Verified Reviews of Red Roof Inn & Suites University
Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:"Dirty"
Overall Score2.0/ 5
My room was dirty, not enough toilet paper, and not enough towels. The room did not get even looked at within the four nights we were here. There was a cockroach in the tub and flies in the room. The slider door was also not able to be locked.
