Краткий обзор: A utilitarian highway motel that trades sleep quality and modern hygiene for rock-bottom prices.

Подтверждено @Pbc968: I needed a quick place to crash while driving through Iowa and this spot was perfect. For $58, getting a King bed and a clean room right off the highway was exactly what I needed. Nothing fancy, but it got the job done for a great price.

The hype

Travelers appreciate the friendly staff and low price, but consistently complain about the noise and worn-out bathrooms.

Reality check

The 'free breakfast' is often just coffee, juice, and a sad waffle; don't expect a real meal.

  • You are traveling with a dog and refuse to pay pet fees
  • You just need a place to shower and sleep for under $70
  • You are visiting ISU on a shoestring budget

Чистота и уход

5.5
  • Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Some guests find it 'spotless', others report missed trash and dust bunnies.
  • Bathroom hygiene: The biggest weak point. Expect dated tubs, potential hair in drains, and worn grout.
  • Maintenance: Aging property. Reports of broken outlet covers, peeling paint, and slow drains are common.
  • Linens & towels: Functional but scratchy. Inspect sheets for stains immediately upon arrival.
  • Odors & scents: Often carries a mix of stale air and strong cleaning chemicals to mask it.

FAQ и советы

Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.

Is there really a pool?

No. While some third-party sites or the neighboring Sonesta listing might mention one, this Red Roof Inn does not have an operational pool.

Is breakfast actually free?

Yes, but it's a bare-bones 'grab and go' style: think coffee, juice, cereal, and maybe a waffle. Go to a local diner for real food.

How much is the pet fee?

$0. Red Roof Inn's 'Pets Stay Free' policy applies here (usually 1 pet up to 80lbs).

Is there an elevator?

No. This is a two-story motel with stairs only.

How far is it from Iowa State University?

About 3 miles, or a quick 5-10 minute drive down the highway.

Is the Wi-Fi good enough for video calls?

Surprisingly decent. Most guests report speeds of 50+ Mbps, adequate for streaming.

Советы инсайдеров

  • ✨

    The 'Sonesta Essential' next door (or at the same address) sometimes causes confusion—double-check the sign before walking into the lobby.

  • ✨

    The vending machines are often empty; buy snacks at the gas station down the road before checking in.

  • ✨

    Ask to see the room before accepting the key—cleanliness varies wildly from room to room.

5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой

  • 💡The 'non-smoking' rooms can sometimes still have a faint stale smoke smell.

  • 💡The bathroom fans are incredibly loud (or non-existent).

  • 💡There are reports of 'dead bugs' in reviews from 2022—check your mattress seams.

  • 💡The 'business center' is usually just a computer in the lobby that may or may not work.

  • 💡You might find construction crews staying here long-term, which means early morning truck noise.
