What guests think

At Econo Lodge Clarks Summit - Scranton, travellers describe a basic, no-frills stop just off the highway, with some appreciating quiet surroundings, affordable rates, and occasional remodeled rooms, while others report very uneven experiences across different stays and room types.

Cleanliness is a common concern, with multiple reports of dirty bathrooms and linens, musty odors, and occasional pests. Room quality varies: some offer pleasant creek views and comfortable beds, while others feel small or dated, lack basic items like toiletries or coffee makers, and suffer from thin walls, Wi-Fi issues, or awkward bathroom layouts. Service is inconsistent—friendly, accommodating staff are noted, yet others cite deposit or refund disputes, limited front-desk availability, accessibility misstatements, and messy outdoor areas during ongoing property work. Expect a very basic stay best suited for a short, budget stopover.

The ad stated that it was all one level. Not true! I showed up with my friend who uses a wheelchair. The room assigned was up 7 stairs. We had to find another place to stay.

This is the most basic accommodation- the room is small, there aren’t enough towels, and the amenities are minimal. The vinyl floor is a nice idea, but when it rains the whole room turns into a swamp. Lastly, the outside space is a total mess - fallen trees and plant debris fill the parking lot. On the plus side the room was freshly redecorated, and the bed was comfortable.

Does not look like much, this is true. The outside looks very shabby and the roof looks super scary. Major puddle in the back where we had to park. If I had seen the outside first I would have kept driving, in all honesty. Once in the room, it was neat and plain. The floor was very very dirty, but everything worse was tidy and clean. We spilled water and O wiped it up and the cloth turned black - so please spend time mopping your floors!! It was quiet and very comfortable.

From the outside, this place honestly doesn't look that great. But the inside of my room was so cute! I meant to take pictures but forgot. You could tell they spent a lot of time and money remodeling. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My only complaint is that the WiFi was terrible.

They obviously had new owners. The parking lot was full of tree cutter trees they were cutting down trees there was crap all over the parking lot but it went to my just renovated only room in the place was full of roof materials because they were putting roofs on all of the buildings as I went into my room. As I said they were putting on new roofs. When I pulled up I thought was this where I really booked a room? The room was so so you could see where there was leakage from the roof. The floor was absolutely filthy but because it was brown you didn't know it. But I had tracked in dog poop therefore when I went to clean that up I realized just how filthy the floors were. Would not recommend to anyone. And of course one towel made I had to clean the floors with toilet paper. When I asked him to blow the walkway. He did jump right on that and cleaned it up but the next morning when I got up to leave there was a wheelbarrow full of mulch getting ready to put new mulch out so I had to walk around that to get to my car with my cases. Maybe someday it might be a nice place but as for right now I don't think so

Shower control fell off and dripped constantly. Refrigerator dirty. Cobwebs in several areas. Obvious dust on lights. Shower curtain and bedspreads should be burned. Draperies torn and dirty. Outdoor carpet on balcony torn and dirty. Glad I brought Lysol wipes and spray. Would not use pillows

Despite obvious attempts to fix-up the property, it is still lacking. The mattresses were old and badly in need of replacement. The bedspread had holes in it. The toilet seat only had one anchor holding it in place. The carpeting outside the rooms on the walkway did not make you feel like you were in a clean, well-cared for place. If you need a cheap place to stay, this might be what you're looking for, but we won't be staying here again.

Arrived at 2:50pm, lobby door was locked. Proprietor ansered the door explaining check-in was 3pm. I came back 15min later, he apologized saying he was asleep. Very friendly though. Room was dirty and dusty. Sheets had dust from the walls behind the bed. Remote and light switches were grimy. Lots of spills on walls and doors. Lots of fruit flies and I did not have any fruit. TV input was messed with so it took a while to get that to work. Noise from nearby train tracks and little kids running and screaming. The "breakfast included" was only coffee and that was not readily available although I was told I could request that it be brewed. Will definitely go with another option if/when I return to the area.

There was a Microwave and refrigerator, but no coffee maker in the room. You had to walk to the office to get coffee. There were no extra pillows in the room and since we were only there for one night we did not ask for any more, we just made do. I will not book this hotel again.

I didn't know that road construction on I-81 was so bad and loud and went on most of the night. A train went through at 2:45 AM and sounded like it was going through the room. Walls were paper thin so I could hear my neighbor on one side having relations and on the other side a violent argument. Check in was good and staff were polite. The heater didn't work, and the sheets and bedspread were paper thin. No shampoo or hair dryer. Hey, I got what I paid for since it was the least expensive room around, but will not stay there again.
