The first room they tried to put us in, the a/c didn't work, plus the bathroom door would stick on the floor when trying to close it. It wouldn't close all the way. The second room had the same problem. Finally, the third room was okay. The a/c worked and the shower was good. The quality of the entire room, in my opinion, was sub-par. I won't stay in another Red Roof Inn.
