What guests think

Reviews of Econo Lodge Lincoln portray a no-frills budget stay with mixed cleanliness and upkeep, comfortable beds, a very basic breakfast, occasional noise, and aging exteriors, along with some minor in-room amenity issues.

Guest feedback splits between very clean rooms and serious concerns about dirty surfaces, stained furniture, maintenance wear, and reports of pests such as cockroaches or bedbugs. Staff are frequently described as friendly and accommodating, though a few reviews cite rude interactions or problems around policies like service animals. The location is seen as convenient and generally safe, though the surrounding area is not especially appealing. Best for quick overnight stays when convenience matters more than extras.

The outside looks like a dump. Staff were nice. There is basically nothing for breakfast, just bread and cereal. The room however was nice, comfortable bed. Bathroom is tiny and couch was stained. Worst part is I traveled over 8 hours home covered in bug bites, which had to have come from the room.

They had outside entry to our room that was extremely convenient. Everything was very clean and pretty new. Our room had a fridge and microwave which we usually need. The king size bed was comfortable, too. We will stay there again when in Lincoln!

From the looks of the motel driving up, I wondered if we made the wrong choice. Outside could use some work. The room, however, was very, very clean and up to date and we felt safe and comfortable. Thanks for a good night's rest.

About what you would expect for the money. Room needed trim painted. Couch was extremely stained, especially on armrests. Floors sticky. Room did smell decent, bedding, towels appliances clean. Many of the other patrons are construction workers. Hard to sleep when they stayed up half the night in parking lot hanging out with music playing etc.

The room smelled clean and appeared amazing! However, when we returned after the football game we saw a cockroach skittering along the top of the nightstand and disappeared behind the bed!!! I searched the mattress for bedbugs and it appeared ok.

The hotel appears to have been given an internal makeover recently, but just the flooring, paint and decor. The beds were the most uncomfortable I’ve ever attempted to sleep on. (Can’t say slept because I maybe got 2 hours and spent 6 hours trying to get comfy). The furniture had stains and there was grime and dirt all over the bathrooms. I will not stay here again no matter how cheap.

The surface of the room was sticky and dirty. Bathroom... Let's just say I wasn't willing to take a shower in it. The bed sheets had some kind of stains on them but the bed was comfortable to sleep on and a/c unit worked. The cost of the hotel was cheap...but I'd say not worth the price. This place charged about $80 - $90 but worth $40.

Needed a place to stay overnight on a road trip - this worked for the price. No frills, and temp control in the room was a bit loud, but otherwise met our needs.

The AC unit was super loud and made it hard to sleep. In addition, the room they gave me was a lot dirtier than the other times I had stayed there. It looked pretty run down which was disappointing.
