I booked 3 rooms for the evening with 4 guest for each room. One room came with only 1 towel and the other with 2 each. We were given a total of 4 extra towels when requested. When I asked for more I was told that there were no other towels available and that guest are responsible for bringing their own. Found blood on the mattress in a room and the staff refused to give us a new room as they were full (although they continued to book rooms in front of me while I waited for them to come see the dirty room. Once he did he offered to change the blanket, but at that point the family in that room booked another hotel. Another room the toilet would not work and when I looked in the take to see if it was just the float I found a rag inside. I was told that out of three rooms I had three problems and that people never complain about them… we took the two towels from the dirty room to the other with one towel and got a call to both of the remaining rooms about 30 min later asking if we stole the towels. While in the lobby waiting on them to come look at the dirty room another gentlemen came in for what seems like not the first time to get help with a broken tv. There were several men loitering outside drinking and talking until very late. When we left in the morning we seen that the room with the blood had been booked. This was turkey an extremely disappointing experience.

The place was fine for the price. But there was a smell. There were cobwebs. The place had this feel of being a little run down.

I would never go back to this hotel. I prepaid for a non Smoking room. When I arrived I was impressed with the condition of the property, but that was it. The front desk told me that I had persevered a smoking room (wrong) he stated that’s all he had. I informed him that I had my service dog with me, he wanted me to pay a pet fee. ( I didn’t) the following morning around 9:30 my husband and I was getting dress and the door opened up . ( it was the housekeeper) my husband yelled “yo” she closed the door and left. Next my husband received a call asking did we have a dog and how we needed to pay. Well I went to the front desk and told them I wasn’t paying nothing. For one your not suppose to be charged for a service pet, 2) I reserved a non smoking room 3) why is your housekeeper coming into someone’s room before 11(especially since we hadn’t turned in the key) I was told that anyone that comes with a pet is automatically put in a smoking room.( check there reviews Im Not the only one )

At $100 per night less than other properties in the area, the EconoInn was perfectly serviceable. Our double room was a good size. The down sides were the group standing outside our room drinking and no hot water in the morning (though we had it in the evening.)

When arrived in the room there was a ball of hair on the sheets (not ours) and cigarette burns on the bed cover and blankets. I called the front desk to ask for these to be fixed. Her reply was "housekeeping is gone; I'll come see what it is." Upon the worker arriving in the room she dusted the ball of hair off the sheets and pulled the covers back up and said "all clean". She pulled the bed covers off and brought a clean blanket. We asked for 2 extra pillows. She said we would have to come get them. I walked to the office to get the two pillows, where she said it would be a $15 fee per dog and that I didn't tell her we had dogs. I told her 1.she never asked. 2. The motel is pet friendly and I was never informed of the fee. 3. The 2 small dogs will remain kenneled all night. The desk worker got an attitude and said there is a fee per dog and I can pay it or leave. I asked if I could get an immediate refund. She stated "yes". However upon checking out immediately, she said it would be two to three days before I would get my refund. Upon leaving there was a dead bat in the parking lot! #rabies #disgusting room rate was over $90 with taxes
