Econo Lodge Inn & Suites Kearney South

Under construction

This was just sad. Cigarette butts and trash in the parking lot, torn up carpeting on the interior stairs, and lukewarm coffee in the morning. I will say that the bathroom was clean and the TV and iron worked. It could be a good property, but needs some love.

The lobby was nice and the clerk was attentive. The room has a half drunk diet Dr. Pepper on the bathroom sink which was still cold. The room was very run down. There was one bed in the room but the bed frame for the second bed was left in the room. The back to the desk chair was broken so if you leaned back you would fall to the floor. There was half eaten noodles in the sink. The refrigerator was spotless, cleaner than my fridge at home. Had to flush the toilet 2-3 times for it to fully work. The back stairs (my room was the last room on the second floor) were being worked on and the carpeting had been half fixed and was a terrible hazard.

Hotel is in bad need of work like painting, replacing a large window that apparently has been shot through and never been replaced. Locks do not always work, pillows should be tossed out (very uncomfotable and lumpy) I had a hard time finding a comfortable place to put my head. Mattress in need of replacing. TV not working right. Did call office and gentleman very helpful but he was unable to get it working right. We were able to watch Tv that night but unable to turn it off . Finally we just unplugged it. Young man was aplogizing for the condition of the tv and condition of the place.. Said the owners just don't want to put any money to improve things. Place was sonewhat clean. Needed better job of vacuuming. Furniture could use repairing. I will never stay in an Econolodge again.

Room and reception area were clean, but hallways and exterior of the property were dirty and the exterior had garbage all over it. Also, the 2nd and 3rd floors appeared to be long term stay units.

Property was a little dirty outside.

Floor was dirty around the bed. Parking lot has many potholes. Breakfast was good.

Breakfast is only pastries at this time. The shower is bananas, man, it's nice and the rooms are clean. Remodeling going on but doesn't affect my stay.

Mold and mildue due to the big wet spot caused by the ice machine that even reached our room.

You get what you pay for, it’s good for a stop and rest only. Lack of security throughout parking lot (no cameras, 2 of the main st lights in parking lot did not work). Had to get my room keys redone 2x for 1 overnight stay. If you are traveling with a trailer/camper/towing … call ahead cause they were almost filled to capacity in the parking area and had to park under non working lights. I know I am responsible for any damage and theft to my vehicle, but most hotels now have cameras on their property. Only seen some cameras in corridor’s. Of course my trailer was tampered with but nothing taken, bathroom dirty, towels and washcloths looked recently used and dingy but smelled clean. Once again, I got what I paid for.

Do not stay here, room smelled like an old dirty bar. Smelled like cigarettes, towels were super dirty.

No one was at the desk when checking in. Finally found a housekeeper vacuuming and they went and got someone. Finally got to our room and the floor had not been swept/cleaned. The coffee maker still had the coffee pod from the previous guest. The makeup remover package was completely dry when I opened it. The hotel and room smelled bad of cooking spices, bad enough it made my eyes burn. The mini muffins they had at the breakfast had to have been there awhile, very dry.

We arrived at the hotel late and tired the room appeared to be ok, it had a smell but nothing too bad, in the morning however we realized that the room had a roach infestation I tried to notify the front desk but nobody was there when I turned the key in. I wouldn’t recommend this place

Room was not properly cleaned. There was still trash in one of the garbage cans. Floor was not vacuumed. The clothing rack had one of the top anchors pulling out of the wall. We didn’t use it but noticed it was crooked and then noticed the anchor was pulling out. Kleenex was not restocked and room smelled a bit unpleasant until you got use to it. When you left the room for a little while you noticed the smell when you came back.

I rarely leave reviews, but I feel obligated to warn others: do not stay here under any circumstances. This place is infested with roaches and reeks of filth the moment you walk in. They don’t clean — they just sweep dirt and dust under the furniture to make it look passable at first glance. The entire room had a terrible odor. The linens were disgusting. I believe the sheets were never changed during my stay, and the towels were clearly reused — just refolded and hung back up, still dirty and stained. Everything from the bedding to the bathroom felt unsanitary and unhygienic. Worse, during my stay, several of my personal items went missing after I requested room service. When I brought this up and asked for a refund, the manager became hostile and aggressive, refusing to take any responsibility. It was clear they didn’t care about guests — only taking their money. The Wi-Fi, which I relied on for school, was essentially useless — constantly dropping or crawling at a snail’s pace. I couldn’t get anything done. This was hands-down the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had. It felt unsafe, unclean, and completely unprofessional. I left feeling like I needed a shower and a trip to the laundromat. I truly regret not spending a little more to stay somewhere halfway decent. Do yourself a favor and stay anywhere else. This place should honestly be shut down.

Mold and mildue due to the big wet spot caused by the ice machine that even reached our room.

Our original hotel room had many stains on the sheets and walls, food on the floor, sticky substances on the countertop, dead bugs, and dirt/grime throughout the room. When we switched to a second room, the condition was the same, except this time we also saw live bugs in the room which strongly resembled bed bugs. We did not end up staying the night and were able to get a refund for the room. The front desk worker was very helpful, but we noticed multiple other individuals coming up to him with the same issues as well. We strongly advise you not to book a stay with this hotel, under its current management.

BED BUGS Sketchy parking and buildings were not securable. DID NOT STAY. WANT MY MONEY BACK. SHUT THIS PLACE DOWN

Room was filthy and run down. Floor had not been vacuumed and was stained. Door, mirror and walls had splatters, floor, hair dryer and other surfaces had thick layer of dust, dresser was missing a drawer, bathroom sink needed caulked around edges, bathroom sink had leftover toothpaste. Pillows were stained and one was not fully covered by pillow case. Spider and spider webs in corners. The motel smelled strongly of cooking & spices. Should have just stayed in my car. This was absolutely gross.

Mold in room 107 around bath tub. Carpets were very dirty

The room overall was in clean and fairly modern condition. But, there was a single chair in the room, the light over the sink didn’t work, the tub had drainage issues, the coffee maker did not have all the components to make a cup of coffee and the remote for the tv would only switch channels. Had to turn the tv on or off at the tv. Same for adjusting the volume. But, the room was definitely affordable.

Wall sconces did not work. There didn’t seem to be any outlets to plug any of them in.

Good solid hotel. Air conditioning was a little loud. Overall it was what we expected.

Large room, but floors were "wood" so the rooms were really loud. The air conditioner sounded like there was something rattling around inside it with each cycle. Bed was OLD, and very soft. If you sat at the foot of the bed it totally collapsed under my 175 lb weight. Rust stains in the shower. Uncomfortable chairs.

Check in was difficult. Had to wait for them to figure out what room they would put us in with a dog. Room was minimal. Heater was NOISY. Breakfast was a 2 as well

Internet war very poor. Breakfast was very limited. Temperatures were not favorable. Plug-ins for devices in hotel was not adequate.

Sheet had a huge brown stain and when I turned down the sheet bed was filthy. There were 2 beds second bed the sheets were clean.There were two phones in room neither worked to call front desk. The TV did not work. We did get moved to another room, which only had a king bed and the mattress was sunk to the middle. not very good to sleep on. It was only for one night. Price of the room was decent.

Bed was shot. No TV. No internet

- the back entry door slammed all night - the sink drain was rusted and/or dirty - one bath towel - they have signs up telling you to not bring your breakfast to your room - the combo of paper-thin walls and barking dogs permitted no sleep - big room - comfy bed

Very large room and clean.

The motel was fine -- quite nice. My beef is with Expedia, which didn't forward the reservation through to the motel. Luckily I kept the receipt since I had prepaid in order to get hotel protection (lol), and the motel clerk was able to confirm the prepayment. Kudos to the motel, raspberries to Expedia.

When I arrived, the front desk staff was indisposed. The room I was given was already occupied and did not know til I entered. The room I was given was dirty, stunk of pickles had colored pictures on the back of the door and no housekeeping for the 3 days I was there. Not worth staying at again.

Pleasant and friendly staff. Clean room comfortable bed

Staff was great. Very comfortable. clean and private. Will use this again. Thanks!!

Professional friendly front desk manager. Clean room, good bed. Ease walk to good restaurants.

Staff was pleasant but took awhile to get checked in

Waited 20 min for someone to come to the desk to check us in

Beware! I booked through Expedia but the front desk staff ran my card for the $15 pet fee. The next day my debit card was inactive for fraudulent activity. On my bank statement, I had 5 separate charges for $15 and 2 separate charges for $30 from Econo Lodge which were processing. I called my bank saying I do not authorize these ourchases except for one $15 charge for the pet fee. When I called Econo Lodge and asked about the situation, the staff member was very dismissive and tried to get my off the phone. He said it was a mistake but quickly tried to get me off the phone. Very shady in my opinion even if it was a “mistake.” Anyways, my bank can’t do anything about these charges until they are all processed on the merchants end and I’m still waiting a week later for all of them to process.

Place was under some remodeling. The refrigerator wasn't plugged in..difficult to find the plug in so wasn't able to put our drinks in there . Plus it had an odor. When checking in. No one was at the front desk.. had to ring a door bell several times before someone came..

Bad customer service

Easy to find

It is a great place to stay. It is clean and comfortable. And easy to get to

Lots of access to restaurants, gas, and other conveniences. Very Clean!

It was not safe with strangepeople,our room backed up to an alley. it was not particularly clean..

Professional friendly front desk manager. Clean room, good bed. Ease walk to good restaurants.

easy to find. fast check in. friendly staff. quiet location.

I thought the property was dirty and unsafe for a single person

It was in a convenient location and easy access and the room was very spacious. No complaints.

Easy access to the interstate

Great price and great staff. Very convenient location especially for travelers.

The fruit offered for breakfast consisted of 3 tiny oranges with spots. The scrambled eggs were off-color. The microwave in the room had a locking feature that was frustrating. Staff did come and get it to work though. Physically everything was good enough. Got a good night's sleep but the breakfast was disappointing. The price was right.

Very nice motel. Clean and comfortable. Price was very good. Breakfast had a hot bar of food too.

The hotel in general was shabby, not cared for, dirty windows and doors, beds were soft and covers flimsy. I have never had an experience, where I couldn’t think of anything good to say. The meager breakfast had lukewarm coffee! The gal in reception said she’d take care of it. Our key cards didn’t work after breakfast, couldn’t find the gal. She was outside taking a break. No hot coffee materialized, needless to say.

This hotel offers breakfast, which was delightful. And it isn't a squidgy breakfast either - there were eggs, biscuits and gravy, waffles, milk, yougurt, cereals, etc. Saved us from going out for breakfast, which can be a major expense. My husband noted that this was the nicest looking budget hotel lobby we've seen!

We stayed with our dogs and family of 4. They gave us a large, 1st floor room that worked perfectly. The breakfast was very poor though. Not worth even trying anything they had. Staff was very helpful and friendly.

Not clean and breakfast was only a limited supply of small muffins. The manager was not available and did not respond when my bill needed to be revised. The charges were inaccurate.

It’s a good place to go; not the best in town but it’s good. The only comment that makes it a four instead of five is that the breakfasts are terrible and don’t forget to get up in the morning early enough because they close the breakfast area directly at 9 AM.

Not worth my time. Front desk staff rude, no CS skills. Breakfast cold (the stuff that should have been hot). No napkins,

The accessible room was weird. It was large and echoed due to not having carpet. The plumbing didn’t work and the toilet kept getting stopped up. The breakfast was pretty terrible. Biscuits and gravy but the gravy was just milk. On the plus side, the staff was nice. .

Breakfast is only pastries at this time. The shower is bananas, man, it's nice and the rooms are clean. Remodeling going on but doesn't affect my stay.
