We like staying in Red Roof Inns when we stay with our cat. They accept our little furry friend, are generally clean and fairly priced. My only complaint about this particular property is that one of the local trucking companies use this hotel to house it's drivers that are waiting for loads and going to training. Mind you, I don't... More

The staff of the hotel was courteous and friendly and the continental breakfast was great for the price. My room was neat and clean and was easily accessible. It was snowing and the staff maintained sidewalks and parking lot extremely well. Highly impressed, will stay there again. More

Thought it was rather ironic that the hotel had posted "Recommended by Trip Advisor" on the entryway. This place was a run down sad sack mess. Our room smelled like the inside of a Taco Bell. The bathroom was so tiny you literally had to sit on the toilet to close the door. Got very little sleep thanks to 2... More

Dear Guest, I understand that you did not make your reservations, but another party made the reservations through a 3rd party such as Expedia. Unfortunately, 3rd party sites such as those, do not allow for room type requests. We at the hotel are not able to alter anything on a 3rd party reservation, including changing of room types. We are... More

We stayed at the Red Roof in Cedar Rapids while going to the Taste of Louisianan Festival in Amana Colonies. We've always had good luck with Red Roof, and this one was good. The room was fairly clean and the breakfast was good. More

I was very disapointed with the room I had. It had a funny odor, VERY stained towels, and stains on the chairs. Shower had some mold (ceiling as well). But it all depends on what you expect for under $50. The outside environment made me extremely uncomfortable. Several people wandering around, could be homeless, but I suspect by their actions...

Lobby area was nice. All of the staff were very pleasant and customer service oriented. Rooms were older but at inexpensive rates. Beds were comfortable but bedding was smokey and spotted. Noticed 3 police officers and a drug dog searching the floors. I got the impression people are housed there. Also had night worker guests who were friendly but sat... More

We have stayed at here several times both as a Fairfield Inn and a Red Roof Inn. There are many good things to say about the place. The rooms are fine, beds great and the staff fabulous.
