Red Roof Inn El Paso West

Fast internet makes up for a few short comings.

Location was great. After a long drive, having plentiful choices of food in the area is kind of a luxury. Plus there's a big grocery store near by to stock up on supplies and what not. Internet was fast. Was able to watch youtube and browse with very little lag or herky jerky video playback. Fast internet seem, though often advertised, is pretty rare in my many many hotel stays.

It was dimly lit which heightened the drabness of the whole place. I get that Red Roof Inn is a budget brand but I stayed in an updated motel 6 on the same trip and its a good reminder that cheap doesn't mean things cant have a bit of color and thoughtfulness. Mostly though the front desk clerk that checked me in was almost hilariously uninterested. I mean I get it, this isn't probably the most stimulating job on the planet and I'm not going to ask for hyper enthusiasm for $60 a night. I laughed it off but to those of you out there that are expecting four star service on a two star budget, prepare for disappointment.
