Econo Lodge - Oxmoor

Tears in the floors, holes patched with duct tape in the walls, dirty panties in the night stand, water on the floor. Smelled funny, couldnt fugure out the shower. This place is just ew. Definitely don't recommend

This is the worst hotel I have ever been in. I am on my 50's and have never seen anything this bad. This was listed as a choice hotel. The rooms have not been updated since the 70's at least. There was 2 towels, 1 bath cloth and 1 hand towel in the room. The flooring looked new but there were dips in it where you thought you were going to fall through. The bed was mediocre to say the least. I would never return and neither were our friends that stayed there as well. The rug in the lobby was disgustingly dirty, the room had no blow dryer. The plate inside the microwave was missing and the inside had not been cleaned. Our fridge worked but our friends next door had a fridge full of mold and mildew that didn't work. When we asked for more towels they said they had to wash them to bring some back. They argued about giving us 2 bath cloths when there was clearly 2 of us in the room. This place needs to be condemned immediately! Run like hell and never go there. I wouldn't even go to the lobby for the continental breakfast. I wouldn't eat anything that came out of there. We were horrified but had booked online and would have been charged if we cancelled. The tile in the bathroom moved when you stepped on it and although the shower was clean and I used it I really didn't want to.

This is the first time I have ever walked out of a hotel. I can put up with a lot. I expect a room commensurate with the cost and this was CHEAP. So I expected dingy. What we got was DisGusting and Unsafe! First, the parking lot was sketchy as heck. There is a homeless encampment through the back fence and when we arrived at 10pm there were guys in cars just cruising around and around the hotel, yelling at anyone outside. I had booked and paid ahead, so we figured we could tough it out. The room was incredibly dark. The only lamp in the room didn't work and I discovered there was no plug on the cord. The light over the sink was very dim and I got an electrical shock from the broken switch for the bathroom light, which turned on and off sporadically like a horror film. The bathroom floor was spongy, like a rotten wood floor, which made little sense on the first floor of a poured concrete building, but it felt like we were about to fall through the floor. The toilet had already sunk about 1/2 inch into the floor and I cut my foot on the broken tile when I stepped into the bathroom. The shower curtain was shredded and there was a pile of dirt and a sock behind the bathroom door, which also had no door handle on the inside of the door. The only chair in the room, the ceiling, and the back of the door were splattered with huge dark splatter stains. It felt like a cheesy Halloween ******* house, it was so bad. Adding to this just seems like overkill at this point, but if we had opted to stay, which we didn't, the sheets didn't fit the bed and the pillow was paper thin. The desk clerk refused to give us a refund and we moved up the hill to Super 8 (and had a very pleasant stay.)

Econolodge will not refund your deposit. While waiting in the lobby, I saw another guest return to complain about their deposit not being refunded. The same thing happened to me. The rooms are also dirty and I got bedbug bites. Most of the guests are probably there because they got evicted and had no short term living options.
