Econo Lodge Toledo

It’s set back from the road, so it’s mostly quiet, and if all you need is a cheap place to sleep, this might do. Don’t expect luxury. On our first day, cops were arresting a young man. Everything in the rooms looked like it came from the '70s or '80s. A lamp was broken, the bed only fit one adult, and the floors, bathroom, and furniture were dirty or stained. There were holes in the walls, the sink leaked across the floor, and there was weed in the drawer. We brought our own bathing supplies because the motel’s were stained and dirty. My husband and I stay at hotels and motels often, and this isn’t it. I wouldn’t come back.

It’s the cheapest place in the area, but you get what you pay for. The pool has been closed for over a year, the Wi-Fi doesn’t work, and the rooms smell like they’ve all been smoked in. They’re outdated and haven’t had proper maintenance in years. The amenities shown on the website aren’t there, and don’t expect support or empathy if something goes wrong.

For the price, you get a clean, comfortable stay with friendly people, without paying what other chain hotels charge. The value is exceptional, and I’ll definitely come back.

The sheets and towels were clean, the beds were made, and there were no bugs. The towels didn’t match and looked like 1970s Howard Johnson towels, but at least they were clean. The bathroom was another story. There were two large bars of soap and several small ones in the toilet, which wouldn’t flush even after we tried several times. The shower didn’t look clean either. My wife had cleaning supplies in the car and scrubbed the whole bathroom before we went to bed at 9 p.m. We had to be up at 4 a.m. for a charity event, which is why we were there. The hotel had been chosen for us, mostly based on price and a phone conversation. If I could give a negative rating, I would. Don’t stay here, whatever the nearby hotels cost or how they’re rated.
