I had a meeting in Flushing and needed a place to stay nearby. The Red Roof Inn was just a street aways so I chose it for it's location.||||Prior to arriving I called and asked about parking. There is no on-site parking, but there are several lots nearby. I checked out the lots on line, the reviews were awful so I took a taxi from the airport rather than rent a car.||||There is no lobby to speak of. The room was basic. The bed was comfortable, the AC worked just fine. There was a microwave, coffeemaker and refrigerator however there was just one plug with two outlets, so I had to do a bit of plugging and unplugging depending on which appliance I wanted to use. The furniture was worn. The desk had no lamp so I found it useless to do use. The bathroom was clean, neat and more modern than the rest of the room. It clearly had been remodeled at some point.||||The wifi worked flawlessly. I could not get the TV to work, but I did not try too hard to figure out why I had no reception. The front staff was cordial.||||I prepaid my room on line, so my total cost was about $94 which is not a bad rate for this part of the city.||||If you need a no-fills place to stay and can put up with no light on the desk and changing plugs, the Red Roof Inn is not...

Read moreStarting with the door that doesn't actually close...the room is "decent" for a business stay or so I thought...I felt like someone was in my room and I was correct. they walked in on me while I am completely naked as I type this so I assume they also came in on the first day with my confidential files out on the desk. the door sign was not placed outside for the room to be cleaned so I am not sure why they just walked the hell in...I called the desk and there was no answer, I went downstairs and there was no attendant, the security did not acknowledge me asking where the attendant was.

I am still a paying customer so there was no reason for...
