⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great Place to Stay! I had a really nice stay at the Red Carpet Inn! The room was super clean and comfy, and everything worked perfectly. The staff were friendly and very helpful — they made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. I lived there more than 3 weeks and it was perfect and peaceful. The location was very convenient too, close to restaurants, shops, and public transport. It was quiet and felt safe, which I really appreciated. Overall, a great place for a short or long stay — affordable, clean, and comfortable. I’d definitely come back again!

The heat was subpar, there was jewelry left on floor, trash in the drawers, bathroom door busted, just really run down and staff seemed not to care about personal property as they came in our room and dumped my dentures in the sink chipping them! Again they didn't seem to care! I highly suggest NOT booking this place for your loved ones naval graduation or for any other reson either!

The room looked to be ok, until I tried to turn on the heat. It never came on, and it was 35 degrees that night. I turned on the lights in the restroom, and a crowd of roaches greeted me. This facility refused to accommodate me because I ordered from a 3rd party.

Wasn’t as good as I expected. The heat kept going down during the night and got cold. Had to get up in the middle of the night and adjust. Went to get coffee at 6:00am and they did not have any. There was no continental breakfast. Won’t go back even if I have to pay more somewhere else
