Econo Lodge Near Motor Speedway

Had a pleasant two-night stay at the Econo while attending Bristol Rhythm & Roots. The festival shuttle stopped right in front of the hotel! Clean room, easy to access, plenty of parking. I hope to stay here again next year!

Very nice, very clean, very considerate, very quiet. Great place to stay

I booked this hotel four days July 22 thru July 26. I booked a non-smoking room. On check in the room reeked of smoke. I complained and mgt said they can't control who smokes outside and then uses the room, but they gave a second room. The second non-smoking room reeked of smoke. On both ends of the building the rooms are rented to locals that appear to live there long term. These groups smoke and I assume then use the rooms. I complained again and the mgt offered to move me again to another non-smoking room. I declined and stated I wanted to cancel the reservation, pay for the one night and refund the remaining 3 days. The whole area reeks of smoke. Doors on the icemaker area with broken out glass, trash around the parking lot and just generally poorly maintained. I contacted Expedia and explained the issue and Expedia told me to checkout and they would get the refund. I checked out morning of 7/23 and the mgr/owner stated he would issue refund to Expedia. Now Expedia informs me that they cannot get the refund. I will never stay in an Econo Lodge, when people think they can keep my money after saying it would be refunded, that is just not acceptable.

Our stay was good till our TV we found out wasn't working.. I went too the office and the lady said she has to call someone and we waited n waited and the next day I went back too the office and mentioned it to a guy and he said he has to call someone.. it would of been nice too watch TV since we drove all day...

Staff was very helpful. Rooms were renovated and had a refrigerator but no microwave. Beds were very comfortable. Need diff type of showerhead for more water pressure. Value was reasonable.
