What guests think

At Red Carpet Inn Lancaster, guests report a budget stay with mixed experiences: some find clean, remodeled rooms and friendly staff at a low price, while others cite dirty rooms, bugs, odors, and dated, worn facilities.

Service is often kind and helpful, but several reviews mention rude interactions, strict ID policies, credit-card photocopying, and recurring key problems. Facilities are basic: the pool is typically closed during renovations, parking is easy, and there is a well-liked on-site restaurant, but breakfast is not provided beyond coffee. Room quality ranges from newly updated to very old; guests note thin walls and street noise, bright security lights with weak curtains, and occasional AC, heat, TV, or Wi-Fi issues. Overall, expect a no-frills, low-cost stay with inconsistent upkeep and service.

Says there is a pool. No pool it is covered and looks to be under going repair. Entire property has signs stating that it is in the process of renovation. This is great as it does need it. Staff very nice and friendly. Our room was tidy but walking around on the floor barefoot after a shower our feet were black. Made me wonder if they cleaned the floor. It was an average room good for the price we paid but if pool not available it shouldn't be advertised as having one.

First, know that there are two Red Carpet Inns in Lancaster. We just googled the name and ended up at the wrong one. The check-in person there acted like it happened all the time. Actually came out to the car after I walked out to warn about the other Red Carpet Inn. Told me to check their reviews before going over. Out of the two, I actually thought this one looked better than the other. There was some people that appeared to be living in the motel. They were out and about on the balcony and parking lot later than normal. We did not feel unsafe in the environment though. Very well lit parking lot. The room was as expected for the price. Clean and suitable for an overnight stay. Pool was closed for "repairs" and breakfast area was still closed because of "Covid". Wondering when hotels are going to stop using this as an excuse for limiting amenities.

It was a last minute trip on a budget! I know what you pay for you get well in this case I didn’t! I really only chose it for the free breakfast for my children and when I got up in the morning to go get the breakfast they said we don’t serve breakfast since Covid but yet they still advertise it as though they did!!! the bathroom was disgusting. All we did was come to sleep and leave!!!!

Bathroom was filthy. Rust stains around sink shower, place stunk of stale cigaretts, ask for room but was denied. Sent a person in to mop and disinfect the floors and end tables. Stayed wet all night and the burned our eyes. Had to stoop down to get under the shower. Supplied only two worn out stained towels, no shelves in the shower and only one electrical outlooked worked. Had to keep the window open all night to breath due to ammonia fumes.

This place is very run down. We did not feel safe at all and the disgusting room added to it. Go to the room and before we get in noticed the screening was cut and window open/broken. Anyone could get in! II attached picture of it here. Room smell was overwhelming; it was very dark and hot. Beds looked unclean with burns & stains. Bathroom moldy & burns. Mini fridge damaged. We were horrified. The outside was run down. It appeared that people lived there and some unsavory people lurking around. Restaurant there had a door wide open to a very messy area. There was a bag of onions sitting on the floor and nothing stopping the bugs from going in. Desk clerk was not nice. He demanded both our ID's, which I thought unusual and has never been requested of us before, but ok. We had checked out within 5 minutes, and he questioned why.. My first and foremost issue was our safety in an unsecured room! The filth and disgust and unsavory people added to it. He didn't care at all and offered no resolution. Note, there is only one picture of hotel! I didn't notice that upon booking. Now I know why. Never has this ever happened where the hotel was so bad, that we left not staying one night. Very sad and deceitful on their part. Never again with this franchise.

I got a remodel room which was very nice. Only issue I encountered when checking in the lady at front desk wanted took a copy of my credit card when I asked why she did that the reply was in case they had to charge anything extra. Seems to me like at any moment someone’s info will be easily stolen. The card information should already be in the system it makes no sense for them to want to keep a copy of it. Besides that my stay was good. I do recommend it just be careful when it comes to your personal information

My son and I stayed for tonight during his tournaments. It's not super clean but it's really acceptable and much better than other similar hotels. It wasn't included breakfast but I'm happy for that because many of hotels that offer break fast it just junk. Coffee and tea was available all the time fridge was very good in the room and also coffee maker and microwave were clean I didn't see anything that makes me bad feeling. I like it I didn't feel any bad smell inside the room or even with the beds or pillows.
