Econo Lodge McAlester

Nothing

Everything

Breakfast was ok. The staff was great. Safe location, restaurants near by.

Commode (Toilet) needs to be upgraded.

The hotel was overpriced-I think because of the eclipse-I think they raised the price for that reason. I could hear everything happening in the office next door, the room next to mine and the room above mine. It was louder than normal hotel noises. I picked this hot for the free breakfast.(and there were very few rooms left and I didn't have a choice of dates.) I didn't expect much. They had a waffle machine, 3 or 4 cereals, bread, and some individually packaged pastries. I only wanted cereal so I got my bowl and went to get milk, but there was none. The desk clerk had stepped away (and no one was available to ask) so I grabbed my coffee and dry cereal to eat in my room. He must have come out because I got almost to my door and he chased me down to tell me there was no carry out. He said I HAD to eat in their "dining area". I explained that there wasn't even milk available so I was just going to eat in my room and he said I could not. (There was a table with chairs, a mini fridge and a microwave in the room. It wasn't about food in the room.) I was so flustered that I handed him the bowl and said that I just wouldn't eat. He tried to reiterate the rules and the selections but I just said I wasn't going to eat and I no longer wanted the cereal. The whole situation was ridiculous. I was not bringing extra food or trying to feed an extra person, I just didn't want to sit in a room with 4 or 5 tables, alone, eating dry cereal. The whole situation was bizarre.

It was clean. Easy in and out. Great shower.

Not going to stay here again.

This hotel has not been updated for 50 years. That should tell you everything you need to know.

Hotels.com said breakfast was from 6-8 with eggs, sausage, bacon, waffles, cereal etc. there were no eggs or meat of any kind ands breakfast was from 7-9. Phone did not work in our room. Shower was luke warm.

Comfortable bed and pillows. Room heater kept room toasty. Bathroom was just ok: toilet was old style and extremely low, door didn't close and latch. Generally room was clean, but tired and dated. Breakfast was crappy. Waffle with sugary syrup and margarine, cold cereal/milk, sugary muffins and sugar glazed rolls, and watery orange juice (probably TANG). No hot cereal, no yogurt, no fruit, no eggs, no meat. The coffee was excellent, though.

Locks to door was messed up , large gap in the door showing light through the crack-could probably see from outside into the room . Tv remote wasn't functional. Very loud due to highway traffic . For a last minute stay it served the prupose for a place to sleep but wouldn't recommended or plan to stay again.
