Meh. The place was rather rundown, and the neighbors were noisy.
Room had black mold all over it. Bedding was not clean. The locks on the door didn’t work. Felt very uncomfortable and not safe to stay at.

convenience to airport.
Stayed one night due to proximity to airport. Came in from NY. Worked well for me. Seems like new management that is struggling to fix up an old old place. I expect it to become progressively better and I will definitely stay again.
Horrible conditions. Dirty room, broke. Items in room. Mold in bathroom. Stained bed clothes

The room was clean but very old and outdated and things need to be fixed, such as peeling wallpaper, etc. the desk clerk was friendly and check in was easy, but I would not stay again due to the fact that it is needs a lot of updating and the whole place smelled of cigarette smoke
If you wanted ice, you had to go to the lobby and ask...and they scooped it out of a cooler .. the breakfast advertised for free when i booked? Didnt exist. Just a sign that said they dont serve it due to covid...and a handful of packaged muffins. Wont be staying again
I have to say this was the most disgusting property I have stayed at in some time. Since there were no other rooms available to stay for over an hour away from Peach Fest, we were compelled to stay in this filthy, squalid, unkempt, falling apart property. Cigarette burns in the bedclothes. Molding separating from walls, broken safe, broken falling to pieces furniture, and no maid service after four nights made this property one of the worst I have ever stayed at. A true zero-star hotel.
We did not stay but moved to another hotel. The room was dirty. Hair, plastic wrappers and dog kibble on the floor. Sticky substance on bathroom vanity. Pillows used in one bed. No TV remote. Unacceptable. Felt bad for the receptionist who was very apologetic and gave us a full refund.
Extremely disgusting wires hanging from ceiling duck tape holding micrwave together the filter on the a/c was the most disgusting thing I ever saw I grabbed my lady and left instantly
First room was dirty. The halls smelt like smoke, and just disgusting. When I opened the door, I saw roaches and bugs crawling around. The floors and tables were dirty. Pillow cases had stains. I went back and asked for another room. The other room was a little cleaner, but still very disgusting. A/C didn’t even work. Avoid this place at all cost. Ended up getting a refund immediately.
We didnt actually stay! We reserved a room, walked in and within 10 minutes we were out!
As soon as you walked in all you could smell was pot and holes in the doors. Garbage bags left in the halls.
Once in the room we looked at the beds that had cigarette burns and stains all over. The blankets were stained and had white gunk hardened on it. Fruit flies were in the bedding as well.
Then ultimately the other people in the hotel were loud and screaming profanities at their children.
Altogether it was dirty and not a welcoming place! We left within 10 minutes!
Place is a dump…., where to start…, the so called pull thru( you know the one you pass through right at the entrance door before you go park) well guess that is the front desk guys personal parking spot so you have to back up and go around you can go that way… got my key and was told to go around back… so I did so onto the room as soon as you open the door this stench smacks you in the face … grab out the key card swipe swipe swipe finally the second key works the room doesn’t smell but! It needs torn down or totally renovated…. Two tvs in the room why oh only one works …. Fridge is hotter then the room all furniture is chipped, ok it looks like they picked it up from the dump seriously. The desk and chair OMG the chair was torn up with duck tape on the seat…. Not to mention the not so omfg what did they do, wait I don’t want to know any more I think the room is rented by the hour! Stay away!!!
El hotel en los alrededores sucios en hotel completo necesita una renovacion el cuarto olia mal el piso estaba resbaloso el baño daba miedo de tan feo y tan viejo y sucio el peor hotel que me e quedado
This was the dirtiest room I have ever slept in. Sheets were stained and covers on both beds had cigarette burns. The door on a cabinet had been ripped off the hinges. The shower curtain was moldy and the bathtub faucet was broken and dropped. The back of the door looked like a set from a horror movie. It was a crack house without the luxury of drugs to make you not care about the filth.
I will never stay here again. I should have read the reviews but was in a rush and because of graduation weekend, so many other hotels were double the price. Should have been a red flag. The check in area was dirty. The room was “non-smoking” but it smelled like smoke so bad and I found ash on the nightstand. The floor was sticky, there was mold in the bathroom, hair on the toilet seat, and there was PLYWOOD nailed to the bathroom floor by the shower. The man at check-in made me pay $2 to “insure” my items up to $5k if the safe was broken into (sketchy) but the safe didn’t even work. There were burn holes in the comforter and I’m not even sure if the sheets were changed. The room above us had people stomping around all night long and into the morning. The mattress was extremely uncomfortable and probably 30 years old. And the air conditioner barely worked. The only positive was there weren’t any bed bugs and the tv worked. I would have gotten my money back if I could have. I probably would have been more comfortable sleeping in my car. Never again. Seriously do not stay here.
BIG LESSON LEARNED. READ REVIEWS. I was in a rush and booked this one evening for a trip. My mistake I didn't read the reviews. The reviews are spot on. If I was writing another it would sound like so many that are posted. I've never stayed in such a disgusting place. Figured Econo Lodge would be OK. Price was cheap but by no means the bottom of the barrel. My room however was the bottom of the barrel
Do yourself a favor and never stay here. This place should be torn down. I can't believe Econo Lodge has their logo on the building. I was yelled at and followed for asking for extra towels, the mold and mildew was all over the bathroom, the whole building reeks of weed and smoke, the floor was all sticky in my room, burn holes on the blankets, along with dogs barking all night. It was definitely the worst place I've ever stayed at, and the shadiest...
