The room was absolutely filthy. Bathroom had no lights, big dirty stain on the sink, hole in the bedsheet, dirty floors and walls. We requested another room, and the only improvement was that there was lights in the bathroom. I highly do not recommend, the staff at the front desk was nice and accommodating with reassigning us to another room but unfortunately the hotel itself is totally neglected.

There was supposed to be a coffee maker in room-there was not. There were no garbage cans as well. This hotel was disgusting. Worn out mattress, large holes in the bed cover, busted ac/heat unit & a mini fridge that didnt hold temp. The smell in the entire establishment was musty. When walking out of the room this morning, the smell of marijuana was disturbing as well. Will never use Econo Lodge or Expedia again.
