Red Roof Inn
James Trueman, a builder in the Columbus area, started Red Roof. Red Roof's first inn opened in Columbus, Ohio. It was 1973 and room rates were just $8.50 a night.
Jim believed, like many of our guests, in simplicity and economy without giving up quality. He focused on the meaning of value.
