The parking lot is strange and ways to reach it seem as though you should have an off-road vehicle as the terrain is very rough. The wait for check in was long, but staff was nice. The room itself was mediocre with a musty/damp smell. It had some cosmetic damage to the walls in the bathroom, the shampoo and conditioner wall containers were not stocked and there wasn't enough towels or washcloths for two people. The breakfast room is small and we had to wait in line outside the door. The food was average. There was coffee and infused water in the lobby which was a nice touch. However, the lounge area in the lobby was dirty. The table contained spilled beverage and had a beverage container left on it for more than 24 hours. The pool and hot tub area was the highlight of the stay. The hot tub was the perfect temp and had a lot of space. The pool was cool, but clean and refreshing. In a room just off the lobby, there was an "arcade" that had 3 claw games and another unique string cutting game. Have never seen a room like that before in a hotel. This hotel is close to many stores and places to eat. It is also less than 20 minutes from Canal park.

You get what you pay for. Very outdated and not the cleanest. Paper thin walls and rude guests will ensure a terrible nights sleep. The back security door is broke and anyone can walk in after they make it past 30 pot holes in the parking lot. Overall we survived and the location is excellent being right next to a Mexican joint, a DQ, and a Subway. 12 min drive to Canal Park.

Ok for the price. Parking lot is still a disaster. Wi-Fi wasnt working the first day. Hot tub wasnt full enough so the water was at my waist when seated and the jets werent fully under the water. Girl at the front desk didn't seem to give a crap about anything. Last year we stayed there and there was a water main break so no running water. Big inconvenience but they offered a significant discount. I ended up getting about $20 back. So i likely will not stay here again.

Front desk was rude checking in, eating while checking me in. Talking with a mouth full of food. Keys didn’t work so I went back to the desk and it was an inconvenience for the lady to activate the keys. When entered the room it smelled of cigarettes badly!! Used toilet paper in the microwave, was not vacuumed, shower had gunk and hair stuck to the walls, poop around the toilets, mud splattered on the ways. Only two lights worked. Switched us rooms and the next room was just as bad. Dead bugs in the drawers, sheets were covered in hair and crumbs.

Not very clean! There was a live cockroach in the bathroom when we checked in. We killed it and the next morning another cockroach was crawling out of the sink. There was hair and stains still in the bathtub. I'm only hoping the sheets were changed. The entrance to the back parking lot was a dirt road with huge potholes you needed to try to avoid. "Staff, however, was very friendly.

We started in a room downstairs… cockroaches fell from the water-damaged ceiling onto my girlfriend as she took a bath. There were also cockroaches in the vanity cabinet. After killing two of them, we took them to the front desk. Staff was very helpful and moved us to another room upstairs. That room had an unmade bed and garbage in the bins. They then moved us to a third room which was mostly fine, though there were stains on the bedspread.

This is budget hotel so keeping that in mind, it was an alright stay. We stayed only for a night passing through. The issue for lower score was the condition of the room. The air conditioner was broke and didnt cool well, it was also clogged with dirty filter grime and the filter door was hanging off when we walked in lol right off the bat husband actually had to clean it when, and try to fix it closed. Also, the smell :( room had a strong odor. The air that blew out of the ac was also stinky, regardless his efforts to clean it. Im a budget traveler so im not looking for nothing fancy, just clean. a new air unit (atleast) and ripping the old carpet out would probably do it wonders! Apart from that- check in was good, the complimentary breakfast had really good selection, loved the waffle maker for staying with kids! The pool was small but was nice to have, always a plus with a pool! theres a subway across the street. walkable. All in all, I would stay again if i had to.

The TV, and the A/C in our room didn't work. The desk clerk attempted to get the TV working but was unsuccessful. The A/C filter was filthy, and as an HVAC Tech, I cleaned it and the coil, but it never really worked well, and needs to be fully serviced. We didn't spend much time in the hotel, so neither issue was a deal breaker, merely an inconvenience. All of the staff we dealt with were polite and very helpful.

I was told this was a new policy and that I needed to vacate the room because the fee would not be waived and that I should be grateful that he wasn't going to charge me for canceling the reservation. I left with no place to stay.

Please don’t stay here. Don’t let the price entice you. We had to be checked in to 3 rooms before we got one that wasn’t occupied by people we did not know. Took that as a sign to lock our door from inside immediately. Good thing because at 9pm and midnight two attempts to enter our room. Front desk blamed two separate reasons. She was very nice to us for not getting angry, but I had to strongly persuade her to come up to the floor to make sure our 3rd try at a room was vacant. It wasn’t, but at least she was present to finally find us an available room. Good grief. Plus we witnessed two other groups experiencing similar problems.

I had friends waiting to meet for dinner so not a big deal for me, but others were very upset. The front desk people were as helpful as they could be, but it was a very bad situation. they confirmed my reservation and let me drop my bag behind the desk which was very nice. after i returned at 11:00 p.m. I still had to wait to get checked in.

Got there earlier than check-in but they were able to switch our room so we were able to get ready at the hotel before our event. We even woke up late and they allowed us to have an extra hour to pack up so we didn’t have to scramble.

This property was one of the few remaining in Duluth during a busy fall weekend. It was adequate and met our needs. Getting to it through old pot-holed back roads and old parking lots was a bit of adventure. There was a busy Mexican restaurant next door that probably added to the noise and drunk guests in the building.

The Econo Lodge is easy to find in Duluth next to the Miller Hill Mall. It is located next to a highway but the room we had, which was on the end and nearest to the highway, was very quiet. We were impressed with the cleanliness of the room too. The clerk who checked us in was very sweet and even suggested a Mexican restaurant, Maya, which was next to Econo Lodge. We’d recommend this hotel!

No waffles on Thursday and Friday. Same story. It was obvious the waffle maker had not been used for some time. Finally on Saturday....Waffles!! If they are only serving a hot choice on the weekends, they should say so. Otherwise everything was good.

The breakfast was minimal with no hot items (trays were labeled but empty). No hot water for tea and only apples for fruit. There was a wait at check in with 4 people in line. The gentleman was nice and professional. In the morning the desk was vacant once and the other time had 2 girls that didn’t acknowledge us. Overall the property is aged.
