Refusal to Cancel Booking for wrong date
We didn’t get to stay here. When booking, I accidentally clicked on Friday Oct 11 instead of Oct 4 when we were heading south for vacation. We thought it would be a good halfway stop for the family. I was lucky and only booked 1 of the 2 rooms I needed. Within 1 minute, I realized my mistake and messaged the hotel. No reply. The next morning I called the hotel and they said it was non refundable. I said that is fine but if they would cancel the room that I would actually book 2 rooms for my family of 6. They said the manager would have to do it. I then sent customer service through hotels.com a message to help. They had no success. Finally I called the hotel and explained the situation again. I tried diligently to explain that I actually needed 2 rooms for Oct 4 and all they had to do was cancel the reservation that I accidentally made for Oct 11. They refused and actually lost out on business. They can have the 1 night rate that I paid through hotels.com but I encourage everyone to pass on booking at this hotel as they are greedy people that don’t understand customer service and business. I hope all of you read this review.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Room floor was filthy. Asked specifically for floor to be cleaned to no avail. Laundry facility was so dirty and cluttered with trash it wasn’t useable. Trash and garbage jammed in overflowing can under the stairways. We left a day before our reservation ended. After complaining to the property they told me they wouldn’t issue a refund for the unused portion of our stay because we made the reservation through Expedia. Will never use Red Roof Inn again. Will never use Expedia again.

Pet friendly materials used in construction. Staff was polite and courteous but bound by a strict interpretation of rules which led them to have to constantly check with a manager to perform basic duties. Rooms in need of repair for peeling paint, noisy pipes, and shoddy grout work. Overall the stay was quiet and the staff did as much as they were permitted to do. The complimentary breakfast was a pleasant surprise!

I swear we did the fingernail test on a big mirror on the wall in the room. According to Google, if theres no gap, its a 2 way mirror. Come to find out, room 105 is side by side to a laundry room. Very sketchy when I see the laundry room and then 3 men who clean the rooms, shut the door so we couldn't see in there. VERY SKETCHY!
