Red Roof Inn Atlanta - Kennesaw State University

After 14 hours on the road, we just wanted to sleep. If I hadn't been so exhausted, I would have canceled and gone anywhere else. Room 110 was the most disgusting hotel room I've ever stayed in, even after some awful past rooms. The pool was closed, too. Almost nothing worked: the TV had dangling, disconnected wires, the alarm clock was dead, and the refrigerator didn't work, though its back got very hot. An extension plug had scorch marks, a fire hazard for electronics that didn't even work. The cheap laminate floor was buckling and coming apart, with lots of end joints poorly filled with caulk. There were pink stains on the bedding. The sink was cracked and wouldn't drain, the shower curtain had black dirt on it, and there was no tub stopper. The desk chair had what I can only call spooge marks. I've never felt a need to contact a hotel's corporate office before, but I will this time. Charging a pet deposit for a room that couldn't be made worse by any amount of urine or damage should be a crime. I'll update this if they respond. Stay anywhere else, or sleep under a bridge if you have to. Please don't let them put you in room 110. I'll NEVER stay at a Red Roof Inn again.

When we booked, we were quoted 140 for one night and told the room was premium. We asked for two smoking beds and had a small dog. They also said we'd get a gift, which we chose as a 20 donation to an animal foundation, though I seriously doubt that donation happens. At check-in, they added a 50 security deposit that hadn't been disclosed when we reserved. We were lied to from the start. Here's video of our premium room.

Check your bank account carefully if you pay by card here. The young Indian girl with long hair ran my card at 7:40 pm on the night I stayed, then it was charged again at 3 pm the next day, when I was long gone. I hadn't authorized more than one charge. When I called, she denied running it twice, but my bank confirmed both transactions. I'd go to the hotel next door instead.

The air conditioning worked really well, and the water pressure was good, though the water was barely warm. There was a lot of noise until around midnight, then it quieted down. The bed was just squeaky springs.
