Bed Bugs!!!!!!! Front desk didn’t want to admit it. They didn’t give a refund, very rude. They moved me to another room quickly but I already taken these pictures. I showered and changed clothes and had to make sure none were on me. Then I left. They did not give me a refund or cancel my second night stay.

BED BUGS!! Horrible stay. Woke up to bed bugs. I contacted the front desk. Two men came to the room and without actually looking decided to say there were no bed bugs. They moved me to the room across the hall. I don’t know if bed bugs could travel room to room or not but I didn’t want to take chances. I decided to leave the hotel a day early. They gave no refund. I had bite all over my right elbow. I called the front desk to let them know I had bites and they definitely had a bed bug problem and they responded with “ What do you want us to do with that information?” So I paid for two nights, stayed one and got bed bug bites and then had the stress of taking the right steps not to transfer them. Very stressful, waste of money and time. If I could give zero stars I would.

Smells like smoke/weed/musty

Rooms could definitely have been cleaner, tops of tables & dressers were dusty and not wiped down. Carpet in hallways are filthy. But the worst part of this hotel is the overwhelming smell of stale cigerette smoke/weed/mustiness. We had 2 rooms, one smelled better than the other but still had to go out and buy air freshners and crack the windows. Extra roll of toilet paper in one of our rooms looked like it had been dropped in toilet or sink and then left to dry. It was discolored and shriveled, that immediately went into the garbage.

Disappointed.

I had to cancel my stay 5 days in advance because I was in the Hospital with Pneumonia. I was told the room was non refundable, which was fine when I reserved it, but I didn't know I was going to be in the hospital, and unable to make my concert and stay at the hotel. Under the circumstances I asked to get a refund or voucher. The lady at the desk was going to ask the owner and call me back. Never heard a thing. I called again. She heard my sick voice on the phone. 2 weeks and I am still not over my pneumonia. I was able to get a voucher for the concert tickets, and I stayed at the hotel last summer. I'm on disability, so not refunding the $75.00 is really not nice. I would have booked again at econo Lodge if they would have done that. Frustrated, Marlene Meinhard

Our room was dirty and it was obvious it had not been cleaned thoroughly. The bath tub had a slimy feel, stains on the curtains, splatters all over counters and even on the lampshades. Even the mirrors were dirty with splatters all over them as well. There needs to be better cleaning done here it’s definitely unsanitary would not recommend.
