So I'm trying to think of anyway I can get my room to smell better without hurting the rats. Flowers. Why hadn't I thought about that before. I just all natural flowers. Would that work? It'd be a pain to have to continue to rebuy them when they die but hey I am all for it if it'll make my room smell better and not hurt the rats.

My boyfriend buys me flowers all the time, and they do make my rooms smell nice. =P
My rats have never had an issue with flowers in my room. I'm sure flowers sound like a great idea!

Try a dish of activated charcoal.

A small dish of vinegar works wonders, too!

I use to have these: http://www.petsmart.com/small-pet/c...6-5007864/cat-36-catid-600004?_t=pfm=category and it didn't seem to do much (plus Jojo got a hold of it once and completely tore it to shreds.)

Cleaning the cages with vinegar works wonders for smell! Also, you can try to put a couple open boxes of baking soda around the room. Just make sure the ratties can't get to them.

Would ratties eat baking soda? What would happen?

The rats don't free roam in my room (I take them to an empty room) so I don't think it'd be an issue of them getting ahold of it x)

I don't think they'd eat the baking soda, but don't put the baking soda directly on their bedding. It's pretty dusty and not good for their respiratory to breathe in all the time directly like that. But just having it in a box where it won't get kicked up wouldn't harm them. Maybe you can put a couple open boxes on your window sill.
