What guests think
At Red Carpet Inn-Indian Head, guests report a mix of experiences, with friendly staff and convenient, well‑lit parking balanced by recurring issues like a frequently out‑of‑service elevator, noticeable smoke or musty odors, and varying cleanliness standards.
Rooms are basic and aging, though some are remodeled with comfortable beds; noise can be an issue, and bathrooms tend to be small. Location feedback is mixed—some find it convenient and quiet, while others note limited nearby breakfast options and a sketchy feel. Expect a budget stay with solid parking and generally kind service, but be prepared for inconsistencies.

Smelled cannabis at entrance. Ventilation fan in the bathroom extremely noisey when switched on. Clerk at front desk would not give me a copy of the document she asked me to sign - I offered to pay for the copy as well. Should I visit again - I'll take a pic of the doc with my phone camera before returning it to the desk clerk. The hotel was quite clean and quiet. Parking lot was well lit with plenty of parking. Overall it was a good visit for an over night stay.

The property has been poorly kept. The outside is rundown, old, & musty. The inside needs true elbow grease but no one has attempted or cared. The glass/mirrors have not been cleaned since COVID, inside or out. Their elevator has been out of service I would guarantee for months, if not years & our room was on the 3rd fl. The toilet and tub need to be demolished and replaced since no one cares to actually clean them. The BEDS!!!! There were piss stains on each mattress (2) and both sets of bed sheets. Completely disgusting. Using a washing machine would seem to be the easiest, less evasive way to clean but apparently again, no one cares. One mattress the piss stain was soaked and saturated bc the stain was super yellow. The other mattress, at least the stain was only concentrated on the outer edge of the piss ring. Potential promise? The hotel’s condition is too sad 2 even say its convenient 4 sleeping & showering bc thats all a hotel shud b meant 4, if its not a resort but…Chance it at ur own risk bc I wont again.

This inn is aging but adequate for someone needing a bed and night’s rest. However lack of family supporting amenities and nearby family dining make it a very poor choice for families. The inn has 3 floors and the elevator did not work during the 5 days we visited. The air conditioning was broken in the first room on the third floor we were assigned. No continental breakfast, just coffee in the lobby. Restaurants nearby are not breakfast oriented and are closed several days weekly. You need to drive 10 miles to find a good restaurant. Beds are comfortable and the staff is helpful and accommodating. The inn is adequate and the price is right for a single person needing a rest or working ing the area.

This property is quiet and safe. The rooms are a bit small and the whole facility smells of cigarettes. We had a non smoking room and our bed spreads and furniture had cigarette burns on them. It’s a safe and convenient location to sleep for the night. I greatly appreciate their low fees and early check in policy. I will come back again because I travel to the area often.

Let me start off by saying every one of the staff members we interacted with was extremely cordial. No issues there at all. (The recommendation to eat at Annie's Southern Kitchen was excellent!) However, there seemed to be a lot of refuse around the back and sides of the property. Lots of handwritten signs saying to do this and cautioning against doing that. Noisy with other guests stomping on floor above us. Bathroom was very small and grout could be cleaner. Shower head needs dipped in CLR or soaked in vinegar. Hair dryer was inoperable. The floor, bedding and towels were clean and new. Bed was comfortable, but bed frame too long... We kept bumping our feet on it. The room smelled like what everyone else has said (cigarette and/or marijuana smoke). (We purchased an inexpensive can of Linen Fresh disinfectant spray and sprayed the drapes and shower curtain...it helped tremendously!) This location needs a nicer hotel and this place could be better if the owners put a little more money into it.

The shower/tub drained as we showered (I hate standing my in shower water.) checkin and checkout was quick and convenient.

The room itself was nice and mostly clean. The hallway smelled and it was pretty noisy. The noise isolation was bad in the rooms, heating stomping from upstairs and yelling in the hall woke me up a few times. Area was a little sketchy. It sounded like someone OD’d one night too, I heard them call EMS. Seems to be a place for drug users. The price was fair but if that kind of thing is a turn off I’d pick somewhere else, but overall it was alright.

The area is quaint and has a small country town feel. Also, it's a lot of good BBQ restaurants in the area, and quite a few parks. What I do not like is that the lady manager I believe the owner is not a people person, no greeting whatsoever.

The room itself was nice and mostly clean. The hallway smelled and it was pretty noisy. The noise isolation was bad in the rooms, heating stomping from upstairs and yelling in the hall woke me up a few times. Area was a little sketchy. It sounded like someone OD’d one night too, I heard them call EMS. Seems to be a place for drug users. The price was fair but if that kind of thing is a turn off I’d pick somewhere else, but overall it was alright.

The staff are great. Room was nice and clean and the tv has plenty of channels. Also within a short driving distance of plenty of places to eat.

The rooms were very clean and motel staff very accommodating. Although off the beaten path, the price charged was more than reasonable for a holiday weekend. Restaurants were within five minutes. If back in DC again, I will stay there.

We liked the location it was very close to the family we were there to visit and we liked the restaurants accross the street from the hotel they had delicouse seafood. Staff was very friendly and accomidating! People in the area we supper friendly!!! We did not have cold water in the sink only water came out when you put the handle in the hot water side. We did not report it till day we left as we did not want to leave the first floor room.

Let me start off by saying every one of the staff members we interacted with was extremely cordial. No issues there at all. (The recommendation to eat at Annie's Southern Kitchen was excellent!) However, there seemed to be a lot of refuse around the back and sides of the property. Lots of handwritten signs saying to do this and cautioning against doing that. Noisy with other guests stomping on floor above us. Bathroom was very small and grout could be cleaner. Shower head needs dipped in CLR or soaked in vinegar. Hair dryer was inoperable. The floor, bedding and towels were clean and new. Bed was comfortable, but bed frame too long... We kept bumping our feet on it. The room smelled like what everyone else has said (cigarette and/or marijuana smoke). (We purchased an inexpensive can of Linen Fresh disinfectant spray and sprayed the drapes and shower curtain...it helped tremendously!) This location needs a nicer hotel and this place could be better if the owners put a little more money into it.

This inn is aging but adequate for someone needing a bed and night’s rest. However lack of family supporting amenities and nearby family dining make it a very poor choice for families. The inn has 3 floors and the elevator did not work during the 5 days we visited. The air conditioning was broken in the first room on the third floor we were assigned. No continental breakfast, just coffee in the lobby. Restaurants nearby are not breakfast oriented and are closed several days weekly. You need to drive 10 miles to find a good restaurant. Beds are comfortable and the staff is helpful and accommodating. The inn is adequate and the price is right for a single person needing a rest or working ing the area.

The area is quaint and has a small country town feel. Also, it's a lot of good BBQ restaurants in the area, and quite a few parks. What I do not like is that the lady manager I believe the owner is not a people person, no greeting whatsoever.
