Econolodge Reviews

I was eaten alive by bed bugs at this hotel, here is my experience. I stayed at the Econo Lodge near Casino in Erie PA August 13-16 in room 469. When I first entered the hotel there was not agent at the desk. I stood there for 15 minutes, then started to call the hotel number, finally a man shows up. He was dressed in construction type clothing with splattered paint all over his clothing, and looked sort of rough. When he spoke, he sounded professional. I have never seen a front desk person dressed like that, it was strange.

The television clickers at Econolodges are impossible to use. They first make you register for Econolodge Wifi and then you have to open an Amazon account. (This is an enormous conflict of interest). Even then the system floods you with a ton of options that I have absolutely no interest in and I never was able to find a local television station - stations for other cities in Canada and other distant cities were relatively easy to find though.

After receiving my room on Monday July the 6th of 2026, the bathtub was filthy. The floor was nasty. There was animal feces on the floor. The entrance smelled of urine. Cleaning supplies were brought from the Dollar Tree and cleaning was conducted of the tub, toilet, and the floor. After informing the front desk employee, he said inform the general manager.

I stayed at the Econo Lodge in Hurricane, UT from 5/16–5/18/26. While the room was generally clean, several maintenance and housekeeping issues made the stay disappointing. The microwave was filthy, the top of the curtains hadn’t been dusted, the fridge was dirty, the beds were poorly made, and the towel tags were all hanging out. The closet rod had been replaced with a wire, and one of the headboards was missing a piece of decorative trim.

Stayed at the Econolodge in Holland Ohio 1201 East Mall Drive. This place was gross from the outside in. The parking lot is full of potholes holes and while it was raining, lakes. The rooms were gross and random hairs all over and cigarette burns on the sheets. The “breakfast“ was bread and 2 types of cereal and that went from 7-9. The old lady at the front desk was awful and completely unhelpful. When I told her my water had been lukewarm wake for the past 4 days she told me that nobody mentioned it to her (which I had a few times in the past 4 day) and then told me if I don’t like it I can go to another motel. Top it off, crackhead and hookers and very frequently around. Don’t go here if you have kids.

I stayed at the Econolodge at Hwy 1 Ormond Beach. They gave me one light bulb!! I thought it was a TikTok joke but it wasn't...

Who would think you could experience Compassion, understanding and patience from a hotel? That's what I have received since checking in on January 7th. I've been so lucky to have such kind people entering my life during this Hardship I'm enduring. Finding myself Homeless at 73 is a Horrible Nightmare. Having very little money, at times I wasn't able to pay for my room which the Manager extended some time for me. How many hotels can you name that would do that? Of course things were a bit off in January, getting better acquainted helped, and Trust was formed.

First of all, I would like to thank Krish, he is a very knowledgeable and pleasant individual. Krish is also an amazing host, and made the entire experience wonderful. This day was comfortable, the rooms are clean, and the breakfast is unbelievable. I will definitely be visiting Econolodge in the future. Thank you, Krish, for a great experience!

Econolodge near Reno-Sparks in Nevada. Staff was rude upon checking in AND checking out. Extra deposit fees for booking posted on one sign at the desk which said fees would be refunded upon checkout. This did not happen, upon checkout, we were told we would not get our deposits back for another 1-3 business days. Hotel noise was heard all night from outside the hotel, the floor below, and the hallway waking us up several times.

’s listed as a restaurant hotel and casino and it’s not no restaurant. There is no casino just barely a hotel then had to keep asking for access in the room because neither one of the cards to open the door to the room would work then we get in the room to turn on the heater cause it’s cold and the heater doesn’t work so I tried to clean up the filter a little bit and the heater and blow it out some with the hairdryer to get it to work even a little and the hairdryer doesn’t work so I had to go to the front desk to get a new hairdryer to blow out the heater after I had to clean it to make it work so I could be warm in the room.

Idaho Falls Econolodge billed us for smoking in the rooms when we never did. When I called to voice concern over the charge of the 250 the lady called me a liar and hung the phone up and now they refused to answer the phone so that I can talk to management. I would never stay there again. Ccompletely untrustworthy and you’re gonna be charged for things you did not do and no way to resolve them.

The stay here has always been horrible. Every single time that I have tried, but this time was especially nasty. It was my third and last time, giving these people a chance. Mainly due to the fact that they double charge me and they denied refunding at least the cheapest reservation. So they basically double charge name. I would never be able to stay in that place. Anyway, because I didn't have the time even if I wanted to so them giving me an extra night that I could only use consecutively, not even at another time within a year of the problem.

WARNING!!! If you have any respiratory issues, don't stay there. There was something in the room that really affected my asthma and allergies to the point that I was using my inhaler when I usually don't need one. I was coughing and wheezing, my chest hurt, and I had a really bad headache. I had booked the room online for four nights. On the second night, I realized it was something that wasn't going to get better, so I asked to check out the next morning and get a refund for the other two days. The desk clerk said that he couldn't, and I have to wait until the next morning to speak to the manager.

Bedbugs, poor condition, minimal breakfast. My partner and I made the grave mistake of staying at the Econolodge in traverse city, MI. The hotel was run down, dirty, and the room did NOT match the sparkling new looking ones on the Hotels.com website. The plumbing is backwards: "Cold is hot and hot is cold." There was also no full breakfast. Just a pot of coffee and pre-packaged muffins. Milk had been spilled all over the counter and coffee pot. No one was around to clean it up or put out other food. It took a long time for the hot water to come, there weren't enough towels, and a used bar of soap was in the shower. Gross.

A friend and I booked a 2 night stay at the Econo Lodge 127 Ontario Dr., Mt Hope, WV 304-877-6455 Oct 10-12, 2025 to visit Kaymore Mines in the area. We were hesitant upon check in as there were a lot of men loitering in the lobby and there was a girl working behind the counter who looked to be about 12. She was not the one who checked us in. We stayed against our better judgment because it was late. Room 106. My friend paid for one night- I paid for the other. The charges can be verified. The carpet in the room was stained, floor of shower dirty, rusted on the outside of the tub and the ceiling above was peeling and looked like it would eventually come down. We kept our luggage up on the desk, counter area and ironing board and did not unpack. Left nothing on the floor or beds.

The Econo Lodge in Terre Haute Indiana is closed due to squatters and it got shut down by the board of health. Me and my wife went there on October the 3rd of this year and there was nobody there and was writing on the walls on the outside of the motel damage done to it and trash and tires all over the place. But the reservations are still booking for this hotel.

If I could give this dump zero stars, I would. This is the most disgusting hotel in which I've ever stayed. My husband and I had never before been to Scranton but, after driving several hundred miles from New England, decided to spend one night in town before driving home to D.C. My husband made the reservation on his phone while I was driving; if we'd been able to read all the horrible reviews, there's no way we would have booked this dump.

Paid too much for a 1st floor room ($90.00) for a 1 night stay from August 30 thru August 31, 2025, at Econo Lodge near RJ Stadium, Tampa, FL. Room had roaches and smelled, looked like it was partially flooded at one point and never cleaned properly. I couldn't get a full night's sleep because of all the noise next door and outside my room. I am a Choice Rewards member, but I will not stay at an Econo Lodge again. I've been trying to get a hold of the manager, but they're never 'available'. I'm very disappointed with this situation and would like a refund. I didn't even get a receipt for my stay.

I can say this hotel is pulling the worst place that I've ever stayed in my life. And it's disgusting. Smells like cat pee dog urine. There's dog feces all over the property. Step out of your car and you're stepping in a pile of dog feces. You can't get known as linen. You have to take your linen to the laundromat and wash it yourself if you want anything. Staff are rude and it seems like the whole staff is on drugs here mainly **. Ice machine is constantly broke down the rooms. Are sweltering hot and it took us 2 weeks to get our deposit back. A place I'll never stay again in my life. I wouldn't rent a room for my worst enemy here. I can't believe Choice Hotels is actually affiliated with this place. Remind me of Skid Row.

We booked a non smoking room. They gave us a stinky smoking room. We asked to be moved. The very rude attendant told us hotel was sold out. It was not as we saw two rooms open on Booking.com. She then refused to refund our money and was hostile and belligerent. The room was dirty, stink and the hotel was clearly in total disrepair. Don’t stay there.

Great people, great service, had a small issue in room, they fixed it in less than 15 minutes. Very nice people. We were stranded because of another motel Motel 6. Which sucks. But the Econolodge they went out of their way to help us out and made sure we were comfortable

This is for the Econolodge In Richmond Hill GA. I wish we had an option for 0 Stars, I am currently staying this this hotel and was moved 3 times to rooms and wasn't given a good explanation why, I also saw Cockroaches in rooms and they tried to put me in there with them and I told them like it was. All 3 front desk reps doesn't really care about the customers, only MONEY. Ask to speak to the owner and was told a lot of different things, I was disrespected by the guy that works front desk because my refrigerator quit working and he really got rude and snapped at me because of it.

The workers could care less about their jobs!! Had a few disgusting workers pounding around in the next room for almost 8 hours---MY GOD!! Bathrooms are about DISGUSTING as the WEIRDOS that sit outside the door & smoke **!! BEYOND DISGUSTING!!! Not that it matters to the workers that could care LESS!! Pound & pound & pound in the NEXT ROOM!!! Get real!! The place to go if you like to smell ** in the room!!!

DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! This was the most discussing hotel I’ve ever seen. As soon as we walked in we were hit in the face with a cat pee type of smell and roaches everywhere!! There were stained bedding and traces of bed bugs. The bathroom doesn’t look like it’s been cleaned EVER. There were more roaches on the bathroom linens. We asked for a different room and the next one was even worse!!!

I want a refund for this room. The ceiling was falling in the room, was disgusting dirty, nothing worked, couldn't lock my door to protect my valuables, or my 2 daughter's safety. I did not even leave the room because the door wouldn't lock. Have multiple pics of things wrong with this room, & should be condemned. I haven't received a refund, even though the GM of Econo-Lodge in Hardeeville, South Carolina says she posted it the 5th, which we didn't even arrive until the 7th. They went ahead and took the money out for the 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th-one charge,& 2nd charge for two small pups@$15 a piece. We checked out the 8th. GM cursed & threatened me. Would give them zero Stars on everything- room , safety, staff, service, & GM... 0 stars.

Full sleep, do not stay. Infested with cockroaches and bugs. Floors are dirty. Linens are stained. Wi-Fi wouldn't connect. Staff does not know how to answer the office phone. Pictures online are not of this property.

Our reservation was at the Rodeway Inn (7300A West Broad st, Richmond VA) but apparently the building it's close and they sent us to the EconoLodge next to the Rodeway Inn. No problem with that, but the nightmare started as soon as we arrived in the room. First the bed linen was burned with cigarette butts and looks like it was not change for a new guest.

This place sucks. They went up on the price 2 different times. I was first charged $84 bucks, then after a week, we weren't finished, I was charged $94 bucks a night for 3 nights then had to stay 1 more night, it cost me a $100 bucks with no explanation why he went up. I will never stay there again. We seen roach bugs in all the rooms we stayed in. They charge whatever the hell they want to.

We booked one night at the Econolodge in Fairlawn, Ohio because we were camping in a travel trailer and severe storms were expected. Figured a hotel room would be the best place to be. Paid over the phone before seeing the hotel. Big mistake. First issue was the couple that got off the bus and followed us in. Nothing wrong with them but they had no luggage and we figured they only needed the room for a couple hours. Carpet leading to our room was almost black with dirt. Got to our room and we were immediately disgusted. We both looked at each other and decided to forego the $90 we spent and risk our lives in our camper sitting a severe thunderstorm. We were in the room for about 60 seconds. Can’t imagine why Choice Hotels would want their name associated with this dump.

I thought this hotel was in a “bad” part of the city and expected it to be old and dirty because it was cheap. NO, from meeting guys at front desk to checkout, it was a great hotel experience. Recently renovated, looked like new flooring and furnishing. Clean and fresh! And it was cheap! Thank you!

I Thought the price was right until I started seeing cockroaches! I didn't even have any food around. There is no coffee machine. Our toilet kept getting clogged up! The sign on my door says checkout at 12:00. The lady from the front desk came to my door at 11:00 and said I'm suppose to be out by 11:00. I told her my door says 12:00. She argued with me and then said OK 12:00 at the latest. I do not recommend this hotel to anyone unless you like cockroaches, stopped up toilets and no coffee machines.

Awesome 😎💯 hotel! The 24/7 coffee bar! Legit! The breakfast waffles! Amazing! 🤩 Comfortable beds, hot showers! Full size fridge! Affordable and close to restaurants! Ardmore Oklahoma Econolodge got my approval! Sincerely, Samuel

Review of EconoLodge Kansas City Downtown North. Arrived with a reservation for 1 night, had to request 3 different rooms as first had beard trimmings in sink and sticky substance on table, second a/c did not work and was labeled that was with a piece of tape, third room also had sticky substance on table. I went back to front desk and told to cancel my reservation and was told manager would refund me. I have tried to contact manager due to 6 different pending charges on my card but manager never seems to be in.

I tried to write this review in detail but I had to cut it shorter so it's more to the story. When arriving to this hotel after being guaranteed a room with a Choice rep we were turned away because I had a service dog. I was asked what was my disabilities which was validating and to bring in my dog to show in a crowded lobby where she sniffed everyone who passed her. When it was clear for me to go up to the front desk. I was told they canceled my reservation because they don't take no dogs of no sort and I have an aggressive breed (Pit). Then he said she didn't listen to any of my commands (I asked her to sit 2x and she sat on the 2nd). I asked did he call his boss and he informed me that he told him to cancel our reservation. I then explained to him how him and the other guy was violating a lot of my rights and breaking a lot of laws. He shrugged his shoulders like oh well.

Updated star rating to 2 stars due to the company reaching out to make up for it and giving points for a Choice Hotels account. While I still won't be returning to that specific location, one bad location doesn't mean all of Choice Hotels is bad. Thank you to their customer service team for reaching out to make things right.

My family stayed at the econo lodge in Ardmore, Oklahoma. As soon as we approached the desk we were greeted and offered free complimentary (cold) water bottles. They could tell we were tired from traveling. I have rheumatoid arthritis so we were given rooms close to the entrance to minimize walking. The front desk even got quarters for us to buy so we could wash clothes on site! Great staff and would definitely recommend.

I've stayed at Econolodge within the last month. They are under new management, have cleaned up a lot. Spent a week there I didn't see any kind of pest while was there. There staff was very friendly and accommodating, helped with every need I had. Very pet friendly, lots of area to accommodate the pets. Very big pool area nice and clean. Lots of shopping centers in area, also restaurants in walking distance. There are multiple parks around the area. Very good security team works very hard. Multiple types of rooms to choose from. Also can get refrigerator, microwave, rollaway bed, also have rooms with couches and chairs, desk, smart TVs, cable.

I stayed 3 days here and it was very quiet, I got the rest I needed. The staff was very helpful. I needed extra pillows and they brought them down to my room. Everything is in walking distance even if you want to go to the park it's right there walking distance and hotel right off the freeway, easy to find. Rooms are good size and has cable, fridge, microwave. Anything and everything you need help with the staff will accommodate and do their best to help with. Very great security staff also. There is lots of shopping centers in a mile radius around hotel from food, clothes, appliances, electronics, anything and everything you need is a mile away. Variety of rooms and beds. Kid friendly, pet friendly. Very friendly place, feel safe and can enjoy staying at.

Started the reservation At 7pm and got coffee that had curdles half and half. Went back to the room only to find it raining In our bathroom. I proceeded to complain to the front desk and said that could Switch us 2 rooms down and to take a look at it. I don't know about anyone else, but my idea of taking a look was to make sure that this room had no leaks or imperfections which would disturb our sleep the next morning. It was freezing, so my friend looked at the heating element and got stuck by something as we were trying to figure out what was sharp and he got stuck to empty syringes from behind onto the rug that made us want to continue searching. That’s when we search the whole room. Everything we found was hidden.
