I got double charged my 2and day of a 2 week stay which they could do nothing about even though it happened to many different guests on different occassions, luckily my card took care of that issue, clean room. Good service and they don't charge for pets, it still cost over $ 400. And they charge dayvby day and not in advance.

My husband, two kids, and I recently stayed for 1 night at the Red Roof Inn located in Columbus, MS. We requested a room with 2 double beds, and when we arrived, the lady at the front desk upgraded our room to a superior one. The room was clean and nicely decorated with lots of new finishes. Our one complaint was that it took several hours for the a/c unit to cool the room down adequately.

Staff was very friendly, outside appearance was clean and well kept. The room I stayed in was newly renovated and very clean. The bed was very comfy and the sheets were white, clean, and no stains. The bathroom was also newly renovated and the towels were white, clean, and no stains. The room keys are the new style chip keys, so I didn't have to make numerous trips to the front desk to get a new slide key, very nice. Plenty of parking for trucks and trailers. Overall, it was a quiet, clean, and comfy place to stay. I will stay there again, if I am in that area. Oh yeah, there is a great little bar b que restaurant across the street.

The room was clean & comfortable. The lady at the front desk was helpful & very kind. We were so thankful to have a place to go with power/ water/ heat due ours being out from the ice storm, even if it meant driving an hour or more to find it. There were no rooms available closer to home.

I actually booked next door at first, but didn't feel safe. I moved here and they made it work for me with my dog. Clean, friendly and safe as they do have security cameras on site. No pet fees! And they have smoking rooms available.
