레드 루프 인 메릴빌(Red Roof Inn Merrillville)

I do wish that I had read reviews of this hotel before booking it. I have stayed at several Red Roof Inns and was always satisfied until this one. The hotel is badly in need of maintenance and repair, and it was not clean. The supplies were minimal. We had to go ask for a roll of toilet paper because the one on the dispenser was nearly gone and there was no extra one. One of the double beds had broken springs on one side. The essentials were there: The TV worked, there was hot water, and there was heat. But I won't even say it was tolerable at the price because we stayed in another Red Roof in Deerfield, IL the following night and that one was cheaper and in excellent condition. Now that I have read other reviews, I can only suggest that you stop apologizing to guests (we won't be back) and start investing in the hotel.

First the pros: Staff was very friendly and tried their best to help with problems, the ice machine was super at spitting out a large quantity of ice, the HVAC was decent, sink and toilet were clean, bedding was clean. The cons: A lot of loud people out in the parking lot until 2 am, refrigerator and microwave were extremely dirty, floor looked like it hadn't been swept, TV screen and mirrors had a dirty film on them, there were no towels in the room I had to ask for them, TV remote didn't work had to ask for a new one, telephone in room had no handset cord or cord to the wall really not sure why it was even there, the building itself seemed really old and dilapidated. Supposed to be a smoke free room, but it smelled like smoke. My stay for only for 2 nights, I would not recommend for a longer stay.

There was black mold in the Bathroom, with grime and dirt on the walls in the bathroom. Flooring was peeling up. The rails and steps to the upper floors showed severe rusting and big gaps. Especially on the stairs, the welds looked like they would not take much before the stairs collapsed. This was the same for the rails on the upper floor. Rusted out bad.

For budget-conscious travelers who aren't too picky. It's not very clean, but I've slept in worse for that price.

It’s run down and dirty. The rooms smell bad, you can tell they don’t change the sheets in between customers out first room had blood on the covers and was dirty we switched rooms and there was hair all over the bed from the previous customer. The bed wasn’t comfortable at all we had to sleep on top of the covers and we had to go buy our own blanket from wal mart to cover the bed and cover ourselves. I was very disappointed with this hotel. The reviews and pictures I feel are faked in order to get ppl to stay there. Never again.

The first room we were given was propped open, the manager told us it was fine to go in, but there were bugs already in there, it smelled like smoke and the sheets were dirty. We got a second room that was better l, but there were no pillows covers, there is mold in the shower, and no towels. The sheets were also still not the cleanest.

The lady working was very friendly and helpful. I did feel a little unsafe. The area has changed since i was last there. But the lady working was very friendly.

Room was not clean at all bedding, dirty floors sink mirrors, microwave dirty not cleaned. No toilette paper, no towels. Dog droppings sliver grass not ckk lol waned up. Person at front counter pleasant and helpful.

The floor near the front door/AC unit leaked water. Under the cheap flooring do it was warped and bubbly. The tub had a dirt ring that could rub off with my finger (NOT CLEANED BETWEEN CLIENTS). No hair dryers. The mattress was a lumpy mess. Will never stay here again. Not worth $80 a night!!!
