I had a terrible experience at Econo Lodge Panama City on June 3rd. From the moment I arrived, the front desk staff was extremely rude. I was given a smoking room even though I had reserved a non-smoking room. When I asked for a change, they responded with a bad attitude. The second room smelled strongly of chemicals and the AC didn’t work. When I asked to check out because of these issues, the staff refused and told me to come back on Friday. I was also denied written confirmation that I had left. I ended up not staying at the hotel and had nowhere to sleep that night. What’s worse is that my family had stayed here before and recommended the hotel, but my experience was completely different and disappointing. Despite reaching out through Expedia multiple times, the hotel has refused a refund, even though I didn’t stay. Extremely unprofessional service. I do not recommend this hotel and would never stay here again.

Don't Trust Your Booking be what you chose!

I booked a NON smoking room but when we got there it was a smoking room! My confirmation said nonsmoking but the motel's reservations said smoking room. They said it Was Hotels.com's fault..since we were evacuating from a hurricane, we really didn't have much choice but to stay. So NO, I'm not very happy with the stay! Besides everything being yellow and sticky and smelling like smoke...there were ants,broken fixtures,light switches and floor tiles.

The room was reasonably priced and clean. Very loud and disruptive being along the highway and apparently on the path of the Air Force Base. Loud jets continued all day and well into the night. Staff was amazing tho cleaning room and fresh linens daily. The last night of my stay the power went out and I was able to get a full refund on t for the last night.

It was a decent stay but I got accused of stealing pillows when I know for a fact there was only four pillows in the room! I didn’t get my deposit back when we made sure the room was spotless the only thing was the pillows! Overall though it was a pretty okay stay. They do need to fix the cracks in the bottom of the door, we could hear everyone’s conversation walking by our room!
