What guests think

Econo Lodge Fredericksburg near I-95 offers basic, budget lodging right off the highway, with convenience for road trips balanced by mixed cleanliness and service, noticeable traffic noise for some rooms, and recurring reports of worn facilities and housekeeping lapses.

Several guests found rooms clean or quiet and the front desk friendly, and some praised easy check-in and value for a quick overnight. However, many others cited dirty rooms and lobby, strong chemical or musty odors, insufficient towels, maintenance problems like broken locks or holes, and disappointing or minimal breakfast. Expect a no-frills stop with convenient access but uneven standards.

As per previous reviews, the property is extremely dirty. The couch in my room needed to be thrown out. The walls and outlet covers needed a deep clean. The bathroom needed to be hised down from mold and dirt. Will never stay again.

Very decent for a motel, no roaches thank God. Heat/AC unit works, but extremely dirty and dusty. Some of the pillows gave a scent of urine.. floors could use a sweeping and mopping for sure.

I get it, it’s a whistle-stop hotel stay off the I95 for about $112. The hotel lobby as well as our room had the overpowering odour of mothballs. To the point that we woke up at 4:30 am to leave after a 14hr driving day because everyone felt ill. Not sure if it’s a tactic to keep pests at bay or if it’s something else but it’s not acceptable. Combine with the proximity to the adjacent local highway and travellers need think hard about how much sleep they want/need. It should be noted some of the chemicals in mothballs can cause reversible health effects that include headaches, nausea, eye and nose irritation and coughing, all of which with the exception of nausea we all experienced.

My car was stolen with important paperwork in it. Had to get a rental. needed a motel. paid around $230 around 12 a.m ahead because last 2 rooms was posted. Upon arrival plenty of rooms were available. Noticed, trash, toys outside and then smell inside the office, was told partial payment only. decided to stay. now he refused Service animal that detects when sugar is low. after showing 3 tags of shots, registration and service animal tag. He wanted paperwork, but only after I said it was in my stollen car. This motel manager is deceiving and dishonest. He was allowed to mistreat a disabled woman and her dog and keep the entire payment. We slept in the Car in that heat for 3 days running gas for air conditioning. Had to go back to the hospital for swelling endema. What we went through was hell. I Shouldn't have to post the videos of him cursing at me to get national attention over $230 Expedia bots called him. The police couldn't help they said its civil. Expedia is a huge company and thought would treat customers much better than this.

The staff is unprofessional. I called the hotel to cancel a reservation and spoke with someone who was very rude and hung up on me multiple times. I was treated like I was bothering them by just calling. When I finally reached a person willing to assist me it was too late to cancel or reschedule. If I had stayed at the hotel, the customer service I received over the phone leads me to suspect my stay wouldn't have been much better.
