What guests think

Reviews of Econo Lodge Russellville describe a budget stay with notably friendly staff and some clean, quiet rooms, but inconsistent upkeep, occasional pests, and facility shortfalls like a closed pool and broken ice machines appear in several accounts.

Room experiences vary, with some modern touches but recurring maintenance issues such as ill fitting doors, squeaky metal frames, and inconsistent shower temperatures. Several guests found the area quiet and convenient, with easy, well lit parking. Multiple reviews also report that breakfast was not provided as expected. Expect a simple stopover with uneven quality depending on the room.

The front desk workers were very kind and helpful. Our room was non-smoking but smelled like smoke trying to be covered up with something. The room was clean overall except for some stains on the sheets that looked dirty. They were light but it was definitely a little off putting. The pool was completely closed down but I believe they are in the process of remodeling possibly.

No ice, pool not working, no continental breakfast. Hotel in a state of disrepair. I felt I should be owed a healthy discount on yhe price of my stay.

Good value for the money. Recent repairs/upgrades were evident. It was an older facility that had been nicely refurbished. The staff were very friendly and accomodating.

1.) They are NOT pet friendly as listed on hotel.com. I had to pay $100 cash to the front desk to get room and it just went in his pocket. 2.) Stairs were narrow and steep 3.) Door to room had been kicked in and only had the keycard lock. No deadbolt etc. 4.) Curtain had a raw hem and was nasty and stained. 5.) Non-smoking room was covered in burn marks and came with an ashtray. 6.) Walls had holes and were stained. 7.) Outlets were loose and looked dangerous. 8.) Food left in fridge and microwave. 9.) Two half rolls of toilet paper. 10.) Shower had been painted and was peeling. 11.) One threadbare towel. 12.) Bedspread had holes and stains. I was too scared to look under it. 13.) Old pool halfway filled in with no barriers around the construction. In the end I cannot NOT recommend this place anymore strongly! I’m surprised it’s still open considering I’m sure they have to pass some sort of inspection every now and then. Maybe my $100 cash went towards paying someone off?

The beds were pretty okay. Slept well in them. The floors were kind of dirty when I came in and the room smelled like weed. The walls were stained with cigarette smoke and the bathroom door got stuck when you tried to open it. The bathroom towels also had some random yellow stains on them. TV remote was sticky and the microwave smelled weird. Overall, the cleanliness and even hospitality was not wonderful.

Room floor was dirty, the bottoms of our feet were black after walking barefoot in the room. The entry door did not seal to opening: We had to have room key programed several times (every day): bed frames were sheet metal that made snapping noises: poorly done upgrades to bathroom and sink area: TV remote kind of worked if buttons pushed enough We will not be returning to this location ever.

Noisy, metal bed frame that I kicked every time I approached the bed. Iffy water temp - vacillated between ice cold and scalding. Comfortable bed but not enough pillows. Ok for price.
