Econo Lodge Brattleboro South

There was mold holes in wall burn holes in bedding

Never email me back

I am 80 yrs old, travelling by myself. This did not look like the picture or any other Econ chain. The neighborhood was questionable, the lobby dirty. I immediately said I wanted to cancel my reservation. I was told to do it through the Hotels.com app. I had to download it, had difficulty and was unable to cancel by 6 pm. I did cancel atb6:08. I want a full refund. This business should be razed.

Worst ever. We stayed there maybe a half hour. The room smelt like smoke. The fan in the bathroom was all mold. We had a hand towel that’s it not other towels and the soap was dirty. A cockroach ran across the floor. Was told that was the only room left haha yea right. You’re not full trust me. Then the pool area had a lot of trip hazards. There was a mattress leaning against the wall, box’s everywhere , their personal clothes hung up, about 8 bikes just laying there. I can for sure see why the guy at the desk didn’t hesitate to give us our full refund. He must get this all the time. My advise to you all……. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!!!

Nothing bad about inside the room (108) -- but it was next to the hallway to the stairs to the second floor, so heard occasional foot-stomps during the evening. No other noises, though. Spatious double sinks, very unusual. Huge, firm bed. The manager has quite the beautiful flowers and vegetables garden as landscaping, including some exotic trees. Obviously this will vary by season, but Coreopsis verticillata (yellow/orange/red) was in full glory, with Cosmos coming on, among other things. Also look for curry-leaf tree (Murraya koenigii).

Hotel in general needs quite a bit of work. Walls in the room were scuffed, and paint was peeling. Grout for the tub was dirty and possible moldy. Faucet for the sink was loose, and the water lines held together with zip ties. Yes, it was inexpensive but pay a bit more for a better place. Advertised as having breakfast but they discontinued that to keep costs down.

The room smelled horrible- had to buy plug ins just to not choke. I should’ve realised this when I decided to stay in this area. There were lots of sketch people who I thinked may have lived there…

Probably the worst stay of my life. The chair looked like it’s old, dirty and torn, paint chipped off the walls everywhere, our deadbolt was kicked in and was now a screw we turned. Blood appeared in the back stair. Whatever carpenter they hired to do any trim work should be fired. Sink drains were those weird plastic accordion drains, something out of an rv, no cabinet or anything to hide it and it didn’t drain. Every piece of furniture was broken. The privacy from us and the other people staying was this nasty blue see through curtain with stains on it. Plus our room wasn’t cleaned out. I would never stay at an Econo lodge for as long as I live. For some reason this is my second time at one of these and I promise you, there won’t be a third.

The good: convenient to grocery store next door. Linens were clean. The bad: room was dirty, had roaches, our feet were quickly filthy just from walking in the carpet, old liquid splashed on the walls and never cleaned. No housekeeping over three day stay.

The place is falling apart. The front desk was often unattended. No breakfast as promised
