Red Roof Inn Kenly - I-95

"Worse experience we've ever had. We reserved a room through Agoda which I highly recommend using. We showed up a few days early to look at a room to see what it looked like. As soon as we went in abd asked he wanted to see our ID. Once he saw that we were locals, his entire demeanor changed. He became hostile in his attitude. He aggressively stated that we couldn't book 30 day stays but 28 days we could based on local, state ordinance that stated this. He continued on that it was because of us locals setting up shop to either sell drugs or open an escort business out of the room. He said that he would honor the reservation but demanded a $200 cash deposit to cover the destruction in the room. We were given a key card to go look. The rooms were dirty, smaller really bad and the stairs leafing up to the rooms were damaged making our way very dangerous. Locals and travelers beware. This place should be condemned. STAY AWAY KEEP GOING TO SMITHFIELD"

"The place isn't bad. It's not so clean. There are no bugs around. The pillows and the bed are comfy. There is free AC. The shower has mold. You get the wifi by talking to the office. There are hangers, TV, fridge, drawers, and a microwave. There is a bathroom. There's an ironer and coffee machine. I'll recommend this place if it was fully clean."

"Owner lives on site. Rooms are cleaned daily, new towels and washcloths daily. Bed is made daily, and NONE of your personal stuff is touched. Rite next to a Petro truck stop with an Iron Skillet restraunt, which is a big plus. Owner does not rent room to local or riff raff. Had tools left in the back of my truck and nothing was touched or stolen. The owner will not hesitate to call the police if anyone starts hanging around or causing trouble. I've stayed here working out of town for 3 weeks, Monday thru Friday and Not had one issue with anything. HIGHLY recommend!!! No it's not a 5 star resort, but if you want that then rent a 5 star resort. Been in 3 different rooms and NO BUGS OR BED BUGS!!!"

"The gentleman that checked me in was wonderful - very warm, cheerful, fast, efficient, even gave me a complimentary bottle of water. Room was spacious and clean. Water pressure was excellent, even had a massaging showerhead, great care was taken in placing towels, soaps, cups and coffee maker, clearly whoever tidies these rooms takes pride in their work. Grounds were clean, all appliances worked, overall a nice room. Didn't see one roach or bug, which is a rare delight for Red Roof. Easy parking right in front of my room. Cons: Very close to hwy - this makes it convenient to get just about anywhere, but there was some noise. I'm a heavy sleeper so it didn't bother me after I fell asleep but a lighter sleeper might have difficulty."

"The building has some age on it, so it shows some wear inside and out, but my room was clean and in good repair. A good value for the low rate. Micro fridge in the room. I-95 can make things a bit noisy, but that type noise does not bother my sleep. Front desk person was great. I really enjoyed their kindness."
