Econo Lodge Birmingham - Hoover

Room smelled like smoke and dog barking in adjacent room most of the night and morning. Dirty and run down looking.

The bathroom was not cleaned properly and smelled like a fresh poop. The floor was not vacuumed and the entire room had a cigarette smell.

I checked in late due to travel delays and I was met by 2 employees that seemed hesitant about letting me into the locked front door. This after giving them my license and credit card info through a window. After finally gaining access to the front lobby, I had to explain to them and show my Orbitz reservation on my phone. I then preceeded to wait 45 minutes because said employees weren't familiar with the Orbitz travel site. Upon finally getting my assigned room, I went to turn on the a/c when i saw dozens of ants in the room. I attempted to mentally block what i saw before coming to my senses and finding a room elswhere. Lesson learned. Next time, I'll pay extra for the comfort of a more reputable brand.

Nothing in this property to like

Nothing like the pictures, pictures show updated rooms, lobby etc. This was a sad excuse of a motel. Very sketchy area, was laughed at by the employees when I asked if they had inside rooms like the pictures showed. And room was disgusting, run down and shower head was coming out of the wall.

The lady that checked us in was very efficient, dressed nicely, big smile on her face and very helpful I will certainly come back here

Too much outside sound

I didn’t get much sleep. It seemed like everytime I feel asleep someone was by my door slamming there car door and waking me up

I was in the area for military duty. Last minute booking. One of the filthiest places I’ve ever stayed. Cigarette burns on the sheets and on the bathroom countertops. Sheets clearly hadn’t been washed. Bathroom smelled like an outhouse. Nothing redeemable about this place. It has a roof, so it’s not outside at least.

no frills hotel, and you get what you pay for. pros: comfortable bed and enormous bathtub. great for soaking if that's what you like. bar and wing joint attached to the building. cons: no security lock on the door. towels are about a hundred years old--very thin, and while they may have started out white, they are a little on the gray side now. Lights are very dim. I had to turn on every light in the room to be able to read. All in all an okay place if you're on a tight budget, but if you can spend a few extra bucks, go someplace else.
