Verified Reviews of Red Roof Inn Ames
Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently: "Sleepless in Ames."
Overall Score1.0/ 5
Rooms were clean but in need of demolition. Moved twice, once after falling asleep. Room heat was stifling and clooling blew hot air. Plumbing was slow and effective only after multiple flushes. (not to worry, they are upgrading plumbing on 2ndfloor we were on 1st) TV in neither room allowed channel changes. Toilet seat was pitted. Breakfast was less than average. Based on this will never go back to Red Roof Inn.

Testimonials:
"I wish I knew about you guys sooner, I've enjoyed being able to come home and go to the computer and see lots of hotels asking me to stay with them. (almost like that commercial, when the banks fight over getting your business) Will recommend to others and can't wait to use the service again myself." P.C. - Philadelphia, PA
