I didn't bother to stay here. I arrived at the property and the grounds weren't well kept and there was an odor.

That made me decide to view the room before completing my booking. I viewed the room and it smelled and looked nasty. From the bed to the walls.

No microwave, table, chair or light's. One lamp. The room was so unsettling. I declined housekeeping services and was told my son and i had to check out, the best thing that happened there. False advertising because the pictures gotta be from a different hotel. Charging way to much to take a suitcase full of bed bugs and roaches. I will never look this direction again.

Filthy grounds outside. Something that looked like blood stains on the curtains. Baseboards caked with dirt. No dressers or closets. Showed me the smoking room. Only checking for smell. After checking in I noticed all of the flaws. Checked out fifteen minutes later out fifteen minutes late and they charged me for a day. I could go on forever!

Non smoking room and cigarette burn on counters and sheets had holes in them and felt like sheets were not clean. Best thing was hot shower. After paying by phone they required a 50 dollar deposit which I never had to do . They should have paid me to stay there oh and don’t let me forget that I could not sleep due to thinking my vehicle was going to get broken into, no parking to accommodate your stay.

The advertising and advance photos and information did not fit the actual facility and condition. It appears they had just recently changed management or were lacking in training of the hospitality industry standards. I assign some blame for this to the Expedia site and how it vets and monitors the sites that it lists. Do people actually ever go out to these places?

The lot was torn up . Most of the asphalt was missing. The ice machine was not functioning. There were cigarette holes in my comforter. The shade was falling off the rod. The ice bucket was dirty, the stopper for the sink was missing, only one soap was given. The bed was comfortable, the air conditioning worked well and the shower was good. I did not feel safe at this location because of the disrepair and lack of customers. The owner was polite.

In the battle of Internet vs Reality, Reality won out here. I rolled the dice and got craps. The room looks almost nothing like the photos. Missing are the dirty walls, chipped ceiling and a door that's seen better days, oh and not to mention the holes in the curtain and the dirty baseboards. On the plus side the bed wasn't horrible the toilet flushed and the water pressure was so-so. Best of all I didn't see bugs of any type in the room. So basically you see 2 stars under $100 a night and that's exactly what you get. The photos are not completely the truth here. Take it or leave it if your on a budget.

This is one of the worste hotels I've ever had the displeasure of staying in. I'll give the highlights: when a car full of men with automatic weapons started spraying the parking lot with bullets, the woman running the front desk at the time attempted to lock myself and another paying guest out of the entry room where we sought shelter. Her reasoning was "that's not my problem, you stay outside" to that I checked out and vowed of I ever saw her on the street id give her the same treatment and see how she felt about being in that situation.

WORST EXPERIENCE I'VE HAD.

The worst experience I've ever had, when i checked in the attendant was obviously in an altered state of mind, when i entered the first room #109 , the ceiling was partially falling off, there were stains when i pushed the bed covers back and what seemed like small moving bugs, there was multiple food spray stains on the only lamp and all over the walls particularly next tothe bed. The phone was a shell with no cord or plug cord. I returned to the front desk and asked the attendant for a different room because of the filthy state of room 109. I asked for a second room that was not in a horrible condition. The attendant took me to room 111 it was in a slightly better state but not by much. The door lock and handle were barely on it didn't close correctly so i had to sleep with the chair and dresser pushed against it so no one could just push the door open while I slept,. The room was also filthy, the mattress was molding so i had to bring a blanket and sleep on my own blanket because the shhets and mattress were disgusting. I also found a soda bottle in mini fridge which shows nobody really took anytime to clean after the previous clients. I WILL NEVER STAY AT ECONO LODGE IN DECATUR GEORGIA, the almost 92.00 i paid for this HORRIBLE SERVICE AND EXPERIENCE was not worth it.

Am I lying ?

The appliances are old and outdated. The sink countertop has permanent markings all over. The shower is old and needs to be replaced. The curtain road is not durable to properly fit in its spot, so they rig it to make it fit and it’s noticeable. There is NO MICROWAVE in the room, and the refrigerator does not stand properly. The room smells.

Some of the guest that stay there are EXTREMELY LOUD. They wonder and prostitution with lingering females or trans asking for money.

The ONLY thing that kept me their was bringing my own air freshener and towels. Thank goodness I listened to my gut instincts which I Lysol that room down. Rm# 214

Went to take my bag out of my car and was constantly watched by people outside.
Found a weed grinder and toys under our bed.
Carpet was filthy, not at all vacuumed.
Went to wash my hands and found they left dirty soap from previous customer.
Went to use a towel for my face and as I unfolded it found it was still dirty.
Reserved a 2 night stay and the same night I arrived, was looking for another hotel. Was not at all clean and I personally did not feel safe, barely slept keeping an eye on my car throughout the night.
