Red Roof Inn Pecos

Driving up I-10 to Carlsbad and needed a cost-effective, pet friendly place to stay after a long day on the road. As far as those two factors go, the Red Roof Inn in Pecos met them. We thought it was hilarious that the website says children aren’t allowed, but dogs are. Each room has a street sign above it with a different dog breed, so initially, we and our pup thought we were in heaven. However, the room itself, and the property outside were more like hell. Upon getting our gear in the room and further inspection, our initial ‘this place is too good to be true for a red roof inn!’ thoughts were proven right. Whether they were dog hairs, **********s, or mystery hairs, they were all over the bathroom shower, toilet, and floor. There were water/toothpaste stains on the mirror. Layers of dust on every surface including outlets and dispensers. Hand soap and shampoo dispensers were empty. It was clear the toilet and bathroom had not been cleaned in…maybe ever? I had to clean them myself just to feel semi-comfortable. I then did an inspection of the sheets and am pretty sure they weren’t cleaned and instead just ‘smoothed over’ by someone’s hand. The floor throughout the room definitely had not been cleaned, and had stains and debris all over it. There’s a fridge in the room and the top of it had 3 inches of dust. THEN there was the microwave - someone exploded some red-sauced food inside of it, and there was a layer of dried liquid on the microwave plate that no one bothered to look at or clean. Unacceptable. As far as the outside of the building, there was trash and broken glass all over the perimeter, and the smoking bench was tipped over and broken in half with cigarette butts and empty packs strewn about. Broken glass isn’t exactly cool or convenient, considering they tout being a dog friendly motel. I knew not to expect the Ritz, and I guess ‘you get what you pay for’ - but I’m giving an honest review of our experience. Just because they’re the red roof inn doesn’t mean they don’t have to provide basic cleanliness and housekeeping for their paying guests. I don’t understand how the Management and employees can walk around their workplace and seemingly not lift a finger to make it better. If you’re at all worried about cleanliness, spend a few dollars more and find a best western plus or holiday inn.

The staff members were friendly and efficient. I left my electric cord for my CPAP machine in the room. I contacted them and the manager mailed it to me. I really appreciated it. Thank you.

Check in was fast and efficient, staff friendly. Room very clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay there again.

We stayed one night as we traveled through texas. The room was clean and all linen and towels were clean. There was a few paint chips in the bathroom and the provided shampoo and soaps were difficult to dispense. But being that it was included, i didnt mind. Overall, I would stay here again.

Booked this room as we crossed States for a family trip. Room was clean, beds were comfy. Breakfast was basic. Cereal, waffles, yogurt and coffee. We arrived at 1am and departed at 8am.

The price was right for the accommodations, but I never saw my room because I was turned away at check in.

The hotel is quiet, conveniently located. rooms are very cute-each of them has a dog name plate. Stuffs are helpful. Cleanliness is acceptable. I like the floors are LVP and tile, no carpeting. Room has a good size fridge, no tub but a stand-up shower. The bed squeaks a bit. Surrounding area could use better maintenance. Plants are overgrown which means lots of bugs when walking your dog. Breakfast is free but the variety is very basic, pastries cereal, and beverage. Overall, great value for the price.

The smell in the room was horrible. The bathroom was falling apart. The staff members were rude. We rented the room due to my house not having an AC and they were fixing. Just because I was from Pecos they stated that they couldn’t rent a room to us. I had to argue with then until they let us stay.
