This location imo, is not as clean or friendly as Emerson. I felt very unwelcomed. The rooms appear to be clean, but the floors are dirty. We used the towels to clean the floors after we realized how dirty our socks were. The dogs at this location also barks a lot. There are plenty of restaurants to choose from which is a plus, but staying here again....

I reserved the perfect room because of special guests that had disabilities. The parking was the best. Reserved handicap sign on the ground for parking at the door for easy access to the room. The father and son team (Mr. Patel) made our stay private and good. First time in Georgia, first time at the Red Roof. We will definitely reserve again. Appreciate the process. THANKS 😊 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

For the price it was ok we got through the stay. Room was damp and there was a leak in the bathroom! Could see water damage stains all around the ceiling! The bed felt damp the first night bc of all the moisture in the air! Staff was friendly and it was clean I saw house keeping clean the room next to me and she did not cut corners!!! And surprisingly I felt very safe this was my family first motel stay we usually stay at hotels! If you want affordable give it a try!!!

Location was convenient to the interstate. Check in was easy. Opened door to room and immediately saw 2 roaches on the door, upon inspecting the room didn’t see any other bugs. Booked a non smoking room that reeked of old cigarettes (I noticed the room right next to us was a smoking room, why do they even still allow smoking in hotels at all?!), bathroom ceiling had water damage and looked like it could have caved in at any time. It looked liked they tried to update at some time but still could use some more. This was just an overnight stop so we toughed it out. Waffle House next door was convenient

The room was relatively clean buy there was a lot of roaches in our room. The pillows were small and hard and the mattress wasnt the most comfortable. The room has alot of potential though if they get the roach situation under control.

Room reeked of urine. Sure, I knew it was an inexpensive hotel, but I was shocked by the smelly room. The handle on the dresser fell off upon touching it, the bathroom was raggedy, and the soap dispenser barely functioned. Stay away unless you happen to have a fettish for the smell of urine. It was disgusting. Room 209.

I stayed in room 117 and it was horrible! It was a room with smoking and straight up stunk. Heat, Air and fan didn't work. There was mens beard or mustache hair all over the sink and counter, blood on the door trim and I don't even want to know on the door. The beds were horrible and broken down with burn holes in the bedding. Pillows were very flat and gross! One of the worst hotels I have stayed in all around the world. Very noisy as well.

When we arrived it was a reservation for three but we only had two towels for our showers the next morning. We should have at least three since the reservation was for three people. Four is really ideal since the room can sleep four. The towels were small and very thin to begin with. The beds were very uncomfortable so none of us slept well. I am so glad to be back sleeping in my own bed. The beds had two small pillows each so they were not comfortable either. I realize this is not a 5 star hotel so you get what you pay for. I like that the room had a fake wood floor instead of carpet. It felt cleaner to me since you never know what is in carpet. I also liked that the sink was outside of the bathroom so I didn’t have to wait for everyone to shower to do my hair and make up. The man at the front when we checked in was very hard to understand but he was pleasant enough. I want to leave some positive points so this isn’t all negative. The room was very clean as well. The price was a pretty good value and again we got what we paid for. I just wish they had better mattresses and towels. I can bring my own pillow.

We have stayed 3 consecutive months in this hotel while in town for a couple of days. This hotel is clean, well kept, the owners knew our names the 2nd and 3rd trip. It’s convenient to the interstate, close to downtown Acworth and walking distance to Waffle House. We are picky about hotels and they’ve earned our business.

The Host canceled my reservation prior to arrival which resulted in a higher room rate. Upon arrival was charged approximately $50 higher/room than quoted on the app. After walking into our rooms we quickly became aware that the facility was infested with roaches, resulting in having to check out abruptly. I was informed that I would recieve a partial refund in 5 business days. The hostess at the desk was rude, and could not explain why she was charging more as well as why she charged my card after leaving the hotel again.

My family & I booked this motel 6months in advice . In my original booking ,I had stated that we wanted 2 queen beds , down stairs , because my wife is handicap & can,t climb stairs . After a 11 hour car ride , we arrived at Red Roof . #1 , incorrect address stated , #2 , they don,t have ( ANY , queen beds on ground floor . ) NONE. ! My family was disappointed by sleeping on double beds . I asked the lady there, why wasn't I notified of this ! No Comment was given . Well , we won't use Red Roof ever again.
