#6 of 7 hotels in Nicholasville Road & Fayette Mall by Axel's take. Nicholasville Road & Fayette Mall is #3 of 6 places to stay in Lexington, Kentucky. The best hotels in Nicholasville Road & Fayette Mall, ranked · Where to stay in Lexington, Kentucky

Axel's take: 7.0/10

A practical budget stop, but room upkeep is uneven. A no-frills 2-star motel on Lexington’s south side, scored for what it is.

Red Roof Inn Lexington South is a no-frills 2-star motel that makes sense for a short, budget-minded stay near Fayette Mall, the University of Kentucky and local hospitals. Its strongest points are convenience, free parking and staff who earn plenty of praise. Recent Expedia guests often describe clean rooms and comfortable beds, while the hotel’s first-pet-stays-free policy adds genuine value.

The catch is consistency. Alongside those positive stays, recent Expedia and Booking.com reviews report dirty floors, stained bedding, room odors and maintenance problems, including weak air conditioning and slow drains. This is a place to inspect your room before unpacking, rather than expect a reliably polished stay. July 2026 guests also reported a broken elevator; confirm it works if stairs are a problem. We’d skip it for a special occasion or if dependable housekeeping is your top priority.

Best for: Budget-minded overnight stays; Travelers with a pet; University and hospital visitors with a car
Watch out for: Uneven housekeeping and room maintenance; Smoke odors despite the smoke-free policy; Elevator outages reported in July 2026
Location: Convenient south-side base near shopping and restaurants; driving is practical for campus and downtown.
Rooms: Basic rooms draw comfort praise, but air conditioning, mattresses and drains receive recurring complaints.
Cleanliness: Many guests report clean rooms, but recent complaints across platforms make consistency a concern.
Service: Friendly, helpful staff are a recurring strength; housekeeping follow-through is less dependable.
Amenities: Free Wi-Fi, parking and lobby coffee, plus paid laundry; no breakfast service.
Fees and surprises: Official policy: first pet free, second pet charged; cash deposit required when paying with cash, debit or prepaid cards.
