Easy walk to Mid Florida Credit Union Amphitheater. The room was good enough and mostly clean. It’s an old property but decent enough to stay and it was very affordable. I would stay there again.
The Rooms are Very Clean and Comfortable
I Will Choose This Red Roof Over Many

Look this ain’t the reds or nothing but if you need a solid place near gas stations, the wing house and the casino. This is your spot friendly staff decent room rooms has everything you need.
Everything was clean and tidy, check-in process was easy, no major complaints. Was it spectacular no. But it was well worth the money and I've stayed before, and will stay again....
Room was clean and comfortable but no amenities whatsoever. Nothing special but was only for one night to sleep for a cheer competition so we did sleep. It was worth it bc it was a cheap room.
Night staff was good, day staff was so so. Room was the most horrible room I've ever stayed in. Dirty everything, disgusting sheets, ridiculous pillows, and the bed was like a 30 year old worn out rv mattress. It smelled so musty, yet you have to pay another 50 dollar deposit at check in for not to smoke in the room. We put our own sheets on top of hotel sheets. Gross hotel with 0 regard to cleanliness.
If your bank account is low and your standards are lower, this is the property for you. The rooms are not particularly clean and the amenities virtually non-existent. The towels were NASTY. The sheets were thankfully clean, at least to the naked eye.
The only shout out I can give to this property is that the staff in the lobby was nice and helpful.
The ac kept shutting off, did not smell clean and sheets were not very clean.

We ended up leaving because the AC unit for rattling, way too loud to sleep. Also, the bathroom was FILTHY. There was public hair and dirt on the floor. The tub also looked dirty. That floor hadn’t been mopped in a while. The bed seemed clean but we left.

For the price of the room per night, I really cannot complain to much. You get what you pay for. My primary complaint is the condition of the mattress on the beds. One mattress was so worn out that the middle was collapsed like a 500 lb weight was on top of it. The other bed wasn't much better. If you require a comfortable bed, you might want to look elsewhere.
