Econo Lodge

Beds were uncomfy, the toilet seat lid was not attached, just sitting on the floor next to it. The fire detector was not in the room at all. The lights above the mirror were broken, and so was the hair dryer. Called the front desk 5 times before someone answered.

Slamming of doors, missing shower shelves, burnt out light bulbs, heat lamp in bathroom would not stay on, face cloth and towels were like rough grit sandpaper, potholes in parking lot, continental breakfast is a joke, nighttime clerk stated that she needed a deposit for a online booking and that it would be returned immediately upon check out, then daytime clerk stated that it would be 3-5 days, nighttime clerk said no deposit would be needed if I had just walked in? So penalize me for booking online but to just take a chance and walk in and no deposit is necessary?! per single night is gouging when other "better" places I've stayed are per night single. I feel totally ripped off and I want a refund!!!

If you have tried to get a hotel near Traverse City in any time except the dead of winter you know that the prices for hotels are bananas. I was drawn in by a very reasonable price for a weekend stay but I worried that it would be a stone cold dump. When we arrived we were pretty sure we were getting a dump. The parking lot/exterior/lobby is a bit rough. The room however, was pretty good. Comfortable and spacious. Had all the items that you wanted. We didnt use the pool but the indoor pool area looked nice when we passed it. All we wanted was a comfortable nights sleep and we got it. If youre looking for more amenities then this isnt the spot

Beds were comfortable. Good location. No hot tub, pool opens at 3pm daily. Older hotel with no elevator.

The hot tub was too cold to use. Lighting in the room didn’t always work. Shower curtain was so short that water went all over the floor when showering Breakfast was mostly cold cereal and packaged pastry. Orange juice had a bad taste. Very over priced.

Old run down place that is trying to upgrade. No toilet paper holder, toilet seat would not stay up, no shelves in the shower for soap, phone was dirty and old, smoke detector was old and yellowed, not sure if it worked, mattress was uncomfortable and noisy, dirty continental breakfast bar with coffee maker broken, lack of employees. Not what I expected from a Choice Hotel.

We have no complaints about the staff; they were always friendly and helpful. The building and our room need upgrading. The carpet on the stairs and in the hallways is a very ugly pattern, is dirty and has a smell. The room we were in lacked features normally found in motels. There is no exhaust fan in the bathroom. It has really a garish, unpleasing pattern on the shower walls, and the apparent leaks on the shower floor were poorly patched. The lighting over the mirror was insufficient to do makeup or groom hair. The bed sheets are cheap and thin, and the elastic corners wouldn’t stay tucked in. There were white spots on the bedspread; who knows what that is. The complementary breakfast was lacking. All there was to eat was dry cereal, and pre-packaged sweet rolls, coffee and tea, no waffles, no fruit, no way to make toast. We had to eat breakfast out at a restaurant.

I was worried when we booked it. But no bugs in our room or on our mattress. Sheets were clean. Air conditioner worked great! The sink had a leak but overall looked like they have been working on fixing things. The staff was nice. Even being on the first floor right by the receptionist it wasn’t too loud. The breakfast was okay. There was no staff at check out which was odd to me, but it did say they were short staffed.

Sheets had sand on them! I told front desk in morning. Housekeeping never came. Coffee maker didn’t work. Shower curtain dirty. The late front desk guy was very helpful and apologetic.
