Air conditioner was not turned on when we arrived. And, there were no anti slip mats in the tub/shower I which made tub very slippery and only one small bar of soap for two adults. Also, no vending machines for snacks.

I stayed at Econo Lodge East Ridge recently and found the overall experience to be below average. The hotel is basic, which is expected at this price range, but the cleanliness needs serious improvement. The bathroom and sink area were not properly cleaned. There were shaving hairs left in the sink from a previous guest, and the soap holder was dirty. The bathroom door was also noticeably stained, which gave an unpleasant impression. Another issue was the air conditioner – it was very loud, making it difficult to sleep peacefully during the night. That being said, Mr. Kevin at the front desk was extremely helpful and kind during check-in. His professionalism was the highlight of my stay. Unfortunately, due to the cleanliness and noise issues, I wouldn’t choose to stay here again.

Everything was great but.... We called to ask if we could check in late. They said that was fine. Checked in at 1130pm after a long day driving. Got to the room and it was easily over 100 degrees. The AC was not on, not even the fan. It took hours to finally cool down enough to sleep, but has to be up at 6am to travel, so didn't sleep much.
