Henderson's Hidden Gem: Red Roof PLUS+ Unveiled!
Alright, buckle up, buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the… ahem… "Henderson’s Hidden Gem: Red Roof PLUS+ Unveiled!" and let's be honest, I'm always a sucker for a good underdog story. Plus, the word "unveiled" just screams mystery and the possibility of unexpectedly decent hotel coffee, right? (Spoiler alert: sometimes right! More on that later.)
Accessibility - the Lay of the Land (and, let's be real, it matters!)
Okay, first things first. Being able to get into your hotel room is kinda important. Red Roof Plus+ seems to mostly deliver on this front:
- Wheelchair Accessible: Tick. Always a good sign.
- Facilities for Disabled Guests: More ticks. Gotta love that.
- Elevator: Crucial! I mean, lugging your suitcase (and yourself) up five flights of stairs after a day of adventuring? Hard Pass from me.
Now, I didn't personally test the accessibility features, but the info suggests they're on the right track. Always a good idea to call ahead and confirm if you have specific needs, just to be absolutely sure. Better safe than sweaty and stranded, right?
The Restaurant/Lounge Situation – Can you actually eat here?!
This is where things get a teensy bit…murkier. The listing suggests on-site options, but doesn't slam me with details. We're talking:
- Bar: Promising…maybe a slightly over-priced cocktail after a long flight?
- Coffee Shop/Coffee/Tea in restaurant: Okay, the caffeine fiend in me is breathing a sigh of relief.
- Poolside Bar: Score! If you've got a pool, you need a poolside bar. Rule of hospitality.
But the menus? The actual quality of the grub? Unanswered questions. I'd say proceed with cautious optimism, and maybe pack a granola bar, just in case. This is no Michelin-star situation, I suspect.
Internet - Because We Can't Live Without It
Let's face it, we're all addicted to the internet. Here's the lowdown:
- Free Wi-Fi in all rooms!: Yessssss! No more hunting for the lobby router like a digital scavenger.
- Wi-Fi in public areas: Nice to have.
- Internet, Internet [LAN]: Okay, a little old-school, but useful for ultra-security.
So, connectivity-wise, they seem to have you covered. You can Insta-story your travels, check your emails, and binge-watch your favorite shows in relative peace. Phew.
Things to Do & Ways to Relax – Spa? Gym? (Maybe?)
Okay, this section is a bit…sparse. Like, almost non-existent. Things to do are generally limited. So don't book expecting a full-blown resort. However, it does provide:
- Fitness center: A small victory for those trying to maintain some semblance of a healthy routine.
- Swimming pool [outdoor]: Always a plus, especially in a place like Henderson, Nevada.
- Spa/sauna: Nice addition.
Cleanliness and Safety – Covid Times, Baby!
This is where Red Roof Plus+ really shines. They are pushing the envelope of cleanliness, and I appreciate it.
- Anti-viral cleaning products: Sweet.
- Daily disinfection in common areas, rooms sanitized between stays, professional-grade sanitizing services: Okay, they take their cleanliness seriously.
- Cashless payment service: Convenient and safe.
- Individually-wrapped food options: Smart.
- Staff trained in safety protocol: Reassuring.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking – Hunger Games
As previously mentioned, the dining situation is unclear.
- Room service [24-hour]: A potential lifesaver for late-night munchies.
- Breakfast [buffet]: Could be good, could be…well, hotel-buffet-y.
- Snack bar: Again, a possibility for a quick bite.
- Restaurants: They do claim to have restaurants, but details are lacking.
Services and Conveniences – The Little Things Matter
This is where the hotel's personality shines through:
- Air conditioning in public area: essential in Henderson!!
- Concierge: Helpful for getting around.
- Daily housekeeping: Yay!
- Elevator: Thank God.
- Food delivery: Awesome for when you're tired of eating at the hotel.
- Free car parking: Saved some money.
- Laundry service & Dry cleaning : Useful.
- Pet friendly (in some): Bonus!
- Meeting facilities: Great for business!
For the Kids – Are the little ones allowed?
- Family/child friendly: Good to know. No explicit kid facilities, so don't expect a waterpark.
Rooms, in Detail! - The core of the experience!
Now for the BIG question. What's it actually like to stay there?
- Air conditioning: YES.
- Free Wi-Fi: YESSSSS.
- Coffee/tea maker: Double YES.
- Desk/Laptop workspace: Good for business travelers.
- Non-smoking: Excellent.
- Smoking area facepalm.
- Refrigerator: Very handy.

- Separate shower/bathtub: Luxury!

- Window that opens: A bit of fresh air is always appreciated.
Getting Around – Location, Location, Location
- Airport transfer: Super convenient.

Milwaukee's BEST Kept Secret? This Hotel Will SHOCK You!
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because this isn’t your sanitized, perfectly curated travel blog. This is me, about to dive headfirst into a weekend getaway in the glittering metropolis… wait for it… Henderson, Nevada. Specifically, Red Roof PLUS+. Don’t judge. Budget, baby, budget. And honestly? After the week I've had, all I need is a bed, a shower that’s not actively trying to drown me, and maybe, just maybe, a little bit of peace.
The Henderson Hellscape (and the Hope of Happiness): My Red Roof PLUS+ Adventure
Friday:
4:00 PM - Arrival: The Parking Lot of No Return (Almost). Okay, so I pulled into the parking lot expecting… well, something. Let's just say the pictures online were heavily enhanced. The building leans slightly, whispering promises of structural integrity issues. And is that… a discarded pair of women's underwear draped over a shrub? Sigh. This is going to be interesting. Check-in was a breeze, bless the weary soul behind the desk who looked like they’d seen things I couldn’t even imagine. My room key, thankfully, worked.
4:30 PM - Room Rumble: Expectations vs. Reality. The room. Ah, the room. Here's a hard truth: it smells faintly of stale cigarettes and desperation. But, hey, the bed is… vaguely clean? I'm going to try not to think too hard about what’s lurked beneath the comforter. Okay, cleanish. I'll work with it. The TV? A relic from the early 2000s, showing a blurry golf match. Maybe this is a sign to finally catch up on some… reading! (I hope.) Gotta keep my expectations low.
5:00 PM - The Quest for Snacks and Sanity. Time to venture out for provisions. My stomach is already plotting mutiny. Gotta find a grocery store. This city looks like a weird desert. I should have packed some snacks.
6:00 PM - Dinner Mishap (and a Revelation). Found a chain restaurant nearby. (Let's not name names, I don’t want to get sued.) The food? Forgettable. The service? Let's just say, there was a distinct lack of enthusiasm. By then some guy in the back had food poisoning so everyone was upset. But here's the thing: sitting there, watching the people in the parking lot and the family arguing, I found myself… oddly relaxed. It was a far cry from luxury vacations I usually never go on, but the whole thing was sort of… real?
7:30 PM - Room Retreat and the Glorious Absence of Sound. Back at the Red Roof, I discovered the best noise canceling headphones I could ever have. And I didn’t even know I had them! I lay in bed, and tried to think what I'd been missing out on this whole time.
9:00 PM - Bedtime… and Internal Debate. The silence is broken only by the occasional distant siren. Should I watch TV? Read? Attempt to tackle the mountain of work emails I swore I wouldn't touch? Probably not. Time to turn off the lights and drift off to sleep… Maybe.
Saturday: The Desert, the Daydream, and a Deep Dive
8:00 AM - Breakfast of Champions (or, More Realistically, Coffee and Regret). The complimentary coffee – as advertised – is horrendous. But I'm not letting it get me down. I've survived worse. I'm going to turn it into a delicious experience!
9:30 AM - Desert Adventure (Attempted). I put on some sunscreen and tried to venture out to the desert in the morning. This was an unmitigated disaster. It was one of the hottest days of the year and I don’t even like the desert, I got really sunburned and just sat in the shade for the rest of the day.
1:00 PM - Lunch and the Search for Human Interaction. I decided to take a stroll through a local shopping center. I had no idea where I was actually going when I got there, but the food court seemed to provide me with a sense of order. I ordered my meal and tried to make small talk with the people I thought I saw. I wasn’t very good at it.
2:30 PM - Pool Time and a Moment of Zen (Maybe). They have a pool! It actually looks kinda clean! I change my clothes, and go relax in the pool for a little bit. The sun felt amazing.
5:00 PM - Dinner and a Realization. After changing into some new clothes, I decided to go to dinner and try and meet some new people. I ended up bonding with a group of people at the bar. I think it’s the first time I’ve ever actually felt like I connected with anyone.
9:00 PM - Back to the Room and the Quiet. I had to rest for a bit. I have a long drive home.
Sunday: Farewell, Henderson (and a Promise to Myself)
- 9:00 AM - Breakfast. Farewell to Henderson. The last cup of coffee (less awful than the first, somehow)
- 10:00 AM - Departure. Bye, Henderson! It was… an experience. Not a perfect vacation, maybe. But for all its imperfections, there was a magic hidden in the mess.
Overall:
Henderson, Red Roof PLUS+, you surprised me. You were a reminder that sometimes, the most memorable experiences aren't about the fancy hotels or carefully curated itineraries – but about the real, the messy, the imperfect. And I'll be back. (Maybe. Probably.)

Henderson's Hidden Gem: Red Roof PLUS+ Unveiled! (Or, My Brain Dump on a Budget Stay)
Okay, Seriously, What IS Red Roof PLUS+ in Henderson, NV Like? Is it...good?
Alright, buckle up, buttercup. This isn't a gleaming resort. Let's get that straight. It's a Red Roof PLUS+. Which, let's be honest, conjures images of...well, let's just say character. I've stayed there twice. One time, it was a desperate, after-Midnight-Flight-Delayed-by-a-Hurricane-And-I-Have-Three-Kids-Who-Need-To-Pee kind of situation. The *other* time? It was a budget decision. Needed a place near the airport that wouldn’t bankrupt my bank account. Basically, it's a place you crash. Think 'functional, not fabulous'. It's clean-ish. The staff is trying their best. And, hey, the price… well, it's a price.
Is it actually 'PLUS+'? Like, what did they add? A free toaster?
That's the million-dollar question, isn't it? The 'PLUS+' part. Well, in reality? It's probably just a slightly better grade of everything. The beds are maybe a *tad* more comfortable than the regular Red Roof. The TV might be a flatscreen (shoutout to the 2000s!). They *claim* Wi-Fi that, generally, works? But the PLUS+ is definitely a marketing word...don't expect a miracle. I'd expect something a notch above the bare minimum, but don't go building your hopes on it. You're still at a Red Roof, remember?
What about the location? Is it truly a hidden gem? (Or just hidden?)
Hidden? Yes. Gem? Debatable! It is, by Vegas standards, a little…off the beaten path. It's not smack-dab in the middle of the Strip, which, as someone who's been to Vegas a few times, is usually a good thing. It’s close to the airport (hello, convenience!), and there are some shops and restaurants nearby. Don't expect the Eiffel Tower outside your window; you *will* see a parking lot and maybe a few other hotels. However, if you're there for a practical purpose, maybe a work trip or a quick layover, then it's quite convenient. If you are there to see the Vegas lights, you're better off paying extra to stay near the strip
Okay, let's talk about those rooms. What can I expect? Mold? Bedbugs? (Okay, maybe I'm a little paranoid...)
Alright, deep breaths. The rooms...are serviceable. The first time I stayed, I did a white-glove test (I know, I know, don’t judge me, I’m a germaphobe). It wasn’t spotless. But it wasn't a biohazard either! They're not luxurious. They're not designed to impress. They're designed to keep you from sleeping in your car. I've seen worse! The bed? It was a bed. You won't feel like you’re on a cloud, but you'll probably sleep. The bathroom? Functional. The shower? It works. The whole place just screams 'budget.' Don’t believe all the horror stories. (I'm saying this *as* someone who has a horror story brain!)
