What guests think

At Econo Lodge Kingsport East, guests describe a budget stay with friendly staff and convenient highway access, but experiences vary widely due to uneven cleanliness and intermittent noise that sometimes disrupts otherwise quiet stays.

Several reviews note renovated or updated rooms, though some are small and show wear, with firm or noisy beds and occasional hot-water or pressure issues. Breakfast is minimal, typically just cereal, coffee, and packaged pastries. Location is easy off I-81 and near area activities, but a car is helpful and a few found the entrance hard to spot. Expect basic, low-cost lodging with trade-offs.

Room was teeny-tiny. Two people could not pass each other in area between bed and cabinet. Circuit breaker popped and no one on site could fix it. Lost use of microwave. Learned at that point there were no GFI switches. Room was poorly finished with nail holes snd mollies just left in the walls. Comfy bed, great hot shower and premises were well kept. Easy on and off I-81.

Clean and quiet. We could smell the cleanliness as soon as we opened the door. Parking directly outside of room was super convenient. Beds are soft. Ac/Heater is newer and works well. Only complaint is that they only provide 2 pillows per bed and the blankets aren’t very warm; first world problem, I know lol. 10/10 would stay again and bring my own extra pillows and a thick blanket.

Whoever is rating this place 10/10 on hotels.com should be ashamed... this place was not good. The lady at the front desk could not hear through the glass... I was greater by many signs from management telling me they have nasty dirty long term guests. Just because I have a dog with me doesn't mean I should get a room with a dirty floor. It was sticky and visibly dirty. The bathroom was in great need of a deep clean with pee stains on the wall and inside of the door looks like it hadn't been cleaned at all. Then after driving 13 hrs I went to take a hot shower and got a luke warm shower instead. The beds looked clean.

Room dirty, spider webs in just about every corner of the room. Had to kill spiders daily, door wasn’t insulated so bottom and side of door had large exposed area for rodents and insects to crawl through. Management basically said to deal with it and provided extra towels to stuff the opening in the door.

Room had a very stale odor, mold in the bathroom (my child had respiratory allergies), bathroom door handle broken. I returned the keys immediately & requested a full refund. The room was disgusting, I wouldn’t not stay there & certainly would not expose my children to such an unclean environment, one that could trigger a severe allergic reaction.

The motel needs a facelift, but I expected that at the price. It was the cleanliness that surprised me. The floor was wood grain linoleum. There were dust bunnies and other dirt in the corners behind the furniture, essentially anywhere a broom could not reach without moving things. The floor left brown dirt on the bottom of our feet, especially when we got out of the shower, almost muddy tracks. The breakfast was dry cereal/milk, coffee and Little Debbie honey buns. On a good note, the shower water was hot and plentiful and the coffee was good.

Bed made loud thumping noises every time you rolled over. Sounded like pounding on the floor and the guests below us complained that we were stomping when in fact it was the broken bed frame. Beds were lumpy and hard and flt pillows. No hot water when showering.

It was cheap so you gotta look at it from that stand point and i think for the money it was good. Staff was friendly and the room was clean and nice for the price. Only issue was water pressure in the shower was really low and water kept pooling under the sink but other than that no complaints

(I work night shift and needed to check in after work but other hotels would not accommodate even when I offered to pay for the day prior and already had the room reserved with intentions of paying for prior day so I could have somewhere to sleep after work.

I had came there to stay with my elderly mother for a weekend away. I did not know at booking that they had extended stay for workers. When my mother and I arrived Friday there were several standing outside drinking, as the night went on it became more and more. They were so loud it was unreal. As I went out side about 2 in the morning to as them to be a little quiet they told me they could not speak English. This went on from friday when we arrived to Sunday when we left. I had went to the office or called at least 5 times, apparently there is nothing they can do (as the lady at the front desk told me). There was so much beer the smell ranked in our room, the loud music and singing made for getting no rest. Unfortunately it would be my mothers last long trip, and they made it a living hell. I also asked to speak to the manager and left my number which he never called.
