The Spotlight on Red Roof Inn Kalamazoo West - Western Michigan U

Affordable Comfort Close to Kalamazoo’s Music Scene

Modern and no-fuss, Red Roof Inn Kalamazoo West - Western Michigan U is a budget-friendly option just off I-94 and under five miles from downtown Kalamazoo. With clean, simple rooms featuring free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs, this spot is ideal for concert-goers who want a reliable place to crash after the show. It’s also just a 15-minute drive from Western Michigan University and a short ride from Kalamazoo International Airport.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything—this hotel places you close to major venues and downtown nightlife while staying just far enough away for a quiet rest after the encore. With complimentary parking, including space for larger vehicles, and easy freeway access, getting to and from late-night events is a breeze. Plus, the 3:00 PM check-in gives you time to settle in before a big night out.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends road-tripping to a show
  • Solo travelers catching a favorite artist
  • Couples looking for a laid-back weekend
  • Fans needing a chill space post-concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who prioritize value

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel doesn’t offer on-site dining, you’ll find plenty of walkable and drivable eateries nearby for a late-night bite. Free coffee in the lobby is available to help you rally after a long night, and many local breakfast spots are just a short drive away for next-morning recovery.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself is more about rest than revelry, downtown Kalamazoo’s bars and lounges are just minutes away. Whether you want to keep the night going or toast the opening act, you'll find plenty of late-night options nearby.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the clean rooms, friendly staff, and easy access to local venues. Reviewers highlight the hotel’s good value for the price and note it’s a solid choice for a quick overnight or weekend stay tied to an event.

Areas for Improvement

It’s not a luxury stay, so don’t expect high-end amenities. Some guests mention the property is a bit dated in spots, and there’s no breakfast included. But if you're here for the music and just need a reliable, budget-friendly room, it more than does the job.

The Bottom Line

Red Roof Inn Kalamazoo West - Western Michigan U is a smart pick for concert-goers who want an affordable, no-hassle stay close to the action.

Very poor

Liked: The location is very good.
Disliked: The door to the room isn't weather sealed at all so light and air come through. The remote for the TV didn't work. The mattress was completely worn out. The stopper for the sink drain was broken. The tub has many large chips that are rusted. The heating/AC unit front grill and gard were completely broken off. When I returned SAT afternoon my key card didn't work, I went to the office and she told me I needed to pay for my second day (when I booked I paid the entire balance for 2 days) she said I had only paid for one day. I had to get the paperwork to prove to her I had paid fully and didn't owe money.
