The room was clean and spacious; refrigerator and microwave were provided. I felt the price was a little high, however, I am not comparing prices to other hotels in Lansing, just prices at Red Roof Inns in other cities. Negatives: The hotel is not near anything, i.e. restaurants, supermarkets, etc. If you don't have a car, you are stuck with the candy in the vending machine. Check-out is at 11 a.m. and the front desk called my room at 11:03. Most hotels give you a little grace period.

Front desk man was rude upon check in and in the morning on Saturday. The toilet ran non-stop and I asked for no disturbance due to sickness and the house cleaner came knocking anyway

This property is worn and filthy! Our room was filthy. Dirt all over the floor, dirt and dust clumps on the bed and the air conditioner and door handle were both broken! Informed the front desk and were switched to another room. We were told it may be better because it had a different housekeeper. The second one smelled of URINE, filthy, scratched laminate flooring, filthy windows, who knows what on the outside of the toilet bowel, smeared 'stuff' on the walls, no shower curtain, no remote, one coffee cup, large gap at the bottom of the door, and the tub drain was so plugged, water filled up the bottom of the tub during a short shower... We'd traveled a great distance to bring our son to college, had our dog, and where else could we go last minute with a dog?!? Planning this trip took a while to find a place that accepted 'regular' pets. We stayed... wore shoes (not daring to go barefoot).... the sheets were scratchy & made me itch all night. The purpose of the trip was to help our son move in and celebrate him and this new chapter in his life. All of the inconveniences are unacceptable. Called Red Roof Inn's headquarters and received an apology e-mail, including an invitation to try their place again...? A REFUND is in order. Travelocity, why are places like this allowed to be on your site?!?
