The Econo Lodge receives mixed reviews from guests. Several guests praise the friendly and helpful staff, particularly noting one front desk lady who provides excellent, above-and-beyond customer service. Some guests find the rooms acceptably clean and well-equipped for the price, with smoking rooms noted as pleasantly odor-free. However, significant and recurring issues are reported. Multiple guests describe the hotel as overpriced, old, dirty, and gross, with specific complaints about nasty bathrooms, wet floors, and maintenance problems like missing smoke detectors and faulty power outlets. A serious and common issue mentioned is the presence of bugs and roaches in rooms, which management has acknowledged but not resolved to some guests' satisfaction. While some staff are commended, other guests found them rude. The overall advice from dissatisfied customers is to spend more money to stay elsewhere due to the risk of unclean and poorly maintained rooms.
We stayed for 2 months while we were doing a project in Decatur. Will, the night manager, was great at accommodating all of our needs. Highly recommend!!
