Red Carpet Inn Whippany NJ

If I could give it less than 1 star I would. First there was no one to check us in for a solid 5 minutes and when he finally came to the desk he looked mad at us for being there. The hallways smelled of cigarettes and cat pee. Then we went to the room to lay down after a day of hiking nearby. When we pulled back the sheets there were brownish-red stains. The carpets in the room had either white stains or areas where the fibers were burned away (which I found strange since we booked a non smoking room). There was a used q-tip on the floor by the bed. When I opened the freezer I found a dead roach. After being in the room for maybe 30 minutes my boyfriend got up to use the bathroom and spotted a bug in bed. Upon further inspection I realized it was a bed bug and we promptly packed up and went to the car to call Hopper (the booking agency we used). After a lot of back and forth between Hopper (where we were on hold for 30+ minutes) and the hotel itself they refused to refund us since we didn't come straight to them within 15 minutes of checking in. Do not stay here.

Me, my man, and our 2 month old son booked three nights here and they gave us room 126. Once we walked in the room 1. it smelled so bad. 2. Floor was dirty like they didnt sweat it. 3. The glass back sliding door to go outside was cracked. 4. There was blood on the curtain. As we get to our last night which is right now my man was talking to the next door neighbor and he mentioned that our room was know as the bed bug room. My man told me and I was laying on the bed with our son who was asleep and I noticed something on the side of the bed and I turned on my flash and it was a big ass bed bug. We got up out of there so fast it’s not even funny. And they only refunded us $40 when we paid $200. Long story short DO NOT STAY HERE. disgusting, dirty, all that. Zero stars.

We booked a room here thru a booking agency, we where not familiar with the area and are traveling with a small dog. The photos for this place are downright Absolutley Deceitful!! This place is downright disgusting, even our little dog was not happy with this place. We walked in and we walked out. And absolutely a DIVE!! WE lost $85, dollars (no cancellation). If you value yourself, this IS NOT the place you want to stay!! This place is a negative in stars!! Booked a room down the street with hotels.com at the Sonesta, soooooooo much nicer.

Please, please, please do not stay at this place. We were very, very enticed by the price tag. HUGE MISTAKE. This place should be condemned and torn now. Period. The area was horrific, the staff were horrific, the people in the rooms next to us were horrific, the rooms were horrific. DO NOT STAY HERE. We believe they blend in low income families (with 5, 6 kids) into these tiny, trashy rooms with people who travel and stay for a night or two. It is a horrible blend of people. We could hear the people next to us clear as day through a door connecting both rooms. The rooms are so hot and our "patio" sliding door was broke. The AC was awful. There was no cold water in the bathroom faucet. Don't even get us started on the TV. You have to play around with the buttons in the back for an hour before you even figure it out. I made a prediction when departing this dump, that it will be closed down, condemned and torn down within a year. I bet my life on it. AVOID THIS PLACE.

Good afternoon. I’ve stayed at many hotels and motels over a 30 plus career in the music industry. From 5 star to flea bag motels. These properties weren’t built the way all the reviews state. The roaches, bed bugs, damages have not just happened by the snap of someone’s finger. Now when the Ref Carpet was built the roaches and bed bugs and other creepy crawlers didn’t just decide, “ huh new home let’s move in”. No!!! Those pest were “Brought” here and multiplied. Once they do it’s extremely difficult to exterminate them. However there are solutions to all problems in any dwelling. Permanent ones. However getting approval for these method is hard to do. I’ve personally stayed in three separate rooms. One in the original Red Carpet Inn and two in the Scottish Inn and Suites building next door. I’ve have roaches for a very short time because I developed a natural non toxic solution to exterminate these pesky pets permanently. There are many natural remedies to permanently kills roaches and other pests that are effective. However those who are the extended stay are too busy complaining too anyone any everyone instead of finding them. Important: some extermination experts and their companies unfortunately aren’t permanent solution organizations. Reason is “they are business”. They’ll come week after week to spray a non permanent liquid and nothing will happen. They know this and they do this purposely. If they didn’t they wouldn’t make the big money. Is it the right answer? No. Exterminatiors who own businesses would make more and have business if they to use permanent solutions. The second reason these places have these pests are “people”. What you ask? Yes people. People eat, people throw out trash, some do not throw out left over food, properly wash dishes or properly clean their own spaces. Third. Find the holes, plug the holes, kill the pests and problem solved, second problem with these extended stay properties is again, people. People who believe the toilet or sink is a trash can and end result backed up toilets and sinks, so ladies and gentlemen there may small issues these motels however I’ve dealt with management and was respectful and polite and had my issues resolved in a timely manner. So far the management as gone above and beyond for me personally. Allowed to stayed while issues with vouchers and code blue has arisen. All staff have been accommodating and understanding and respectful. I had small issues I’ve gotten solve whether on my own or with staff assistance. Defending the staff is not a problem and no one has asked me or requested this review. There’s always a solution. Thank you to all the staff a the Red Carpet Inn as well the Scottish Inns and Suites building.
