The place is old and run down, you could feel the holes in the floor. Public space floors were dirty (actually, room floor was not clean either). Inside drawers had crumbs and hair. The sheets seemed clean, as well as the toilet and sink, so that was good. The donuts looked nasty and the coffee machine didn't work.

That you had a rude guest across the hall from our room because we had little kids and they were playing around and the guy said he was going to kidnap my little grandson because he was being too loud so that pursuit into a argument people need to understand that there are little kids that COMM and they are not quiet all the time and it was not after quiet time and it was not super early in the morning that they were making noise and the baby is only a year old

This review I’m giving is the Gods honest truth. The place was distasteful and should be shut down and renovated. Everything was broken down, furniture was beyond filthy Listen when I tell you, the bathroom looks as if it hasn’t been cleaned and the entire room smelled as if someone mopped up urine. Lobby was clean and the one staff helped as much as possible but she even wanted to quit. Housekeepers were nowhere to found and it shows. The price for the room made no sense because the place looks like an inside dumpster…The manager was rude because he was out somewhere, doing whatever non work related and had attitude because he’s unable to fulfill his job duties and his title. I hope someone report them to the state for an inspection. ASAP…DO NOT GO THERE!!

The hotel itself was fine, but the amenities were lacking. Online it says they have a continental breakfast (the reason I booked there), but it's just coffee and donuts that are free, along with vending machines. They also only provided a big bottle of shampoo in the shower, one bar of soap for both your hand and body wash, and no conditioner.

We booked a 2 night stay and ended up eating the costs for the second night and booked a room at the Holiday Inn next door.

The hallway reeked of cigarette smoke as we lugged our bags up the stairs because there was no elevator. When we got to our room, the floor was obviously not cleaned, with dirt piling up in the corners. We picked up the TV remote and it was covered in some kind of grease. In the bathroom, the shower was yellowing and peeling, there were giant black smudges in the middle of the mirror, the fan vent was covered in lint as well as the vent on the ancient hair dryer, and the TP holder was almost completely covered in rust. They didn’t even bother to clean out the ROTTING BANANAS in the fridge. The tray on top of it looked like it had not been wiped down since Bush’s last term. The smoke detector wasn’t much use as it sat disconnected in the dresser, along with the phone and just its cord. We weren’t even 100% sure the door latched, and the cracked peep hole was no use.

We didn’t expect that an EconoLodge would be anything special, but cleanliness and basic amenities is something that any management should invest in. DO NOT TRUST THE PHOTOS PROVIDED BY THIS PROPERTY. They absolutely do NOT reflect what it actually looks like.

And if EconoLodge management is reading this, don’t even bother to type out one of those “we’re sorry you had a poor experience” responses unless you are willing to offer us AT LEAST a partial refund.

Room seemed somewhat clean but floors were sticky. There was an odd smell in the room and I didn’t ask for a new room since I was already running late to an event I was attending if I wasn’t running late I’ll definitely would’ve asked for a new room. Staff were very respectful which I liked. Breakfast was only coffee and donuts so don’t expect much. The carpet in the room was really questionable so much stains and honestly they should replace the carpets so it can look presentable or remove them all. They have a free shuttle service but make sure to let them know in advance when you’re going to need it so you won’t have to worry too much about it. Now do I recommend this hotel? Absolutely not, but for the price I paid I shouldn’t have expected much… save yourself the trouble and book elsewhere.

We appreciated the comfortable bed and pillows, as well as the good shower, the room was not enjoyable because of the poor maintenance. There were no pictures on any wall and no mirror except over the sink, which is in the hallway, due to the small size of the bathroom. The room (walls, ceiling) was patched but not sanded or painted, large chips in the frame of the mirror, among others. There was only 1 bar of soap and no liquid soap in the shower, so we had to retrieve it from the sink to take a shower. No box of tissue. Staff wasn't rude, but said almost nothing at registration or check-out. Not welcoming. We won't be back.

My room I booked two double beds with four people. I asked for more bath towels because there was only three & 2 wash cloths when arrived. I asked for a couple more towel shortly after check-in, but Desk clerk said none available because was hotel was drying the towels yet. I said I'd get later. Hence later afterwards the next person said the three towels were standard for my room. I said we have 4 people need 4 wash cloths and atleast one more bath towels! After arguing with him he couldn't get the towel and wash cloths right away, but finally delivered them later. I moved the TV desk alittle and Stationary chair and found debris under them. Free breakfast was donuts and coffee only. Very low budget and they rent some rooms to low income people on a weekly basis? Never staying there again! Older Indian staff man very rude or didn't understand 🤔what I was telling him

If you're expecting a really nice place this isn't it.
If on the other hand you're looking for a clean, safe, and cheap place to sleep this is it.
I booked a room for just under $60 per night (including taxes) so I had low expectations to start with. I've paid more and gotten less before.
The rooms are clean, the towels were freshly washed, the staff was alright (my husband had no problems).
There are signs of wear in the rooms, but nothing that impacts usability or safety. Small defects like fresh paint not matching old paint, laminate peeling on a table edge, coating peeling on side of fridge.
Infact I can only think of two/three complaints - the hallways small like marijuana and the breakfast/coffee bar is disappointing. The coffee was terrible, tasted like old coffee that had burned was never removed from the pot, and the only breakfast option was donuts.

This was the worst hotel ever. While staying in the king suite, whenever anybody walks in the hallway the door would slightly open and shut and make it sound like someone hit your door. Staff moved me into a run down double room that it was so run down and broken.Downgraded my room and would not refund my money, and the lower level looks like Charlie' Kelly's apartment buildings hall from Always Sunny in Philadelphia. The window in the room was shattered, the hall smelled like weed, cumin, and cat urine. The horrific run down room had no toilet paper, ONE TOWEL AND ONE WASHRAG. The beds had one pillow EACH. The door was off track. the lock didn't latch. There was no phone to call the front desk, and the \"Continental Breakfast\" was rehydrated coffee crystals and hard day old doughnuts. Couldn't even go across the street to speedway to get fresh ones. There are people living in the parking lot, expect to hear the sound of an ambulance or two in the middle of the night. I have videos of both the rooms, the hall and the \"Free breakfast\". If you like the smell of cumin, marijuana and hard crunchy pastries, please book a stay.

While the individual components of the review only merited a mediocre score, overall, I give the Econo Lodge a 5. Why? Because for around $50, it gave me a warm, dry private place to stay on a long, long layover. I was able to stretch out and sleep on a comfortable bed after a long day of traveling instead of sleeping on the floor of the airport or trying to snooze on an uncomfortable airport chair with no way to get comfortable. For$50, I got exactly what I needed. These people who expect a five star hotel experience for fifty bucks drive me nuts. Spend $300 a night if you have to be pampered. Otherwise get real.
