I mean, it’s an Econolodge. Don’t go in with high hopes, because you’ll be let down. Go in with low expectations… and still be let down!
Clearly the topic of place that doesn’t get any sort of maintenance ever. Popped tiles, shower curtain rods hanging on like a fat guy’s belt at an all-you-can-eat, inexplicably long strands of hair everywhere, rusty fixtures, and questionable drywall.
I suppose this isn’t all too unusual for Florida motels, but there was zero seal around the door. Light coming in from all sides- so all sorts of bugs coming in.
Don’t inspect the towels/linens too closely either. Stain city.
The photos you see posted on their parent brand’s website, Choice Hotels, DO NOT reflect the rooms at all. If they do, it might be the one or two they did over for those photos.
Staff doesn’t seem very knowledgeable or they just don’t give a flip. I asked for the laundry key (because they lock that room apparently) and the desk clerk just said “it’s lost, I think someone stole it.” I mean, if you’re locking a room regularly, how do you not have multiple keys? Heck, they’ve got plenty of keycard readers… fortunately the much nicer hotel next door had laundry, so I went there.
No breakfast to speak of either. First Econolodge I’ve ever found that didn’t offer some sort of breakfast.
If you’re looking for a place to stay and have low/no standards, by all means- stay here.
