Old, outdated and has junk laying around the property. The desk clerk is very unprofessional and does not work to resolve any problems. They make a copy of your drivers license and once you leave it is tossed in the garbage for anyone to find and not shredded. I would not recommend this place and would give it zero stars if I could.

I liked nothing. The room was old and musty, air was off and it was very dark. Walked out and went back to the office at which point the desk person offered me another room (previously there were no other rooms). When I pushed him for more info, he said it was the room of the man who was arguing about a refund when I got there because of bugs in his room and garbage outside his room and around the pool. The desk clerk wanted to give me that room. The room I was given had holes in the floor in front of the bathroom door and a counter outside of that door that were covered with carpet stretched across them. When I stepped into the first hole, I lost my balance, grabbed the counter and stepped into another hole. Like walking on a worn out trampoline. I did not even go into the bathroom because I was afraid of falling. I took pictures of the condition of room for reference with the safety and condition of the room. Not only was the room in poor condition, the desk person was rude and condescending - acting like I was crazy for complaining. I realized there was no reasoning with him, he actually said (in front of me and other customers) loudly but under his breath, “these white people always have complaints about everything”. Not a good experience in any sense of the word and certainly not a good image not only for this particular location but the hotel group as a whole.

Pool was out of service and dirty but everything else was great. Staff was very helpful. They do charge a $30 deposit in case of certain things but they'll return it if u follow the rules. I booked a room for 4 for me and my children for the night but since I slept in my car and let my children keep in the room, I got a refund so they do refund you so thats great!

Dirty, strange and rude staff with a criminal element mixed in. The pool is algae filled, nothing works like AC, we quickly just left and of course he refused repayment. There was a truck filled with trash, looked like a place for a squatter and it was the property was completely unkept. I was scared for myself and my family and want no one to ever visit.

Do not even bother booking this hotel. This place should be condemned and turned into rubble. If you book a room, show up and request a refund, 99% chance you will not get it. The ceilings are collapsing, the walls are crumbling, the beds are full of bugs, wings, massive yellow stains on sheets, pillows, etc. This place needs to be shut down by the state, and seriously torn down. Attempted communication with the \"office\" people will only disappoint you as well.

As I was asking the owner if we could look at the room for bugs he said the are 3 kinds of people that stay there.. Mexicans, Blacks and White Trash l let him know that we weren’t white trash.. then he added Jews. This guy was so belligerent and racist Now this was during Sandusky Bike Week. If I knew we could have found another motel I sure wouldn’t have stayed there.The owner would only let us look through the window for bedbugs or roaches.I’m happy to say there weren’t any. The room was clean but we were there Thursday through Sunday and the trash was never picked up.I won’t ever stay there again

This place was terrible! I’ll be contacting Econolodge customer service about it. The shower head was detached from the wall. The light/vent in the bathroom had a big gap between it and the ceiling. The AC unit had pieces broken outside. The curtains had holes in them. The paint was chipped and damaged. It was a dump. We only stayed because the sign in the lobby said there is a cancellation/early checkout fee of over $60 and we couldn’t afford that. We’ll never stay at this property again. We’ve never had a bad experience at any Econolodge we’ve ever stayed at until this one.

Apparently some of the rooms have been remodeled and have luxury vinyl flooring. My room had dingy carpet. Pictures of the breakfast area show a waffle maker. All they had was cereal, no waffle maker.

Overall, the hotel doesn't look like the pictures. Not very well kept up.

The room was nasty.. the lights didn’t work and when it the bathroom light was on it went out on my best friend while she was going to the bathroom. They charge you a $40 deposit after you pay and if you don’t pay the deposit you don’t get a refund or a room

We stayed during bike week ohio The room was dirty, hair on the toilet and in the bathtub. The in room safe was not even attached to the floor or the wall and it did not work. T v had one station, and when it came time to check there was not a staff member in sight. Almost half the people left early and checked out sometime in the middle of the night. The others that were staying, there were of questionable mind

For an older hotel with no “curb appeal” the room was very clean with no odd odors. The towels were fluffy white and there was plenty of hot water. The room had a microwave and mini fridge with updated TV. There was road noise (I was near front of motel) but I felt safe.

Entering the office it was old and unkept the attendant was hard to understand. He asked if any of us smoked and looked at my 12 year old and asked if she smoked which was appalling to me. When we get into the room it smelled musty like no one had bothered to clean it in a while, there is cigarette holes on both bed blankets, the faucet in the bathroom tub was leaking, the shower curtain looked like there was mold in it, there was no tissues in the container, the TV was unplugged and the cable for the channels not plugged in at we had to get the guy to come and help trouble shoot it pool was out of order which devastated my daughter. She begged to just sleep in the car that she would feel safer in there than the room. We didn't shower in the room because we were unsure if the shower leak would get worse or not. It was a really bad experience especially since it was said that it was under new management and updated. I really feel like I was conned. I will never go there again even if they gave me a room!

Blood on sheets. Asked for new sheets, got offered a sheet with more blood. Ended up having to use a fitted sheet as a blanket. Dead bugs and roaches everywhere, with evidence of bed bugs (nest dots and corpses). Hairballs on the towels and mysterious orange goop everywhere.
It was one of the cheapest options for ColossalCon, but definitely not worth for that headache.

Beds were in dire need of new mattress. Had to extend my stay by one day and someone stole my charging cords for my hearing aids and my phone and my multi cord wall plug in!!!! They called the house keeper and she denied taking anything the hearing aid charger was in a plastic bag with nothing else. Management was not much help!! Oh yeah the TV didnt work for the whole 4 days!! No radio no clocks. No tissue all 4 days or nights. I even took the empty box out and laid it on the sink, but that didnt work either. There also was no breakfast served as advertised. there was evidence that someone was going thru my bag as the container that held my pistol was ripped on 3 sides when it was not like that when I hid it in my bag!!! Never again will I ever stay there again!!!!

PLEASE DO NOT STAY HERE……. The pictures on the website looking nothing like what the property actually looks like. When I went into the room the mirror on the wall was sideways. There was stains on the sheets and pillows. The ceiling tile was falling. There had what looked like blood stained on the shower curtain. It looked like a kid took a permanent marker and drew on the bathroom door. There was holes and marks all over the walls and sink. It was discussing. The front desk manager was very rude and disrespectful and wouldn’t give me my money back. He said if I want to go stay in temp tower and pay $500 a night go ahead which I didn’t understand that but ok. There were 4 people in the room and only 2 towels and a bunch of hand towels. That “continental breakfast”they said they had consisted of coffee, milk and boxed cereal. This place needs to be quarantined and shut down.

Desk clerk threatened me and my family and used racial slurs resulting in my family feeling unsafe and disrespected and a call to the local police department. They list smoking rooms and charge different rates for it but the property itself is nonsmoking. They are not pet friendly as it advertises limiting the types of animals and charging a pet fee per day as opposed to a flat fee for the entire stay which also isn’t listed.

Absolutely do not stay here. This place shouldnt even be on expedia. When i got there and my room was booked to someone else, the owner told me that it was not his problem and i should not have booked through a third party app. When i showed him my receipt and asked another question, he started screaming and yelling profanities at me that it was \"not his f problem\". We had to drive 4 hours home. After being at cedar point for 12 hours that day. Now I can't even get a refund because they won't answer their phone. Shocking. I know this isn't Expedia fault about the refund, but i will do all i can to get my money back. That guy surely doesnt deserve it after how we were treated.

We followed all of their rules but still was charged $30.. 2 calls to property were unanswered so sent a message thru Expedia.. outside grounds were shabby

Not Recommended

Not in line with econologdge expectations, might have been an off name inn. No directions for check in when main door locked. Card keys were white and he took a sharpie, crossed out previous room # and wrote our current room # on it. Keys were dropped off in a plastic pumpkin outside of main door, which concerns me. Room was very outdated, bed and pillow not comfortable. Breakfast was the worst ever - green bananas, prepacked little debbie donut, milk in a jug just sitting on the counter not temp controlled. When going back out to my car after about 15 min arriving the police were there regarding a problem between the customer trying to check in and the clerk, not sure what occurred and who instigated but an unsettling occurrence with family. Definitely wont stay here againt and will paid more for a better quality place. Sad to have associated this with the econolodge name.

This is by far the worst place I have ever made a reservation. The property was unkept, falling apart, dirt, the staff was clearly under the influence of substances and criminal activity was openly occurring in the park lot. We contacted Expedia for assistance. They contacted the property manager and made an unsafe environment. The property locked the office door would not answer the phone or allow a checkout. We had to flee the property and were on our own to find new lodging. Expedia strung us along for days trying to get a refund and finallly stated there was nothing they could do.

Do not stay here. Everything in our room was dirty. The towels looked like someone wiped their shoes off on them. the bedding was dirty. Unfortunately, we checked in after 11pm because we were at cedar point all day so there weren't really options to stay somewhere else. I paid $180 for the night. Luckily, I had my own blankets and towels and stuff we brought with us.

Liar, Robs money by the name of security deposit.

The front-desk lobby keeper charged me a security deposit of $30 stating that its refundable and would returned upon verifying that there are no stolen towels and no stench of smokes. I checked out clear on the next morning of my stay and the security deposit return would hit back into my account within a couple of days. It's been 25 days and it never did. I called him up twice and he claims he returned it. I called up the bank and verified that no such transaction got posted.

My stay at Econolodge, Norwalk OH

First if the room looked like the one on the website, it may have been okay, the rooms are filthy as are the windows, the owner /manager? is the rudest person I have come across dropping the F bomb on me more than once when asked if maybe there was maybe an egg cushion to make the bed more comfortable I was told this to look at the F'ing sign this is Econo Lodge not the Hilton and with cigarette burns in the bedding thats for sure. The truth is I should get a full refund, you would not even put foot in the pool, its so filthy. The guy running this place is a nut case.

Find someplace else

Just needed a place to sleep for the night. Property is unkept, grass is knee high and an unexpected $30 deposit in case of room damage. I was still charged the $30, and no refund given. When I call, it just rings, nobody answers and no machine to leave a message. Wanted to turn my room keys over at 6:30 am, doors were locked going into front desk. Came back at 10:30, it was unlocked but nobody around. Rooms are from the 1970’s. Do not recommend!

Avoid this place at all costs. I spent the weekend with an old friend of mine up in the Sandusky area and we stayed at this hotel. The pictures look nice, but you have no idea how bad it is until you actually go there. Look at all the other reviews and take that into account. First of all, this is a motel with a very shady, ghetto feel to it. The area is decent but stepping onto the property makes you feel like you are renting a hotel for a few hours for a one-night stand. From the exterior, you could see where there were marks on the doors where the doors had been previously forced to gain entry. I'm not new to this and can pick up on this pretty easily based on my line of work. Upon opening the door you were hit with and God awful stench from cigarettes and mold. We rented a non-smoking room and this is how they smelled. There are cigarette burn holes in both of the sets of sheets on the beds. There was an old empty beer can left in the fridge.. there were no towels to shower or dry your hands with. There was mold growing in the bathtub. And by the way there are long-term residents that live there. We spoke to a couple of them. Dead roaches on the floor in the bathroom. The floors sagged and gave when you walked on them. The only thing this place was missing was a bunch of bed bugs, and I'm not so sure that we didn't encounter them during our trip. Do not stay here. Giant sign says no refunds too...

This property was under new management which was not disclosed. My Husband was the one on this trip and was scheduled to stay through the weekend and leave on Sunday but, instead he came back to his room to find all his food supplies for the days the attendants cleaned his room like he was leaving. The pool he said also looked like it had not been cleaned in awhile also no notice of that that is one of the reasons he picked that hotel he had stayed before two years ago.

Due to a late start for an event, tried to call to request a late check in. No one answered the phone. Drove there first and was allowed to check in early. Got to room to drop things off and it smelled faintly of smoke. The air conditioner unit was covered with animal hair, the floor was not clean and there was hair on bath counter and in shower. Although beds were made thought maybe cleaning wasn't done yet. Came back late and someone had gone in there but nothing was cleaned. The room next door was playing loud music til after midnight. Windows were not cleaned even in the office. One of the pillowcases had brown spots all over it on both sides. Was basically there 10 hrs so couldn't say what the area was like but wouldn't stay there again regardless.

Even though we had receipt and booked room 4-6 weeks in advance. Said they were sold out. I had to call hotels.com only after they called him did he give us a room. After cussing about it. But toilet wouldn't flush and they refused to fix it. Room not very clean. Only plus we had, was no bed bugs. We checked everything.
