Econo Lodge Scottsbluff

My family and I spent two days here while vacationing in Nebraska. It was overpriced for a horrible place. The bathtub wouldn’t drain, and the TV didn’t work. We booked two rooms, one for the adults and one for the kids, and were charged extra for checking in early even though the place looked empty. We’ll never stay here again.

The breakfast was just waffles, coffee, and cereal, which was perfect for me. The room had some problems, though: the TV cables were a mess and out, a light or smoke detector was missing, and the bathroom floor creaked wherever I walked. Still, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend the place to anyone visiting.

The pool had no lights or towels, and there was nobody at the front desk to help us get towels. The chlorine smell was overwhelming, and the towels were dingy. Our room looked nothing like the online pictures. The TV wouldn’t play for more than two seconds at a time. The front desk lady blamed the weather, even though there were no bad weather conditions, and said she couldn’t do anything about it. Breakfast was sparse, just cereal or toast, with gross coffee.

It’s a basic hotel, but the room was clean, and the fridge was a good size. There was a microwave too. No coffee maker in the room or lobby. Breakfast meant a waffle maker, ingredients for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and two cereals, all from the local Walmart. That may matter to you. The view was an abandoned lot behind the hotel. Late Saturday night, a bunch of young people were talking loudly and partying in the back lot. The person on staff then seemed maybe 18 and didn’t say anything to them. Still, the clean room worked for us.
