As soon as I parked to check in, there was 4 cop cars, there was a situation that cops were looking for a person, multiple ppl from different rooms were involved, only reason I know is because after I checked in, got my keycard, I was put literally next to the situation room. I overheard it all. Besides that, the place was disguesting, smelled moldy, dust everywhere, in the bathroom the drywall/paint was falling off which probably explains the mold smell. The towels were Terrible, left your skin with a bunch of lint. I’ll never touch these hotels ever again.

My sister and I booked a room here for the Eras Tour and found out day of stay they had bumped us. We received no notification from the hotel. We called to confirm and that’s how we found out that we did not have a room. The lady I spoke to was rude and unhelpful.

No stay due to NO room availability.
Classic horror movie motel look.
Stay away!

The ECONOLODGE in Gretna Louisiana was terrible. The room was not cleaned nor prepared for anyone’s arrival. There was a towel left on the sink, soap was left on the rim on the shower, toilet paper wasn’t refilled, nor was there a coffee pot. The staff was rude and charged us more for our Labrador. This is not a place I would stay at nor recommend anyone to stay at.

It had coffee but no coffee pot when asked was told they didn't have one.
We had 5 nights booked Sept 7, 2024, thru Wept 12, 2024. On the 3rd night found out Hurricane was coming in. We decided that we should leave while we could travel and not get caught in evacuation routes back to Kentucky.
We called the service desk and told them we were leaving because of the incoming hurricane. We asked for a refund for the 2 nights we weren't staying. She told us no refund, if they refunded ours, they would have to refund the others also. I told her this would be the last time we would ever stay there.
We got up early on Tuesday morning to leave for our home Kentucky. We left key in motel.
Will never stay at a Econo Lodge ever again, anywhere, any state because of this happening. We purchased the insurance, but we know it was an event that was out of our control. We could not stay with a hurricane moving in.
I'm sorry for filing a complaint but I think it's very unfair to not refund 2 nights because of what was happening.

Shower was clogged, there was a television but dis not work. When i called front desk they said it was a wifi issue and that there wasn’t gonna be any tv. As someone who likes to wind down feom a busy day tv is a comfort.

1.5 / 5.0
It was good. It was close to a lot of places I needed to go to. There was a lot of nice restaurants around. The bad thing was that it was a little dirty, didn’t have a vent in the bathroom, and the door wasn’t properly placed which allowed a lot of noise into the room.

I arrived to the motel to check in and was advised by staff that there were no rooms available I had to call the police to get a understanding of why I can’t get a room or refund I’ve bn trying to contact someone about the situation am I keep getting the run around if I can’t get a refund I will be contacting my bank and filing charges on the motel and also the booking agency

The hotel and its accommodations are out dated. I arrived to the area a bit early and stopped by the hotel to see if early check in was possible. Unfortunately it was not as check in time was at 3:00pm. I was asked to come back after 3pm, so I did at 3:45pm. They still didn’t have anything ready and asked that I wait 2 hours for a room to be ready, so I waited. Almost 6pm when a room was finally ready. I had booked two rooms for myself and family with two double beds in each for two nights. Getting the rooms and only one room was ready with two beds and the other was a room with one king bed. They would be able to move us into a room with two beds for our other night. Not cool. But we decided to make the best of what was available because we had been traveling and were tired. The king room had these plastic dollar store bags as lamp covers, a ceiling tile was missing, the T.V didn’t work and the bed was broken. I go down to the office to let them know and they send maintenance to fix the problems. The T.V was just out , he replaced a ceiling tile, and tried to fix the bed with a brick and was still unsuccessful. We changed rooms to one with another king bed and that one was subpar yet we were able to salvage our stay in that room. Being that we were family we didn’t mind sharing a bed. The room with two beds was also subpar but we made it work as most of the hotels in the area were fully booked.

The bath tub had soap scum build up in it. The outlets in the restroom did not work. House keeping did not over the course of three days. Requests to staff for an extra blanket and towels for the bathrooms were taken but fulfilled.

I was unable to check-in. The receptionist said they had had a flood and the rooms were not fit for use. I drove nearly 350 miles to find I had no accommodation. Most unsatisfactory, it's ruined my weekend. I trust I will not be charged for anything.

The property was pretty much as advertised. Stayed 2 nights there was no house keeping between the nights. Way too much noise at night, horns blowing, dogs barking, moving furniture above us. It said that they had a breakfast, coffee only is not breakfast.

So much was wrong. The room was clean as it should be. The sink was disgusting and there was dust everywhere. The toilet started back up, which was disgusting. I notified the front desk who were quick about fixing it meanwhile my husband had to go to McDonald's to use the bathroom. Come back hours later and there's no running water. This place was horrible, something off of a movie. I thought it was a prank at first but that what my husband gets for being cheap. I wouldn't recommend for animals.

Room was filthy dirty. Bed had hair on it. Tub was all rusted on the bottom. Shower curtain had blood stain. Terrible experience. Originally had a three day reservation I canceled two, had to stay one night, did not had where to stay then.
Not recommend. Inexpensive doesn’t mean it has to be filthy dirty!
