Awful

There were several unsavory folks hanging around in the parking lot. The room had stains in the ceiling. Pieces of the wall were missing along the bottom trim. The window had a large diagonal crack. The room smelled of cigarettes. The tub was dirty.

its a very run down place it was a better place 6 years back once i check in notice the smell of weed and smoke plus the holes in the walls check under the sheets found a cockrouch in the bed running across the sheets killed took it to the manager and said im not sleeping here. i would just like my deposit back and cancel the room plus at first try to get in the room key card didn't work. no toilet paper in the bath room. alot of homeless people right outside the property. next door was a waffle house but close down. the area was great 6 years ago that was my first reason for going back plus i want a good nite rest tomorrow i got a important VETERANS APPOINTMENT AT THE MAIN HOSPITAL IN ALBUQUERQUE. so i left and check into another area Albuquerque were it was almost full and rates were higher in the late evening. it seem most place went up 20 bucks more at the last minute check in which suck so i guess the websites has its way on making money too.

More than Half of the accommodation list are none existence The employee quoted me on three different prices on the room( early check in fees not list, cites signs as notice, went to change price and sign with comfront about violations) Both employer and employee was willing grabt me the price I want, admission of wrong doing. My room was not represented properly nor was it clean, this was met with "well you didnt complain" Employee also lied to me serveral time during our exchange. All in attempt to avert guilt from his perceived wrong doing, also was willing to place a sign up citing the fee, as this is probably a common occurence. Misrepresentation of Room, Price, and accommodation. The only thing honest is this technically an econo lodge They quite literally list amenities, and charge for water. Most HOTELS charge 20 to 50 dollars for visitors, they charge 100 I was told the early check in was 50$ as a new sign was put up stating 40$ Econo lodge is own by choice hotels, standard is usually 44$ with a franchise fee of 8000$ (one time) Failure to meet choice hotel standards or price point Owners said he can charge whatever price he feels fit.

The rooms smelled of cigarette smoke, they stank and the bedding had cigarette burns. We left without even staying and found a room somewhere else. I asked for a refund and was told to contact who we booked the room through.

If I could give zero stars I would!! Run as fast as you can from here. The rooms have not been mopped in years. They were extremely sticky. The 1st room we were in the toilet was broken and would not flush. The shower and toilet had brown stains all over. Food was clogging the bathroom sink drain. In the 2nd room the cold water did not work at all. The ac filters have never been changed. Cigrette burns in the comforters and ashes all over the room. Loud banging of doors all night long. The fire alarms went off at 6am. And a police arrested someone in the parking lot at around 8 am in front of our room. Our allergies starting acting up almost immediatly because of mold and horrible filtration. And homeless people apparently have a master key so he had to check both rooms before putting us in it to make sure nobody was in there. The owner tried to keep our cash deposit stating the blankets on the bed were missing so we had to show him we were never given the blanket to begin with. Next time i would rather sleep in my car at a rest area than to go back to this motel.

Don’t do it!

We booked on hotels and expected a double non smoking room. When we arrived we were told that they did not have any double non smoking then they were able to find one. Then when we went to the room, the sheets were covered in dirt and looked like they have never been washed. So we asked to another room, which they gave use a smoking double room but was told it was not smoking. The ice tube and plate had cigarette burns. There was stains on the shower curtain. The floor was sticky from the smokers. This was a horrible experience and will never sleep at an Econo hotel ever again
