I have never had a problem with the condition of the rooms before, but my boyfriend cut his arm on broken shards of glass in the bed. There was dried blood on the floor and curtains. And there was busted glass outside the door. I told the manager and he blew it off

Booked with Expedia which was simple and affordable I get to the red roof inn and was told they didn’t have my room that I had booked 7 days prior and he said he couldn’t help me at all and he couldn’t have cared less. It’s a sketchy area with homeless camps

Everything was great except when we went for dinner, 3 of the entrees we ordered were not available. We wanted steak, prime rib & filets and appetizers were not available. Your menu should be revised.

Two towels per room since it was a room with two beds. When asked for two additional towels, the girl in the front said “no.” My daughter called and threatened to leave a bad review, then the girl said we could pick only one towel.
