very clean rooms. only has one chair. no other place to sit but the bed. nice people to check in, but no one to check out with so we could tell them the toilet leaks and runs all night long. Looks like they are fixing the place up so hopefully they fix them for the next person.

I stay here often. It's about the best hotel in Taylorville IL. The property is old, and the rooms are dated, but, the owners keept things very clean and smelling nice. Comfortable bed, bathroom is functional, coffee maker, refridgerator, wifi and cable tv all worked well.

We have stayed at the Economy Inn a few times and always book the same room. Unfortunately, during this stay the room was not available due to a maintenance issue. The room we stayed in was a much bigger room, three double beds, which was fine, but it could use a little maintenance itself. The carpet was very stained and dirty and turned the bottom of our socks black. The microwave did not work and the shower head was in need of replacement. The bathroom was clean and the heat worked great and offered a nice warm room for our stay. Overall I give it three stars.

We heeded a place to lay our heads along a specific route adhering to a tight schedule with a later-than-usual arrival time and departure before dawn. Many might have overlooked the Economy Inn, but the reviews were really good, so I took a chance and booked it. Arriving around 9:45 p.m., we checked in and immediately upon entering our room, my wife gave the room her “once-over”. Her response was, “It’s clean”. The room was very adequately furnished and suited our needs for a few hours of sleep. When we need the same thing in that neck of the woods again, we already know where we’ll stay compared to higher priced lodging.

It’s a decent place to stay. Been there several times visiting family. It’s older but does the job. However this last trip the mattresses were very hard and uncomfortable. Other rooms there have much better mattresses. I know they are updating. Maybe they will get new mattresses for that room
