Econo Lodge Tallahassee I-10 near University

Convenience

Well, there was a definitely lots of security in that parking lot from policeman across the street at the market. They had security guards with weapons. Everybody wanted a $10 cover charge just to walk in and get a drink. But that was the surroundings. Overall, the hotel was fine. The room was fine and the housekeeper was very courteous and nice to talk to.

Love it there

Die Zimmer sind praktisch eingerichtet. Ein grosses Bett ist vorhanden.

The property mainly houses transients, so the exorbitant rate we were charged was targeted directly at FSU parents in Tallahassee for graduation. The open tables in the dirt area next to the stairs were consistently populated by homeless people who would yell obsenities at us as we came and went. The 'included breakfast' did have a coffee pot, but the pre-packaged pastries rack was always empty, even at 7:00am, with the response that prior guests had already taken the provided 'breakfast'. There were no coffee facilities in the rooms and the microwaves did not work, Our rooms were moldy with sagging ceilings, and the constant yelling from the homeless outside our door prevented any restful sleep. We were afraid to leave our car in the parking lot, so we parked in the shopping center across the street and walked in. There were two arrests at the hotel in the short time we were there. DO NOT STAY IN THIS ESTABLISHMENT. It was disgusting and terrifying.

Need painting outside, Concrete stairs need pressure cleaning as well as the side walks. Floors inside room needs to be sweep and moped, has bugs on floor. Could use new furniture to update the looks of the room. Not enough light to put on make-up properly. I always travel with my own lighting system for make up, but should not be necessary.
