Upon pulling up to the front door it was very hot, the door was locked, the front desk attendant was rude. I checked in and the property was run down… pool was not in use, room did not look secure. My expectations were not high because of the price but I did not expect what I saw…I will never return.

I'd stopped in Macon, GA to see a friend on my way home from our family vacation in Freeport, Fl. I was too tired to continue traveling so I decided to get a hotel room for my 9 year old daughter and I. I was only asleep for less than 1 hour, when I woke up to roaches crawling on me. I found bedbugs as well.

It looked like somebody had pooped on the stairs in the morning. The hotel advertised a breakfast from 6 to 9 AM. I went down there at 6:15 the door was locked and had to give the manager my room number and name which was understandable. The breakfast area had one tiny muffin and a large clear plastic case. There was a waffle iron heating up. There were four clear cereal dispensary containers two of them were completely empty. One of them had maybe two more bowls of fruit loops, and the other may have had a bowl or two left off some other chocolate sugary cereal. That was the breakfast.

The room was filthy. Fingerprints on the mirror, dirt on the floor, hair on the towels. Baseboards in bathroom were rotted, missing in room. Toilet paper roll was almost empty with no spare. Bathroom tiles were moldy. The great breakfast consisted of half of the cereals being gone and 3 muffins. My husband said the orange juice had the worst flavor. Our room was non smoking but all you smelled when walking in was cigarette smoke, to the point we woke up feeling nasty from it. Friendly staff but hotel was the worst.

Don't let pictures on the website for you. This econo Lodge was the dirtiest and most uncomfortable motel I've ever stayed in. Website says premium bedding and pillow top premium mattresses. Mattresses were uncomfortable and squeaked every time you turned on them. If that was premium linens I would hate to see what's not premium toilet run all night bathroom floor stays wet day and night. Renters beware you're not getting what they show you on the internet I promise. I do a lot of trips per year and this was by far the worst I've ever stayed at

This motel is old with some damage to the floorboards, but it is clean. The bed was comfortable. It is conveniently located, right off the interstate. The breakfast was minimal, and we had to wait while coffee was made. The older man at the desk in the morning was not friendly, but the woman housekeeper was gracious.

Old, dirty and run down. The night attended just didn't want to be bothered by checking us in. Gave us only one key and said thats all you get. If we didn't have our own door locking system i would not have stayed. We're on the road and want nothing frilly just to sleep but do expect it to be clean

No toilet paper in the room, continental breakfast is a joke, was there a little after 8 and the frumpy heavyset old man behind the desk was rude and too lazy or cheap to even make anymore coffee. There was 3 other people in there and the man said oh large crowd, that's all there is. He tried to refuse me a reciept until my boyfirend and his friend came in the office. Then proceeds to tell us that Americans have no brains and he is here to make money off of us and send back to India then threatened to take my phone when i made him aware I started to record our interaction. The night front desk lady was super nice as was the housekeeping, they gave us the toilet tissue and stated the man should have done his job. For this being a choice hotel, its embarrassing.

This place was filled head to town with cockroaches!!! I killed over 10 within an hour!!! Then a bed bug nearly as big as a penny sent us over the edge. We left leaving my 2 daughter's pillows (which brought them both comfort during our trip) the manager Neel Thakker would not refund our money because we didn't check out during the allowed 10 minutes in which u had to review ur room and have a refund!! Nevermind the fact that after checking in it took us nearly 20 minutes just to enter our room because none of the key cards worked
