We knew we were booking a smoking room, but what we encountered was far beyond what we expected. The room was absolutely disgusting—there were food or some other kind of splatters all over the walls, the bed was completely broken down, and the bedding had noticeable burn holes. There were burn marks all over the room, and the smoke smell was overpowering. To make matters worse, there was no smoke alarm, and we even found a cockroach in the bathroom! The door lock barely worked, but somehow it still kept the door closed. The overall condition of the room was unacceptable for the price we paid—$130 for a night that felt like staying in a dump. The next hotel we found was under $100, in much better condition, and definitely a more pleasant experience. Do yourself a favor and stay elsewhere!

Nastiness at it's BEST!!

When we arrived an older, drunken gentleman had to scoot his chair over, so my husband could unlock our door so we could enter the room. Upon arrival, the smell was quite musty. Stink Bugs lined the corners and ceilings of the room. The sheets looked like they hadn't been changed in multiple nights of use. Hair and grime, mildew and mold were all through the bathroom area. You could see the "built up" of nastiness along the walls and baseboards. We never even took our backpack off! Walked straight to front desk and told them we were not saying there, and ask politely, for a refund. They would not. And he said, Stink Bugs were no big deal. Well, I say, There should be NO bugs, in NO spiderwebs, in my room! Don't waste your time with this place!! Not worth it!

The room had a dirty, musty, smell. The metal box & frame for the bed were were extreme noisy every time you tossed or turned. Area reeked of Marijuana. A child was screaming in pain or terror & I was so concerned I ran out in my robe to render aid. Appears that a family w/ young children that work there also lives there. The children & their mother were also playing w/ toys in the parking lot, blocking access

Most disgusting place ever!!!!

This place was disgusting. Dirty, stains on sheets and bed clothes. Floors was never cleaned walls had dirt all over them water stains on the ceilings. roaches. We went to the desk clerk and wanted more towels to put on the floor so we didn't have to walk on it. He refused, said we had the 3 towels that we were supposed to have. So we told him about the floor and the bugs. Told me the bugs were stink bugs. I told him I said I know the differences between stink bugs and roaches. Told him I would bring it to him. He didn't want to see it. So he said that he would make sure that our room would have a full service 1st thing in the morning. We left about 8am and didn't come back till 11pm. The only thing they did was replace the 3 towels. Didnt make the bed, mop the floor. Nothing. Now im sure you ask we did we stay. Well its 6 hours to get there from home. We called every Hotel-motel in a 30 mile area from where we stayed. Everyone was completely sold out. I would have paid double the price if someone would have let me, because I offered. This hotel should be completely closed till its up to code because its not. The pictures that are online are very very deceiving. Looks nothing like them. They had to have been taken at another hotel. I will never stay with hotel chain in my life. Econo Lodge. It was so disgusting that we left without taking a shower. We waited till we got home. Please take this off your list of places to stay. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!

The price seemed good, but when we got there people were drinking outside the rooms. The room itself was beat up. It smelled like stale cigarettes but we booked a non-smoking room. There were scratches and scuff marks everywhere on the walls. We left without staying the night because we didn't feel safe there.

If I could give zero stars I would. There were dead roaches in the floor. Walls disgusting. Pillowcases disgusting. Smelled awful. I was offered another room, and even after speaking with Hotels.com was only given one nights refund but I was not staying there. Hotel said it was hotels.com policy not to refund me and then hotels.com said it was the hotels. Either way I still haven't gotten my refund of one night and was very inconvenient to have to find another hotel such short notice in a SEC game weekend. Wouldn't recommend EVER!

Not great.

When I arrived there were no friendly smiles at the reception desk. I got checked in easy enough, though. When I went to my room, it looked okay. But, on one bed I was sitting it felt like there was dirt and dust crumbs. It could have been from the ceiling since it was that popcorn stuff, or it could have been from a person that had a cat and it would have been kitty litter. So I went into the other bed, which was better. But, the place smelled like urine. Not fun. No breakfast like I was hoping. But, I may have gotten it mixed up with another hotel. Overall, I probably won't stay there again.
