Red Roof Inn Columbus East - Reynoldsburg

Worst. Hotel. Ever! Horrid place to stay. I don't see how some of the staff who work here continue to have jobs, they are rude and have no regard for the safety of guests. A strange man that was begging for money around the hotel started following me around and hanging around outside my door. He would knock on my door at all hours, and according to the people in the next room he was trying to get housekeeping employees to let him into my room. I called the front desk and expressed my concerns. I asked them to keep an eye out for him and out of an abundance of caution I let them know that nobody else was allowed to have a key to my room under any circumstances. Next thing I know, the woman at the front desk gave him a key to my room while I was out. My boyfriend knocked looking for me and this random stranger answers the door!! My boyfriend ended up in a physical altercation with the stalker, and the cops were called. When I got back to my room later that night, my key didn't work and the guy at the desk refused to make me a new one. He said I was no longer allowed to stay at the hotel due to police involvement stemming from my room. I wasn't allowed in to even get my stuff. I was literally barred from the room I'd already paid for after midnight with a nine year old and one year old baby BECAUSE THEY LET A STRANGER INTO MY ROOM AND PUT ME IN SERIOUS DANGER!! If you care at all about your safety, DO NOT STAY HERE! It's unprofessional, has awful customer service, it's life threateningly dangerous, and way WAY overpriced!!! You can pay less to stay somewhere much nicer that's safe, and has employees that actually care for your safety.

Clean clean@!

The mattresses here are to die for. Best night's sleep in a long time. Come through here all the time to visit my daughter. It's always clean, cheap and the beds are the best.

My boyfriend and I got room 136 around 7 pm yesterday. My boyfriend found a roach crawling on his food after coming back from the bathroom. We went to the front desk to request a different room or a refund. The man at the front desk told us we would be given a discount on our room. We were given room 240 that night (right above the room with the roach in it) the next day we requested the discount from a different man at the front desk. He told us there was nothing he could do for us except give us a 25% discount on our next room. We were told the room would have to be tested for roaches first before we were compensated. We've stayed at the Red Roof Inn several times in the past few years. We will never go back. Try the Days Inn right across the street if you're looking for a peaceful bug free rest!

Its a little dated, but for the price you cant complain. The red roof inn on the west side of Columbus is much nicer. Very nice staff, good location, and the heater works well.
