What guests think

At Econo Lodge, travelers report a budget-friendly stay with consistently friendly front-desk service and a generally satisfying free breakfast, while experiences vary widely in room condition, cleanliness, and maintenance depending on building and location of the room.

Facilities feel dated; multiple guests cite an out of service pool, worn or inconvenient exterior stairs and walkways, and the lack of an elevator. The location is convenient to highways and Bates College, though the surrounding area is industrial and some guests reported late-night noise or activity that felt unsafe. Expect an affordable, no-frills stay with widely mixed room quality.

Good that there was a D&D and a large convenience right there. Would be nice if there had been a stairway on bothsides in the back to the 2nd floor. The walkway on 2nd floor was extremely unlevel which could be dangerous if not careful. Otherwise the room itself was fine and equiped well.

The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and the water pressure in the shower was good. The property is aging and the pool seems to be closed forever.

Staff was good. Room was in a very inconvenient place. Had to walk up stairs Dow the side of the building and around then to the end of the building to get to the room. No other way to get to the room. I feel it is definitely a fire hazard with this being the only way to/from. the room size was normal. One bed was good, the other was beyond springy, very bouncy. Bathroom was a bit dingy.

Bathroom was terrible. Floor in terrible condition. Pool was advertised as an amenity’s, which is why we chose this hotel. When we checked i. There was a sign on the counter that the pool is temporarily out of service. When looking at the pool has not even been opened for the year and we are now in July unfortunately, we were not able to use it therefore. We would have gone to another hotel that had an as advertised amenity that could be used while we were staying there.

Vinyl flooring falling apart with pieces of plastic peeling off. Sink area fairly clean but one soap and a squeeze bottle of shampoo was empty in shower. GROSS! NO ONE EVER AT DESK!

The room was infested with roaches! I ended up cutting my stay short and moving to a different hotel. The continental breakfast was nice, and the front desk staff was pleasant. I would have enjoyed the stay if it wasn’t for the infestation in my room (they were in the shower, coming from the sink drain, on my nightstand, and on the window sill).

Stopped late at night while on a long road trip. Beds were clean but the bathroom was not acceptable for our expectations. Multiple clumps of hair (not ours) and just general run down conditions in the tub area with a build up of scum and hair. We chose not to use the tub/shower as it just felt too unclean. We will not be staying here again.

The room was in disgusting condition. It stunk of cigarette smoke, there was food on the floor, and rodent feces. The staff was rude and not accommodating in any way. They were unwilling to switch us to a new room although others were available. The room was noisy all night (loud horns at all hours of the night).

We arrived to check in and had to leave immediately without checking the room, due to working an event in Lewiston. We got to our room at Midnight. The blankets smelled like body odor, the bathroom had dirty handprints in the shower, ceiling and doorframe in the bathroom, the floor was not swept in the bathroom. I cleaned the tub myself with the bar of soap provided and a wash cloth and most of the prints came off. The tip envelope left on the desk was the insult to injury. Is there a quality check in place for cleaning? There needs to be if there isn’t… and if there is, it isn’t being done. Most expensive hotel I’ve ever paid for and it was by far the nastiest. Listen to the bad reviews on this one.

Another Solid Stay (But Request a Higher Floor!) This was our second time staying at here for a three-day family trip with my husband and kids, and overall, it remains a safe and comfortable choice for the area. Room Experience: Comparing Stays Our biggest difference between this visit and our first was the room location. Our first-floor room this time was noticeably noisier—not terrible, but certainly a step down from the absolutely silent experience we had on the second floor during our last stay. If tranquility is a priority, I highly recommend asking for a room on a higher floor. The room itself was smaller than our previous one, but still comfortable and well-appointed for our family. The beds are comfortable, though I found the mattress to be on the softer side. Food and Amenities We found the food to be decent and satisfying, but the offerings were exactly the same each day. For a four-day stay, a little variety would have been appreciated. That being said, the hotel is well-maintained and we always felt safe on the property. Overall: A great, safe hotel, but for the best experience, try to secure a room on the second floor or higher to avoid potential noise. We would likely stay here again!

My sister had booked the econo lodge and I had booked the quality inn side. She found us 2 great rooms together. She was just sweet. Easy access. Breakfast was better than most motels of this level. Never ran out of food even though they were booked full. Quiet on a weekend. Cons: motel side bathroom out of date. Water pressure ran hot then cold. Sink and tub drains were so slow, the tub filled up taking a shower. No convenience items like shampoo or lotion. Really good value for the price.

Checking in at the office made me feel like it was going to be ok, this was a last minute booking (all I could get for the night). Office was clean, organized and desk clerk was polite and very nice. We were placed at the back of the hotel. Where there was 4-5 people hanging out in their cars for hours, kids playing in the parking lot and kinda sketchy folks hanging by the garbage area. Just crossed our fingers the rental car would still be there when we woke up. The room- first glance the room looked tidy. Upon a closer look there were strange streaks down the walls- as if something was splashed on the wall and dried. My socks were clean until worn in the room on carpet. We slept on top of the blanket’s Bathroom door didn’t close-no privacy. And my last thing is the desk staff could have warned us about the wildlife at night. In the woods right at the edge of the parking lot there were mating Tree frogs. Once we figured it out it made sense but it was so loud you could hear it through your closed door. We really didn’t sleep at the Econo Lodge.

This place is not what it was two to three years ago. Pretty sure there are permanent residents there now. There's ALWAYS people outside doing drugs and the smell of pot constantly coming in the room. We were asked multiple times by the people "living" down stairs if we were going to the store. Keep your family away. Did not feel safe for the kids.
