STEPHEN
Older buildings with lots of wear and tear. The internet wasn’t working the night I stayed. The price though was significantly lower than other places in the area
Cynthia
They did not receive our reservation before they gave it away. The room was very poor quality: old bed, furniture, smelled poorly. The staff person was not trained and was doing her best given the situation.
Timothy
Loved the stay
Molly
You get what you pay for
The wifi did not work the entire time. Dated and in poor condition. No badge entry on exterior doors so anyone can walk in. Entryway had a pervasive odor. Stayed two nights and did not have hot water one morning. No visible bed bugs and the sheets seemed clean.
Robert
Avoid this place like the plague. It is awful and could benefit from the services of a wrecking ball. Despite the ads on Expedia there was no wifi (they were “working on it”) and no hot water (they were trying to find a part but the stores were closed!). I call BA on both of those. No offers of reduced rates or refund, nor an attempt to offer a room at another property. The breakfast was some old looking bread and English muffins with peanut butter or jam. That was it.
The toilet hasn’t seen a cleaning brush in years. There were curly hairs in the bathtub. Kinda glad that there wasn’t any hot water…
Save your money. But a blanket and sleep in your car.

Dated but sufficient.
Exterior of hotel was in very poor condition. No security on exterior doors with locks removed or taped over. Interior appeared very clean but dated. Staff was very friendly and welcoming!
Yoko
The staff was friendly when we checked in. The toilet tank flush buttons were not working properly. The bath tub drain was clogged and water was sitting in the tub after a shower for long time. I pointed out the issue at our checkout to the front desk staff.
Kathleen
Dirty, unsafe doors open from outside in with no security codes or anything. Water issues extreme laundry hot or extremely cold.
David
Property is a bit dated but suited my purpose just fine . For an overnight stay this worked perfectly
Timothy
This hotel is fine for a quick overnight for the budget minded traveler. Overall the property seemed quite run-down particularly the outside. The room seemed clean and the beds were comfortable. The breakfast was very minimal with very few items. The staff were friendly and helpful.
Oleksandr
Nothing outstanding.
Tony
Our check in was fine. The accommodations were not. Our room was at the end of the hall. There were cigarette butts and a plastic knife in the hall outside. The room next to us had the lockset pried off. We had one, but the door had been attempted prior with the pry marks to show. Our non smoking room had ash and cob webs on the furniture and floor. The ice Machine was not working and propped against the wall at the entry. Christine moved us to a different room that smelled better, but pry marks and a neighbor door that had its lock set pried off were the same as the one we left. We did not feel safe. The carpet was worn and needed cleaning. We went out to eat and backed the car up against the bushes on return to help protect what was still in the vehicle. While our car had not been tampered with in the morning, the car parked across from us had two tires slashed and a window smashed. The accommodations resembled a flop house. With the deficits of this location and the ick factor, I would remove it from your offerings. The back building is the Econlodge and I connects to a nicely appointed Quality inn.
Carrie
Tv wouldn’t work, someone tried my door at two am. It was dirty and dingy

Amanda
I booked this lodge for a 2 night stay. I didn’t even stay on site for more than 3 minutes. This place is FILTHY. From the check in area, to the foyer of the area of the lodge you’re staying in, to the room itself. The bathroom had hair all over it. Several again on both sets of bed sheets. Gritty carpet. I felt EXTREMELY unsafe. I looked in the hotel room and cancelled my reservation and booked down the street.
Sara
Stay elsewhere!
There was a Hole the wall & a large chunk of paint pealing off the. The roof was leaking in the hallway. A Continental breakfast is not dried out bread or english muffins for you to toast or dry cereal in my opinion.
Jacqueline
Didn’t even make it into our room multiple hallways were pitch black with no lights on pulled up the building completely dark front desk lady was very nice hotel shares lobby with other hotel?? multiple doors had their handles ripped off or just didn’t have any at all door key didn’t work just left key cards and went and booked room across the street at another location would not recommend

The doors were broken didn’t shut properly, the ceiling was falling in the room . No one at the front desk to check in had to call her twice . Hookers in the hallway!
Cole
Grossest place I have seen! Bugs, dirty, tv and outlets didn’t work
Brenda
Nice hotel
It’s an older building but it was clean. Hallway and outside area was well lit. Desk clerk was efficient and helpful. The free breakfast was good and gave us a good start to the day as we continued with our travels. Breakfast area was well stocked and clean.
Carrie

Not what we expected
This property was very run down and outdated. Nothing like the pictures. It had a 8.2 rating but was definitely a 3.0.
Karen
Convenient to highway.
Michelle
The room was clean, it had a fridge but no microwave or phone. Key card didnt work everytime and did not work on the outside door. I had pets with me, so was easy to get to the room.the breakfast was cereal and toast.
Patrick
Great
Bruce
The outside of the building had major damage. The hallway lights were just light bulbs without covers. There wasn't any towels or wash clothes in the bathroom. I asked multiple people multiple times for them and was ignored. There were stains on the carpet. The a/c was cool, but not cold. There was dog hair and sand on the other bed that i didn't notice until the next day. The outside doors didn't have locks on them and the front door was hard to open. Two employees were arguing outside at time off arrival. The location was good. That's the only positive about the stay.
George
the Econolodge is the back half of the property - joined to the Quality Inn in the front. The back half is uncared for and there are residents living in it long-term. We refused the room and were offered a room in the much better Quality Inn for the same price. They need to either improve the Econolodge or close it - it should not be a branded motel! Choice system should drop it!

Yay and Nay
So our first stay last weekend was wonderful. The from staff were very welcoming and friendly. The room was good for a place to sleep for one night. The second time we stayed was this recent weekend and the room was not in the best condition. The sheets had stains on them, there were no comforters on the beds, the bathroom wasn’t fully stocked and some other issues. Called down to the front desk and they offered a new room which I checked out and one of the beds had ash and hair and stones? on it so went back down and unfortunately they didn’t have anymore rooms available. They offered sincere apologies and sent a refund. It sounded like they were having some issues with the housekeeping staff, which I do feel for the front desk. It can be hard to keep good staff. Overall, Candice was a gem and very welcoming and sweet.
Julie

Get what you pay for
Econo shares lobby with another hotel, confusing to check in. Stand up fan in the lobby. Bathroom toilet seat was loose and came off, remote was broken, tv wouldn’t come on. Bed and pillows not comfortable. Breakfast was no where near continental. The plus side was that there were no visible bugs!
Heidi
The rooms were unclean. I don't think they were cleaned for us from the last guest that stayed there. The bathrooms definitely weren't. I have never been to a hotel in that condition.
Runa
The sheets and towels were clean and the air conditioning worked. The attached restaurant was good. The staff were nice.
Otherwise the floor was sticky, limited security-exterior doors did not lock, some outlets did not work, fridge did not cool, window screen torn out and broken glass in the parking lot. We did not stick around for breakfast. When we checked in we seriously considered leaving but were exhausted after a long day of driving. Would not recommend for families!

A favorite stop
This is a frequent stop for us. We like the Econo Lodge very much. Any issues we have had are quickly resolved. We like the staff and we loved the attached restaurant. it is amazing
We don't need a fancy place and this fits the bill

Brad
It felt dirty with a total disregard for maintenance. Everything is rundown. The other guests were friendly enough, but we felt like we were staying in a crack house. We were worried about our new vehicle spending the night in the parking lot. It seems to be a good option for budget travelers. I am sure the couple who shared the room down the hall, with their six kids, thought it was perfect for them. The breakfast items consisted of English Muffins, bread for toast, Chereos, Chereos with colored marshmallows, butter, jam, and peanut butter.
DEB
There was a brief heavy rainstorm and the parking lot was so flooded we could not get out to our car. A bare-footed employee, coming in from outside, warned us about the water.
Gail
Not a good stay
Room was smelly and floors were sticky. Towels were practically non-existent because they were so small and thin.
Todd
The rating is not close to what this place really is. The housekeeping staff kept the bathroom surfaces clean. The carpet was stained. The tile coming off the wall in the bathroom. The toilet wouldn’t flush. The tub drain was taken out of the tub and sitting on the side of it. It was ok at best. The AC did not work. We got in after midnight, so couldn’t tell till way into the night. Ugh. Skip it. Pay $10 more and go across the road.

Econo Lodge should be shut down

The curtains were ripped
Lots of holes on the walls where some 20 years probably had a picture
Breakfast was the most pathetic I ever seen

It looks nothing like the pictures. The rooms smelled terrible. When you turn on the water in the bathroom sink it throws water all over the counter. Stains on the walls and ceiling.

Seedy looking characters hanging around the lobby. Didn’t feel comfortable being there. There was a bottle of hard liquor sitting on the desk that you could see from the lobby.

Stay somewhere else
Stayed for one night with dog. Door lock didn’t function well, had difficulty getting into the room. Check in staff were very friendly (late at night), day staff (Bruce) was rude and chastised me your taking my dog into outdoor courtyard, told me my dog wasn’t allowed in courtyard but there were no signs stipulating this. He then proceeded to accuse me of not paying the pet fee, etc. Towels were not clean and hadn’t been washed, had mascara on one and some red food looking substance on another. Location is shady, Overall experience was undesirable
Janet
The hotel from the outside was a little sketchy but it got worse when we went to our room open the door and it was trashed. Food beverage containers towels garbage bags everything all over the room horrible experience
Jenifer
There was a red (possibly blood) mark on the sheets of one bed, no cord connecting the room phone to anything, loose screw/doorknob from outside, front desk called my cell phone 2.5 hours before checkout 'on accident'
Overall extremely disappointed

I had a pleasant stay at Econo Lodge! The staff was friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome. The cleaning was top-notch; my room was always tidy. The restaurant served delicious meals, adding to the overall positive experience. I highly recommend it for a comfortable and enjoyable stay!
Pamela
Good for the price.
It was good for the price. Very old motel room had been updated a bit ago. Clean but terrible lighting in evening. Nice and quiet. Pretty comfortable bed. Great service as I was cold and staff immediately brought me a nice comfy warm quilt. Very sparse breakfast but we didn’t care.
Harlan
There was a nice restaurant there but the continental breakfast was poor. Plumbing needs work and the room heater was noisy and couldn’t be adjusted.
Cory
Not a 7 as rated by other people who have stayed.
First off we noticed that there was no microwave in the room as stated in the list of amenities on their Expedia page. When i questioned about as to why, they stated no microwave is provided. I showed the front desk women the list of amenities listed on their expedia page, and was just simply told they will inform management. She acknowledged i can bring my food up to the front counter, and they will heat it up for me. For one, thats unsanitary as i dont want other people touching my food. Second, i am not going to walk from one end of the hotel, to the other with hot containers for myself and my 2 kids.
The second issue was the first room i was in. Didnt notice it right away as we got in late and went to bed shortly after arriving. I woke up to the room being very hot, when the heater was only set to 66. The floor was freezing cold in front of the heater, and i then noticed the heater was coming off the wall. Light could be seen from outside. The cold was tricking the heater into thinking the room was still cold, when it was hot. Got moved to a second room, which turned out to be ok at best. The bottom tile trim in the bathroom, behind the toilet was caved in.
\"Continental breakfast\" is a joke. Cereal, bread and english muffins...thats it. I have stayed at other Econo Lodges that offered more such as a waffle maker, eggs and sausage. Not even the orange juice machine worked. Was just water.
Will never stay here again

There was indication that the property was renovated, but some rooms were not. The continental breakfast was not very good at all there was even mould on some of the food
Thomas
Everything was just ok. Very dated.
Dena
The room had only been partially cleaned. The bath tub was filthy with a ring around it; there was toothpaste on the side of the sink base. Disgusting!!!
Sara
The room smelled clean but there were spider webs, spiders, and roach like bugs in the corners, bathroom, and on the beds. Two out of four lamps/outlets did not work. The fridge smelled of mold. The property was run down and people were cooking/living in the parking lot. Awful, flat pillows.

Stay elsewhere…no internet and poor service
Check in guy was terrible. After being told of a 13 hour drive at 8pm all he’d offer was cancellation of my reservation due to internet not working. He didn’t see it as a big deal. Also the ac was set to 60…outside temps were mid fifties…cold….set the heater to 68 and still took 30 minutes to warm up. The room was clean and adequate.

not worth the money
not such a great stay. they had horrible-looking water running out of the side of the building covering the parking lot. the pool was not working, the wifi was not working. only 1 washer and 1 dryer worked. it was old and run down badly. the cost was way too high for the place!

Not So Good
Less than what I had expected. Key cards were a big problem trying to get into room as well as trying to get into the building from outside. Building seemed to be in ill repair & lacking in maintenance.
Patricia
This place didn't look wonderful but we were pleasantly surprised. The room was clean and the beds were very comfortable. The shower was great also. I appreciate the refrigerator in the room. Breakfast was cereal, toast, English muffins and 2 apples. That was great for us, breakfast is always a bonus. I would atay again.

Not worth it
It wasn’t obvious where the lobby was. We drove around to the back and they were pumping their gray water from laundry into the parking lot. Very run down. Carpet was stinky and full of stains in the hallway. We tried to get a different hotel but it was over $200, so we went back to Econo Lodge. Never again.
Edward
Go somewhere else.
Bad place to stay. Breakfast was cereal & bread. The place reeked of smoke, found bugs (thank heaven not bed bugs) in the room, the bath tub would not hold water, sink was cracked, cobwebs in the window, screen was falling off, there was no
WI-FI, housekeeping around the facility was terrible. OK in the room. Walls are thin. People who have given this facility 10/10 must have stayed in a different place.

Quiet but a very old and tired property. Bath towels really need help.

Lightning in parking lot very dark. Bathroom light was the worst I have ever seen, could barely see in room. Main hotel door looked broke and no security lock. Breakfast bar was a joke, bread to toast and cereal only. Would never stay here again.
Margaret
It was middle of the road and what should be expected for the price...

Ok for the price
Holly
The bathroom light was a bit wanky to turn on. The door to the room was also wanky and would not recognize the card all the time.

Kathleen
In need of cleaning.
Quite dusty, The bathmat was not in very good condition. The toilet was not real clean. Could’ve used a good general cleaning. Beds were comfortable.
Carmen
When we opened our room door, the room had NOT been cleaned. Beds used. Food all around. Garbage all around it was like we walked in on someone elses room. Made us nervous that someone was still in there. Alone with my 10 yr old grandaughter. Long walk back to registration. Got a new room. Very dirty and smelly. Bed was comfy though.
