Great location overlooking Jackson. Clean rooms, lots of channels on the tv and a pretty solid Continental breakfast made for a great stay. Really enjoyed the town and will definitely be back and staying at this location again.

We decided to pull over at this Red Roof Inn after experiencing some car troubles. It was late at night and we were worried about finding somewhere to go with our dog. Luckily, Red Roof Inn is pet friendly! The woman at the front desk was so warm & friendly, room was clean- we were very content and happy :-)

I worked in the hotel business for many years and that experience makes me both critical and understanding of the experience. Nice rooms with nice amenities for a no-frills hotel. There is an obvious effort from ownership to provide a clean, pleasant room. Staff was hometown friendly! Will return now that I see how easy the access is to 32 and 35.

Really kind staff. The rooms are very clean. Service in the rooms are easy and fast. Nice shower, and they serve breakfast every mourning at 5am. Great view on sunny days, especially sun up and sun down. They are also pet friendly. Will definitely be coming back in the future.

I was impressed with how clean and well kept this hotel was compared to others I’ve stayed at with the same price point. Hotel room was newly remodeled. The staff was very friendly and I could tell being a non smoker that it hasn’t been smoked in. There was not any unpleasant odors. They also had a new camera system which watches the parking lot deterring theft.

Recently stayed here this past week and overall happy with the experience. The staff were all friendly, and the rooms were pretty good for the price and decently updated. The beds were a little on the stiffer stiffer side as other reviews have stated, but as someone who stays in hotels often due to work, find stiffer beds are the norm. Hotel was nice enough we stayed again two days later when back in the area, and there truck parking was continently located right off the highway. Hotel options aren’t the most plentiful in the area, and the quality inn in Gallipolis was not nearly as nice as this hotel. Haven’t stayed at the quality inn in Jackson, but this hotel was nicer than 99% of the quality inns I’ve stayed at over the years. Will definitely stay again if needing a room in the area.

The staff was very friendly. Our room was very clean and fresh (odor-free) with a nice shower and great mattress. The hotel location is a couple miles from restaurants, but they do serve a modest breakfast in the morning.
