My room had dust on the hangers, and there was cockroaches outside... The last day there was one in my room in my sink!! There were unrepaired holes in the walls

I had to wait 25 minutes for someone to come to the reception to give me the room, the reception was alone the whole time, they gave me the room, when I got there, the room was dirty, it smelled bad, the floor was dirty, the sheets, the towels I took one and it was dirty, the bathroom was also in a deplorable, unsanitary condition, there were flies inside the room, the most serious thing is that there was an internal door inside the room that communicates with the room next door, which could not be locked so they could enter from the other room at any time, what a horrible experience, I decided to go down and hand in the key, I could only be in the room for 5 minutes, I could not stand it any longer because of how terrible it was, I do not recommend that hotel to anyone and even less to any woman because of how unsafe it is, I will never return to that hotel.

All only a spot in the wall but the room it's clean and the service on front desk and housekeeping very good free of bad odors and I choose a smoker room Jenny the housekeeping very friendly and good worker

The room is very dirty and shabby. The bath tub has black mold all around the seal, and leaking. There is no any towels, shampoo/conditioner provided. For Morning breakfast, waffles dispenser does not work functionally. Milk was stored at refrigerator which the door could not close properly, Who knows the milk is good or bad. Anyway, stay away from Econolodge chain motel. You can pay the similar price for much better motel. Very very disappointment!!!

Quiet literally one of the nastiest places ive ever been in. There were flies and gnats all the room. The air woukd t cool room off. I ended up taking a loss on this room and paid for another room next door at the hampton inn to have a clean place to stay.

Very friendly front desk clerk working night shift.He moved me to a first floor room which I forgot to ask for during the reservation. Rooms are very dated and not super clean but for a place to just shower and sleep it was a get what you pay for place for sure, looks nothing like the photos shown online .

The place was falling apart a little bit with some of the towels stained. The free breakfast was okay. It’s not good, but not the worst.

You get what you pay for. Spent one night for a ball tournament. The nice man at the desk was helpful and personable. First impression of the property alone was not great but hey, there's a waffle house attached to it. We don't plan on eating the free breakfast here. Our room and I assume it's probably every room smelled musty or of old smoke. Whatever that unwelcoming stank is. Glad I brought a space fan, room spray, and turned on the air conditioner while we were at the ball field day 1. It smelled a bit better when we got back. This place needs a serious deep clean. Bathroom door had months of nasty splatters on it. GROSS! Everything is just very old. Hot water to wash my face but would never drink it. None of us would consider taking a shower and I had to clean the toilet seat. Beds are ancient and not soft. Sheets were clean I guess. There's good bright lights on the parking lot so that's a positive but made me think what kind of crazy is going on here to invest in that expense instead of upkeep. Single mom traveling with two young boys and extremely grateful it was quiet because we were very worried but we stuck it out for one night. We stayed at the front of the property but I imagine other rooms towards the back could get rowdy. Bottom line, pay double if you can afford a better hotel. But if you can't, we did it and so can you if you need to. Personally, wouldn't stay again. The bar for an economy stay is low so your expectations should be too. Good luck.

Convenient to Interstate. Property needs updated. Check in guy was friendly.

Room was nice. However, the bathroom needs updated and the walls cleaned. There were stains on the walls where people rubbed feces from their hands, etc making it nasty! Also the breakfast they offered was next to nothing. When my husband went to get orange juice, it was water. Same for the apple juice. We ended up going to the store next door and purchasing coffee and juice.

When entering the room, the bathroom was absolutely disgusting they had a bug, hair, and dirt all over the tub. The towels had female hair on it. We ended up just crashing but thankfully had family we could go to their house and shower. Definitely won’t stay again.

This place was absolutely disgusting. Looked decent in pictures, but don’t be fooled. Ended up having to get a different hotel because it was unfit to stay in and weren’t even able to get our money back. When we arrived they said the previous occupants of our room had been making “potions” and it smelled so bad they had to leave the door to the room open overnight to air it out. Like….WHAT?! Also looked like blood ALL over the floor…. Absolutely DO NOT stay at this place.

The staff was really nice but the rooms were dirty. Black mold is growing around the tubs. The shower curtain was disgustingly dirty. I didn’t shower. The walls are very dirty. It needs a major cleaning and painting. Thank goodness there wasn’t carpet. Also, there were no light bulbs in the lamps. Not a great stay, but again, staff was nice.

The bathroom had a good amount of black mold, the floor i wiped with a wash rag and it was real dirty
The bed was okay. Both my husband and I got bit by something. There was an old chair in the room and we both started itching after sitting on it.

Room (non smoking) had dirty/musty odor, pillows were half the size of the pillowcase, comforter had cigarette burns in it, bed was hard & horribly uncomfortable, water leak under the sink kept the floor wet, shower curtain bottom filthy & slimy, both entry cards stopped working after first use & we got locked outside until we could find someone to let us in. Overall it was a horrible stay & we will NEVER stay there again.

Very kind and helpful check in person.. Room is simple but clean and bright. Really appreciate the trend toward hard floors instead of carpeting that they have embraced.

Best feature of the room it had backout curtains!

Get what you pay for. It was affordable. Had to clean the bathtub myself before I could shower. Hair, dust and black dirt in the tub. It was that dirty. Uncomfortable beds. Bare minimum on breakfast. One type of cereal. Waffles. That was it. If you’re used to having a nice breakfast, this is not for you. One night stay for us with the grandkids. If you need cheap, this is for you. If you want more frills, you need to go somewhere else.
2.0
It says free breakfast but they don’t have one. Still using Covid as an excuse but still using free breakfast in advertisement. Linens are old and tile around bathtub broken and stained. The rest of the room was fine.

They need to have some comfortable beds and clean rooms. I did not expect to see dead roaches in the bathroom. I booked a room through Expedia because somehow, they were getting higher reviews. Better reviews mean great quality of experience all around.

Check in was relatively quick. Once my child and I got to our room things changed. The beds were full of cigarette burns and the room was foul smelling. The bathtub leaked and was dirty. I would NOT recommend walking around the room without shoes on.
3.0
TV only turned on or off. No channel selection or volume control. Plenty small fruit flies and a couple roaches. Door was tricky to open.

Bathtub was old and could have used some bleach cleaning. Other wise the room was clean. Breakfast could of had more variety

I was disappointed in this hotel, first of all when we got there it didn’t look like the sheets have been changed because they were all roughly, and there was lumps and bumps like it hadn’t been pulled up also, the bedspread you could see through the bedspread, how are you supposed to stay warm with half of a bedspread Ridiculous
And one more thing, there is a screw hook over the top of our bed what is that for seriously?

There were cigarette burn holes on the blankets and pillows. The room smelled horrible. There were burn marks on the bathtub.

I didn't expect much since this is a cheap inn. But it was way way worse than my very little expectation. The property was missing the lock chain. There was no shower towel in the room. The trash can was missing... OMG. Did they really put out this room for customers?

Mold on bath tub. Would even take a bath. Sheet was torn. Beds squeaked with every move. Nothing but cereal and waffles for food at breakfast.
1.0
Well, I tossed and turned all night because the wool blanket was making me itchy. Woke up itching so decided to toss the wool blanket. Thats when realized there was no wool blanket making me itch - it was actually the bed bugs. My legs and groin were covered with scratch marks and I was exhausted. I had just lived through my hotel nightmare.. bedbugs and had to drive 12 mores hours on broken sleep and itchy legs.The staff were great though!
1.0
I wasn't happy with burn holes and a wet spot on the bed spread, the bath tub was peeling and the room stunk, we didn't stay we went and turned our key back in and went back home. They said they would refund my money and it still hasn't showed up in my account

Will not be staying there again.

The sheets & pillows had stains & cigarette burn holes (even though we were told we were in a smoke free room). The room also smelled of smoke. We were told there were no extra pillows & had to go to a neighboring hotel for ice.

The staff were all very nice and very helpful. I got a smoking room so I didn't expect perfection but it could have been cleaner.

The room looked nice till you really looked at it the floors in the bathroom wear dirt around the wall vent in bath room was so dusty and made a loud noise every time you cut on the light it would make a noise the bed's were made back in 1818 I think all I felt was bored no cushion at all when set down on it it made a squeaking sound you could hear thur the walls had to cut tv up so I could hear mine

Good overnight stay
Quiet

About what you would expect for price Room needs lots of upgrades. Could use little more cleaning. Just a place to sleep. At least no roaches
