Red Roof Inn & Suites Middletown - Franklin

Honestly, this was more than a disappointment! The blinds/window looking out on the parking lot were very worn; it looked like the window needed some attention. I just trusted that nobody was going to try to break in. The strangest thing was that the TV, which was connected in the back to some kind of cable was completely unusable! I didn't bother asking for help, because in my previous encounter with the maintenance fellow he did not really speak English. So... earlier after checking in and opening the door to the room, I looked around and then went off to park the car closer to the room. As soon as I closed the door, however, I discovered that the lock you can use to deny access to anyone breaking in from the outside had slid into place, making it impossible for me to get back in the door. In the end, the maintenance guy knew what to do and fixed it with a wire that he looped around the locking mechanism and then shut the door, after which the door was able to be opened completely. It just felt a little grungy -- like the whole place was from 30 or 40 years ago, and just hadn't been kept up very well. One of my absolute worst overnight stays, sorry to say.

Its closed

I always say you get what you pay for. If you good with a lock on the door and a place to lay your head, you’re golden

Room was dirty. Air conditioning did not work very well. The hotel was very loud with people talking in the halls and doors slamming until 1 am

I actually chose not to stay after seeing the place. The staff was nice enough and tried to find me a room that didn't wreak of cigarette smoke, which we did eventually find. But I was travelling by myself and didn't feel safe there. It wasn't really the fault of the hotel exactly but more the run down aspects of the place, the general environment in the hotel and some of the other people who were staying there.
