This hotel has a ROACH problem. My first night we saw three roaches. Told the front desk and they moved us to another room. A couple of days later, there were more roaches in the new room. The front desk said ever since they moved to another extermination company they had issues so this must’ve been going on for a while. Nothing like staying at a hotel and shake it out your clothes worrying about bringing roaches home.

I read a bunch of good reviews before booking and they're all accurate. The pool and hot tub were very inviting and relaxing. The full breakfast was the best I've had at a motel. The room was extremely clean, the bed was comfortable and the A/C was quiet and worked well. Vending machines on every floor. Close to everything (beach, shopping, restaurants etc). The only flaw was the water pressure in the shower wasn't great but the positives greatly outweigh that. The staff was friendly and you can tell they all work hard. We will definitely book here again.

The cleanliness of our room was absolutely unacceptable. The floor was discolored and disgusting and it ruined our new socks! It looked like they hadn’t mopped or cleaned the floor for a while. Especially under the bathroom sink. Also, I would not recommend staying here if you have allergies or asthma. We also saw huge spiders! I was so disappointed.

It’s rare that I walk into a hotel room and find it as clean as I want it, but this room was spotless! The bedding, towels etc were spotless, the bathroom was perfectly clean etc. we stayed 2 nights and our towels were refreshed the next morning. The staff was professional and polite, it was priced well considering it was within 10 miles of gulf beach. The pool area was kept clean, vending machines on every floor, really we had zero complaints. We got a suite so we had fridge, stove, dishwasher and most the dishes we needed. The staff did their jobs well and an extra praise to the housekeeping staff because again probably the cleanest hotel room we have stayed in ever.

- [ ] Very clean - [ ] Tall ceilings, felt very spacious - [ ] Enjoyed the hot tub & cold dips in the pool - [ ] Free cookies at the desk - [ ] Typical hotel/motel amenities - [ ] Close to all shopping & restaurants - [ ] Waffle House is right beside the Econo, which we would highly recommend eating there - [ ] One downfall is that the walls to the adjoining room were quite thin so we could hear the person - [ ] You can hear some traffic noise

Everything was really good enjoyed the spacious room enjoyed the hot tub and the pool the only downfall is the bathroom is really small. You have to walk in move to one side or the other just to open and close the door is probably an inch between the door and the toilet. I'm sure an upgraded room would have a bigger bathroom but we had a basic room

Turned the unit on to cool. 65 to quickly cool off room.. unit shut off.. called the front desk to switched us to a king suite, A king with sofa bed.. Sofa bed absolutely uncomfortable!! This room a/c unit worked but barely cooled off our new room.. rooms were nice but who care if your sweating on an uncomfortable sofa bed!

We would stay here again (one of the king suites). The a/c compressor was quiet - none of that loud shuddering sound. The floors were LPV rather than icky carpeting. The bathroom sink area was spacious. Considering it was on the main highway, it was fairly quiet. The manager was responsive to a minor issue. The front desk was helpful.

Poor customer service. Called 3 times to the front desk before arriving to update payment information and was asked all 3 times to be placed a hold. Instead of being placed on hold I was hung up on. Called the 4th time and when someone finally answered she informed me that she had a customer in front of her and needed to place me on hold which she did that time. Stayed on hold about 15-20 mins to no one coming back to phone. When I arrived to check in the lady at the desk was on a personal call on her cell phone and did not get off until I started fussing about my earlier incident when someone else. When checking out the next day receptionist was on her personal cell again and do not ever get off.

Bs&Gs every morning along with an egg option and a meat option, pancake maker, plus the usual stuff that would come at a hotel breakfast; toast bagels, oatmeal, cereal, fruit option, yogurt, juices. The lady thatvusually runs breakfast doesn a phenominal job beiong things clean and stocked and fresh too! You can tell she likes her job! Not an awful drive to the beach in Gulf Shores either. Outlet mall right across the street for you shopping needs! Bed were comfortable and clean, and the pillows were nice! We got a multi bed suite. 2 queen beds and a pullout couch. Clean and spacious. Pool is a good size and clean. Hot tub was really nice as well. The pool has towels fown and a bin to put them in when youre done. They had toys and boogie boards there for kids to play with in the water as well! We stayed for 5 full days and didnt have a single complaint! We reslly enjoyed our stay.
