The room was absolutely not clean. There were roaches, the fridge door was disgusting and the walls were stained and dusty. We had a back door to the balcony that wouldn’t even shut all the way which made us feel unsafe.

We rented a room and the smell wasn't great. The bed sheets had stains and there were hairs in between the sheets. We asked to switch rooms, the next room smell was worse sheets were cleaner but still some hair around the bed. I would not ever come back.

This place was an absolute dump. It was dirty and smelled like pee, cigarettes, weed, and cat litter. The overall vibe was “tropical crack den” and I will never try to save money by booking at an Econo Lodge again. Besides the people paying with change at the front counter and the man rolling a joint in the lobby, the towels weren’t clean and the outlets were covered in some sort of brown spatter. The slimy handprints on the headboard were the icing on a very rancid cake. Avoid.

The room was mostly clean, however the comforters on both beds had cigarette holes in them.. in the non smoking room. We also did have a roach in our room but it was only one. This was a clubbing night so we didn't stay here long. The shower did get very hot and was nice though.

Will not stay here again. The room was not clean, there was a dirty sock in the middle of the bathroom floor. Not in the best area either.
