Do not stay here. Everything in our room was dirty. The towels looked like someone wiped their shoes off on them. the bedding was dirty. Unfortunately, we checked in after 11pm because we were at cedar point all day so there weren't really options to stay somewhere else. I paid $180 for the night. Luckily, I had my own blankets and towels and stuff we brought with us.

Horrible front desk

The employee at the front desk was rude and called me the ich word five times because I kept asking to reports himself since I could not understand him. Horrible service.

Liar, Robs money by the name of security deposit.

The front-desk lobby keeper charged me a security deposit of $30 stating that its refundable and would returned upon verifying that there are no stolen towels and no stench of smokes. I checked out clear on the next morning of my stay and the security deposit return would hit back into my account within a couple of days. It's been 25 days and it never did. I called him up twice and he claims he returned it. I called up the bank and verified that no such transaction got posted.

Slum hotel

Was a total dump, room smelled, towels were dirty, breakfast was a joke, coffee, 2 types of cereal, and when we walked in the owner came in barefoot with a room temperature gallon of milk. They also kept the deposit, and room was cleaned when left, with no damage. Paid $250 for one night, been in way nicer hotels for $55 a night. Total dump all around

My stay at Econolodge, Norwalk OH

First if the room looked like the one on the website, it may have been okay, the rooms are filthy as are the windows, the owner /manager? is the rudest person I have come across dropping the F bomb on me more than once when asked if maybe there was maybe an egg cushion to make the bed more comfortable I was told this to look at the F'ing sign this is Econo Lodge not the Hilton and with cigarette burns in the bedding thats for sure. The truth is I should get a full refund, you would not even put foot in the pool, its so filthy. The guy running this place is a nut case.

The hotel is rundown and nothing like in the pictures. They say breakfast is included and then the door was locked during breakfast time. The toilet was clogged and the place dirty. Also the person at the front desk was disrespectful and told us that “ for breakfast they have only cereals” and we get our deposit back if we don’t steal or break stuff.

Find someplace else

Just needed a place to sleep for the night. Property is unkept, grass is knee high and an unexpected $30 deposit in case of room damage. I was still charged the $30, and no refund given. When I call, it just rings, nobody answers and no machine to leave a message. Wanted to turn my room keys over at 6:30 am, doors were locked going into front desk. Came back at 10:30, it was unlocked but nobody around. Rooms are from the 1970’s. Do not recommend!
