The hotel is in horrible conditions and not at all like in the photos. Facilities are old an run down. Room smells of mold and feel not safe to breath. Bed linings have cigarette burn holes in it. Walls are stained. Carpet is wet. I checked out as soon as we got in and did not get my money back.

Absolutely nothing unique and the room was in terrible shape with a series of things broken and not working in the room. The steps going to the second floor were dangerous. The coffee maker in the lobby was broken when we arrived. We arrived at 9pm and the lobby clerk had to have another employee check to see if the room was clean. Many additional complaints that I have actually written down.

There was blood on the counter, the toilet was not cleaned. There was black mold or mildew in LARGE quantities on the bathroom ceiling. The pain was chunking off the walls, not peeling, the walls looked like someone ran dirty hands and feet all over them. The drawers in the dresser were broken off. The check in staff was rude and on a personal call that sounded like a hook up. The second staff I spoke to later to ask for a towel handed me one I asked for a second and they stated they were out of towels. And I’m pretty sure there was a working girl in one of the units judging by the traffic in and out of the room. All in all TERRIBLE

I filled out online with the Red Roof local web site that I had a funeral to attend at 1:00pm I requested a early check. When I got there they could not find my reservations plus I had to pay $30.00 extra for early check in and I have never had to do that my entire life and I am 73 years old. Assessment of the Room 301 was no liquid soap in sink by bathroom and no liquid soap or shampoo in the shower either. Something told me to get out of there that the place would be rough at nite. Doors were open to some rooms on the 1st floor and people were wandering around the parking as well. I have mags wheels on my vehicle and something told me they would be gone if stayed that nite. once I changed close for the funeral I turned in my key and left and did not return and drove 4 hours back home after the funeral. This place needs to be inspected thoroughly and be shut down. I believe you will find they have some long term tenants staying there as well. Right before I checked in another guy brought his key back and said an emergency came up and he needed to cancel his room as well!

Hello John, Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your stay at the Red Roof Inn Durham - Duke Univ Medical Center. I am disappointed that your experience did not meet your full expectations, as you indicated that your reservation could not be found, room 301 needs to be assess along with the other concerns mentioned. Please accept our sincerest apologies for the impact this had on your stay. While Red Roof's goal is to provide clean and comfortable accommodations for all our guests, it seems that we have fell short with you, so I am making the staff aware of your review score and will ask for room 301 to be inspected.

While the property itself is clean and presentable, and the beds very tidy and nicely made, the rooms are in serious need of maintenance! From the floorboards coming up, to the door being scratched by dogs, and the carbon monoxide detector ripped from the wall, to the spackle job done on the tub insert that looked like a toddler had done it, the conditions were gross. What really sealed the deal however, was the three cockroaches that were at home in the bathroom and sink area. Just too much! I booked two nights but left before the second night even though management kindly offered me another room. I did inspect the new room as well and the bathtub situation appeared just as bad, sadly.
Dogs must have been stuck inside forever!
Non-existent carbon monoxide detector
Bathroom repairs?

Didn't love it, didn't hate it. Overall good.
We moved to the area and stayed here for 2 weeks. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was OK. Not super clean and the maintenance wasn't great (no remote, lights didn't work, windows didn't open, AC filter was dirty) but it was pretty quiet, in a decent neighborhood with access to multiple stores, right down the street; close to the freeway, great location. Would've liked a fridge and microwave. Overall, not bad.

Great value. I saw the other reviews, so I was a little wary at first. And I could see how the noise could be a problem, since all rooms face the street. That said, we stayed two nights and all was fine. Pros: 1/2 the price of the next lowest priced hotel in the area. Pets stay free. Clean! Big, comfortable king-sized bed. Enough lights and electric sockets. Shower pressure was fine with plenty of hot water. AC worked fine. TV 24/7 coffee, decaf & hot water in the office. Everything you might want is within walking/ 5 minute drive. Cons: Cramped -- bed takes up most of the room. While the room had a desk, chair, TV, there wasn't much room to spread out -- if that's important to you. Also, my room did not come with a microwave & fridge -- if I wanted them, they would charge me an extra $45 (I declined). And like I said, I was there on a Monday-Wed, and it was quiet. But I could see how, depending on who checked in, it could be noisy. So overall, great value compared to similar options. I would definitely stay here again.
