Roof Innhorrible hotel... stay away
I booked this hotel through Priceline as a two-star hotel. When my daughter and I arrived at mid-night, there was no clerk just the bookkeeper checking guests in and he clearly had no idea what he was doing. I asked for a newly remodeled room...what a joke...the bathroom floor was all moldy, the tub was moldy and metal was showing through the tub, the vent had no cover and spiders and nests were living there for some time, the floor had not been vacuumed for some time, there were no tables or chairs, the curtain was half hung, and the bed sheets smelled badly. The parking lot was full and only had enough spaces for about half of the rooms so we were sent down the road to rent a space from another vendor. This hotel was a dump and should be rated minus two. Priceline is not taking ownership of this complaint and the Red Roof Inn policy reads 'If you are not satisfied, we will refund your money!" I am still waiting! By the way folks, Priceline cannot be trusted either...the last time we stayed in Seattle through Priceline, we had a shoot-out in front of our hotel which was in a bad part of town and also not rated properly by Priceline as well! I think these companies are too big and feel they can rip us off...stay away from Red Roof, they are getting a lot of complaints!

when travling from new england to fl., we stopped in williansport md. at a red roof inn. the free booklets said, free pet clean rest, on premisses, 53.99. guess what, no roomsd when they saw the booklet, when i explained the booklet was out dted and i would go somewhere else. they came up with a room 61.00. why, i still dont know. When we entered the room, it seemed clean, until, i opened a draw, there was a empty dounut box whith pieces of dounuts in it, the refeg, had milk in it, the remote for the tv didnt woek, and the 24 hr. resturant they said was on premesses, was a waffle house on the property, not premesses the best part is when i checked in, i wanted to pay cash, well ok, but you had to show id. and credit card why, because they claim too many drug dealers who klive locally had came there, so if they hold your acredit card number, and hold the amount of the room, (which you get back in up too 5 days) if theres anything wrong they keep your money. people be where of this hotel. you basicly get overcharged in my opinion because you pay cash and then they hold more money for days . i asked the clerk the next morning if the attorny general knew of this and all of a suddden i was given back 11.00 because the room was not clean.
we travel sometimes 4 times a yr. and never been to such a terrible red roof.
Priceline does not rate the hotels. Priceline just made the reservation.
Internet pricing and customer service
I got a price on the internet. Their website quoted me a 3 night stay for $116.98. When I booked the rooms, their reservation switched my resevation dates to only 2 nights for the same price. Their recap on the same page still listed 3 nights. I even printed the pages and to show them. I called Red Roofs customer service line. They told me that they had never seen that happen but they are having trouble with their internet site. Anyhow bottom line is they quoted a 3 night stay at a price and will not honor it. I told them I thoght it was wrong and I probably would cancel my reservations and they said they didnt care. I also called their head of marketing 4 days ago at their corporate office and he hasnt had the time to get back with me either. Shocking isnt it? False advertising or what. Stay away from thier website, and thier hotels if this is the way they do business. They just dont seem to care even when they admit their wrong.

Even though its an honest error, they should have to honor the rates quoted.
Awful experience
I was a Red Roof Inn employee and I was grabbed in the chest and my breast was shook, it also happened to another employee. I was chased by the manager while she was holding a sausage in front of her crotch screaming that its not big enough for me, while she was drunk partying with the renovation crew and some corporate employees during the renovation of...

I rented a room for 1 night due to my wife and I losing power at home. We called the Reservation Phone line and asked for the closest Red Roof Inn to our home that still had power. I asked specifically for a NON-Smoking Room as my wife has asthma, I have sleep apnea and we are both sensitive to Smoke. After several short minutes it seemed everything was in...

Stay away from Red Roof Inn. Particularly the one in Williamsburg, Virginia. We went for a vacation and checked out a day early. The bill was $247 and charged to a credit card for that amount. When I received the credit card bill, the amount billed by Red Roof Inn was $308. The corporate office refused to correct the charge saying it was the business of...

What is it with Red Roof and urine all over the place? I thought our urine incident in Red Roof in Austin TX was maybe an isolated incident, but reading these complaints about Red Roof all over the country, it seems it must be a right of passage for RR employees to "mark" each room in every RR motel everywhere. Disgusting!
