In town for The Game
Not sure what the extra amenities were, we got the upgraded bedding & snack rooms. Decaf coffee, mini-fridge & microwave. Bedding didn’t seem upgraded beyond simple hotel sheets, blankets, & pillows. Room was clean but a number of spots in the room could use repaired and repainted. Overall though a satisfactory stay, will probably stay again.

Nasty hotel.
So dirty. Mold coming down from the walls. Nobody came and brought us clean towels. We had to go get our own toilet paper. It was the worst hotel I’ve we’ve stayed in.

Good stay
It was a fun stay. The Red Roof inn is very close to Ohio Stadium. This is the reason we picked it. It is basically a 2 star hotel if that. The staff was kinda friendly. Room was clean, but in need of a huge makeover.

Suitable-Upcharged?
This was our second time staying here. Disappointed that it cost $60.00 more than booking price online. I realize that fee and taxes are added but that was too much. Otherwise it was suitable.
