Econo Lodge Petersburg - Fort Lee

This place was horrible. The bathroom was digusting. The tub needed replacement and the flooring in the bathroom was coming up. There was no place to set your luggage. The sign for breakfast read 6a to 9a, but when i went up there, i was told it was at 7am. Went back, still nothing. You should remove this location from your listings.

Nothing

Ten minutes after checking into the hotel.We heard shots fired from inside the hotel. Did not really get a full opportunity to check the room out. Because we were told by the police that we needed to go find someplace else to stay that this wasn't a safe place tomorrow.

Overall, the entire place was dirty. I got there after dark, thank goodness. I was on the second floor & the so called solid metal steps to the 2nd floor has big rust holes and stairs wiggled as I went up, did not feel 100% secure/safe. I got a room key for an already in-use room. Had to go back to office, clerk was very sorry. The interior door safety chain was connected to the wall, but no place to latch it to the door. Other than that, the room/hotel was OK. Only had coffee in the AM. I do not drink coffee. Was NOT worth the $70+ I spent.

There is nothing about that place that I like

Clean the rooms

This property is an absolute dump, rat hole, rat’s nest, for lack of a better term. I wish I could upload pictures. There were roaches and bed bugs!!!! I was scared to touch anything and forget about getting in the shower! I tried to sleep but could not because I was itching from the bed bugs. I snoozed for a minute and woke up because I thought someone was in my room but it turned out someone was talking outside and the paper thin walls made it would like they were in the room. Mildew smell, walls were warped from water damage, sloppy caulking and maintenance. I left in the morning and booked another hotel. TRUST ME AND DO NOT BOOK THIS CRAP BOX OF A HOTEL. IT NEEDS TO BE CONDEMNED. SHAME ON ECONOLODGE FOR MISPRESENTING THE HOTEL. THEY SHOULD SHOW REAL PICTURES WITH THE BUSTED ROOM, ROACHES AND BUGS. BEWARE!!!!!

Dirty and outdated. Guests aren’t permitted in the lobby.

No breakfast

Cleanliness of wash cloth and towels; need new ones. They had stains on them and bed comforters had holes in them from people smoking and I ask for non smoking rooms.
