Motels in Ohio, United States

I stayed here twice recently - once heading west and then heading back home. It was convenient to the highway, which was one feature that I was looking for. On my way out there, I was on the phone with the day desk to relay that I might be getting in a bit late, but wasn't sure if I could make it due to snow on the way, etc. He was very professional and courteous and helpful on the phone - it almost made me feel like a friend. When I got in at night, the night clerk was courteous, and everything went well. The room was no frills, and the bed a bit firm, but I slept well with no issues. The room was clean and served its purpose. The staff were good, as the day guy I talked to on the phone was at the desk in the morning and remembered that I was having difficulty in getting there the evening before. I also got a coffee from the coffee bar set up in the lobby to get me on the road. As I was quite satisfied with the room and staff and location - I reserved a room for 2 weeks later upon my return. I upgraded to one with a fridge and microwave since I had food with me. This also had a little writing desk, which I found useful. Again, staff were courteous - the day guy remembered me and greeted me, and the cleaning woman the next morning was very friendly and said that she remembered me from my earlier stay. As it was convenient, courteous and clean, I will be staying here again as I travel through Ohio.

I'm not from out of town, but needed a room for the upcoming night, due to repairs at my house. I checked the rates and availability online before arriving. Good location right off of Bagley Road, near I-71. Near restaurants, the hospital, and movie theater. Downside: you can tell as soon as you pull in the driveway, that something is off. A group of people, who appear to be the housekeeping staff, are lounging on the sidewalk, conversing (or, ”conversatin'”) right outside the entrance. Not a welcoming sight. Walking in, you notice the trash on the carpet. I didn't take a close look, but crumpled papers or wrappers or whatever scattered around the check-in area. Again, that kind of thing does not give you the feeling of welcome or cleanliness. I waited while the desk clerk talked to a guest/friend/coworker- I don't know. They seemed amused that I was standing there. The clerk greeted me. I told her that I wanted to know if I could reserve a room. She said the rooms aren't ready until 2pm- it was 11 o'clock am. I asked if I could simply make a reservation, to check in later. I had my suitcase with me. She said no. I would have to wait until 2, even to make a reservation. ??? Judging by appearances that this was not a nice place, I thanked her and decided to move on. Eventually checked in to the Quality Inn in Brunswick. Cheap rates are not worth this kind of environment.

I thought it was okay. I got there late the clerk was efficient and directed me to my room. Do be aware the iron in the room was missing. Not that I needed it but it wasn’t present upon my arrival. The room was decent enough and I would stay there again. Though the room did smell somewhat smoky for a nonsmoking room. It was late and not too bad, I went to bed.

The room that was arranged at the beginning did not even hit, but the front desk gave the room a lot. The traffic is very convenient, just off Highway 90, not far from the beach of Lake Erie. The breakfast was average, the cake was sticky and it was difficult to swallow.

There was pubic hair in the sheets of my bed and on my bathroom towels. I had a reservation made several weeks earlier and was entitled to come at around 10 pm when I arrived. I didn't need to get a harassing call to see if I was still coming so they could give my ”last room” to someone else. The microwave and the refrigerator did not work. The refrigerator had one setting- freezing. My sodas were frozen solid in the morning. The microwave would not work at all. I couldn't cook the food I had saved for breakfast. The front desk had no idea of how to get the microwave to work and refused to do anything about it. I wrote a nasty review on their survey. I got an obviously prefabbed response from Red Roof Inn Corporate and from the Front Desk. They promised to ”make some changes”. Yeah- right- all you care about is that you got my money. That's the last money you will get from me. Do not even think of staying in this filthy, disgusting place. If I could give this place a zero on this site, I would. I gave them a zero on the Red Roof Inn Questionnaire. There are plenty of other, more reputable hotels in this area. If my travels for business take me there again, I will stay at one of them - not Red Roof Inn. I hope that my review prevents someone else from having the nasty experience that I had. Also - it was nonsmoking in theory- but people could smoke like fiends outside of the rooms. You may as well have been in a smoking room as the smoke easily permeated the doors and walls of the room.

I reserved an ACCESSIBLE room on the first floor for today and tomorrow. Check in time was 3pm, I arrived at 6:30pm. When I checked in, I was told that the non-smoking accessible rooms on the first floor were all taken. I asked how that could be, because I had a valid reservation for one. I had just confirmed the reservation with the front desk the afternoon before. When the clerk asked me if I had asked to have an accessible room ”set aside”, I said, ”No, because I had a valid, confirmed, reservation for that room.” I was given a non-accessible room on the 3rd floor. I am wearing a leg brace due to a knee injury. The toilet is too low to get off of without the use of my crutches, and taking a shower will be difficult without the extra hand rails and not being able to walk in vs. having to step into the tub. When I came back downstairs to get some items in my car, I made a comment to the clerk about the toilet being too low for me. He said, ”Well, if the gentleman who has been promised the room comes in, and he doesn't need it, the I can switch you to that room.” I looked at him in disbelief and said, ”I had reserved that room months ago. Why was it promised to someone who isn't even here? Is that what a reservation is supposed to be for???? Thank God I'm not in a wheelchair, I don't know what I would have done.” The clerk did apologize, but it doesn't fix anything. I will not stay at another Choice hotels brand. This is my last stay.

A motel, just off the road! Breakfast is average, but can meet the basic needs, mainly bread, surprise is to do waffle, drinks: coffee, juice, and cereals and yogurt! Very close to the gas station, walk for 5 minutes; drive 10 minutes from Wal-Mart, 24 hours, great, everything! Suitable for driving, parking is convenient!

The only good thing about this hotel was the staff. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. We were treated with kindness and made to feel welcome. Now the rest of the visit...this was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. It was part of a package deal that included tickets to the Rock and Roll HOF which is the only reason we booked it. The landscaping had not been maintained and was basically an overgrown jungle. We had a total of 3 rooms for our group. Every room had multiple issues but I will list them all together: no cups, no coffee, no cream/sugar, mold in the bathroom, no ice bucket, hair dryer and coffee maker that didn't work (hair dryer actually shot out sparks), a twin size blanket on a queen bed, broken lock on room door....I could go on but I think you understand our disappointment.

It is an ordinary motel, which is convenient when it comes down at high speed. The facilities are outdated and the breakfast is average. Travellers who are not too demanding can still choose.
