I paid for 2 nights and checked out after the 1st night. Pros: -Staff was friendly. Cons: -Owner was sitting in the lobby with his shoes off like he was in his personal living room...gross. -Carpet in the hallway was filled with stains. -When I got to the room the door was already open. The lock to the room didn't work. After the owner looked at it, I was told to lift the door up to close and lock it. -Room smelled clean but actually wasn't. (See pics below) -Requested another room but was denied. -TV malfunctioned. Upon investigating, the guests from the room next door, their remote controlled their TV and my TV. -After checking out early, was told that my money for the rest of the stay could not be refunded.

U get what u pay for. Not bad for an economy rate hotel. Pros: Room, lobby and breakfast area were clean. Bed was comfortable. Cons: carpet in the hallways was disgusting. breakfast was toast, cereal and a waffle maker. Pool was empty. Stayed in El Paso because it was closest to the event we were there to attend. In the future we will drive the extra few miles to stay in a nicer hotel in Bloomington-Normal.

Lipstick on a pig that couldn't be sold at auction

The place is under new ownership and the remodel was very poorly done. Towel racks are coming out of the wall because they were not installed properly. Shower curtain rod is coming out of the wall because it was not installed properly. Toilet is not installed properly and has pieces of cardboard shoved in different places to attempt to level it. It still rocks. The faucet leaks. The shower spigot leaks. The shower doesn't drain properly. This place has potential. You can tell the new owner without proper skills attempted to DIY the repairs to attempt to save money. Sad!

El Paso Econo Lodge

The check-in and out process was simple and efficient. The carpet in the hallway was filthy. One of the lights on the bedside table flickered when I tried to turn it on. There were pieces of folded cardboard supporting the toilet. The shower/tub creaked as I stood in it. The bedspread and sheets were stained and did not smell fresh. People in the hallway slamming doors at 2:30 and 3:30 a.m. and talking. Breakfast appeared to be good, but I had planned to eat elsewhere with friends. Did not use coffee maker. TV worked fine. AC worked fine. I used iron and hair dryer, both fine. Fridge worked fine. Newer chair and ottoman. I'm so sorry to be critical, but I don't know how else to alert the company to needed improvements.
