“Very decent room for the price.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 12, 2013

I've heard horror stories from other hotels with a single room for a similar price. This hotel provides a good room for a small price. Here are the only problems: the bright blue quilts are synthetic, and you don't feel very warm sleeping at night; you can't control the heat in the room, only the air conditioning; wifi is not secure (don't do banking!); the fan in the bathroom is really loud, and there is no switch to turn it off while keeping the light on; you cannot have only the main lamp on - every light has to be on for the room to feel well lit. Otherwise, the room is very clean and meets most travelers' needs. The cleaning comes around twice per day, which I think is plenty. The first time I opened the door, I noticed how fresh and clean the room smelled.

The picture on the website shows a woman standing in a convenience store. This Red Rood Inn does not have anything close to a convenience store. Just a vending machine. Luckily, it's on Route 46, and there are tons of other places to buy the things you need. However beware of the Qin Dynasty Chinese restaurant connected with the Red Roof Inn - the women are snappy and bossy Chinese women. They need to be a little more polite. But the food is authentic and better than your local fast food Chinese place. (My neighbor is from China, and his family goes to this restaurant for authentic Chinese food.)

The Red Roof Inn was a great experience. My privacy was respected. Not much noise or disturbance outside my room.

Room Tip: Non-smoking rooms smell clean and fresh.

Dear Lillian B. ,


Thank you for your response about your recent stay. We encourage and welocme all comments about our establishement. You stated that we have a picture of a person in a convenience store. We do offer a vending room with various snacks and beverages here on property located next to our office.

All of our pictures for the Red Roof Inn Parsippany were done professionally and do not have guests, staff members, or the vending room in them. The picture which you must have seen was that of one posted by a guest; who are allowed to supply their very own pictures of our establishment on many of the review and booking sites.


Thank you again for your kind words and we look forward to seeing you in the near future at the Parsippany Red Roof Inn.

Sincerely

Daniel Gutierrez

“Typical Red roof, but watch the water pressure”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed December 20, 2012

This Red Roof is typical, clean, good beds, functional wifi, no micro or fridge in room (an upgraded room may have it). Good location. Good value. The only issue I had was that the water pressure in the shower was so hard it actually hurt my face. I am a 48 yo army vet and stay in probably 60-100 hotels a year, and I never had a shower hurt before (I was certain I was clean though!). Overall, great value for the area and many restaurants around. I'll be back.

Dear Ibarker,
Thank you so much for choosing the Red Roof Inn Parsippany and taking the time to tell us about your stay. As you stated our water pressure is quite strong and is being looked into. You also commented on not having a Microfridge in you room and with all our standard rooms that amenity is not provided. Although for a minimal fee we can upgrade you to one of our Deluxe rooms where it is provided or our Superior King room where we offer in room coffee and tea as well as the Microfridge.

Thank you again for your comments and we look forward to seeing you on your next visit to Parsippany.

Cordially,

Daniel Gutierrez

“Great place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 28, 2012 via mobile

Rooms are clean, beds are comfortable and service is great. Marsha at the front desk is very nice and accommodating. Location is good not far 1 hour from NYC. There are lots of restaurants to choose from. I recommend this place if your coming to Parsippany NJ!

“Extremely satisfied with our stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 9, 2012

Red Roof Inn really came thru for us recently as needing a place ASAP with the hurricance coming to NJ. We were forced to evacuate but our job was still on so as the hotel & customer were in same area, we booked our stay for 4 nights. They're pet-friendly with no fee. The room was on the 2nd floor (prefer 1st flr but emergency times called for making accomodations. We move furniture, stairs anywhere are a hassle!) Our room was neat, clean, microwave, fridge, coffee maker, plenty of towels, the staff was extremely accomodating & offered plenty of comforting words re: past experiences with storms. During the height of the storm, we lost power for only 5 hours - which was the 1st time in about 5 years! Our stay was made less stressful by Red Roof & I really appreciate all that was done not only for us but for the rest of the guests. While Hurricane Sandy caused plenty of damage in the area, there were still enough places with electricity so food & gas were available. The location, then, is great & the prices were a lot better than the other hotels along Rt 46. Highly recommend this hotel - hurricane or no hurricane!

“Pleasant stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 4, 2012

I was very pleasantly surprised by this local hotel. due to power outage, I had to find a local hotel that was pet friendly.
Red Roof Inn was budget friendly also. Plenty of eating places nearby and close to my home.

It was very clean and the staff were very helpful to us. Especially, Marsha at the front desk. With the emergency situation in the area she was working long hours always with a smile.
I would recommend highly.
Thank you,
Ellen
