We stayed in this hotel over graduation/Mother's Day weekend. The room was recently renovated, and was quite nice. It was very clean, and the staff was very friendly. We would definitely stay here again.

I go to Durham often to visit my daughter at school. I usually stay one night, so the Red Roof has been my quick, no frills, go to, place. The front desk staff are always friendly. On my most recent visit though, I was really concerned about my safety. The place was buzzing with what looked like a coke convention,... More

We got a non-smoking deluxe (fridge, microwave) queen room with some friends for the weekend. The staff was very nice and helpful when we checked in. The room smelled pretty musty as though it had been a smoking room, but we lived with it. The room was otherwise clean enough, although I did notice holes in the sheets, but for... More

We checked into our room and as soon as we walked in the room smelled musty. Then I noticed what looked like cigarette holes on the bedspread. I sat on bed and it reminded me of the old pull out sleep sofas that had an 2" mattress and you felt the bars underneath it. It was just terrible, I can't... More

Let me say, this was not the front desks fault. BUT........when we went into our little teeny motel room, the first thing I did (after thinking ehhh) was inspect the bed. There it was. A black curly hair............beside a STAIN on the sheet. I called the manager,and within MINUTES, he came, upgraded us to a fantastic room with CLEAN SHEETS,... More

Found this place on tripadvisor. Just looking for a reasonably priced, clean room near Duke. It fit our needs perfectly. Elevator carpet a little grungy, but our room was great. Desk clerk was polite and efficient. No complaints.

Caveat: I stayed here for 9 nights, which in hindsight, is a little long to stay in a budget motel. However, I picked it based on the reviews here, and I have to say I was disappointed. I wanted something close to where I was going to need to be, which it was -- it is very handy to local... More
