Econo Lodge Live Oak

The location worked well, and the staff were friendly. The room was clean enough, and the front desk was okay, but the furniture was worn and the room could use an update. Fine for a short, low-cost stay if being in the right spot matters most.

The staff were very rude, and I didn't even check in. I went across the street instead and found a great room. I'd rate this below one star if I could.

We didn't have much choice, even though I already knew I didn't want to stay here. The first room had roaches in the bathroom, and more came running out when I opened the microwave. It was supposed to be non-smoking, but smelled strongly of cigarettes. They moved us, and the next room had basically the same problems. They were rude when we raised it, and because we booked through Travelocity, getting a refund has been difficult. This place was disgusting. Don't stay here.

The bed was comfortable, and the night clerk was really nice. I needed a room during a late drive on February 16th, and this place was close to the interstate and under $100. The front desk woman was super friendly, and the property was fairly clean and well lit. I was in a back corner on the second floor. There was a bit of trash on the walkway, still there in the morning, and later I saw bagged garbage in a shopping cart by my car. Maybe someone got distracted, I hope. The room was decent, though not great. Sheets were clean but thin, with burn holes, and the TV didn't work. There was one dead roach on the floor, which didn't freak me out, but still. The bathtub faucet was streaming water and had rust and water stains, so it had clearly been leaking for a while, even though I could tell the room had been cleaned. Breakfast wasn't appetizing, which wasn't a big deal, but the coffee was gross, and that matters to me. The final price was a little under $95. That's less than other hotels nearby, but I think it should've been around $65, or $75 at most with taxes and fees.
