Econo Lodge Kennewick Tri-Cities

Lots of stores and restaurants nearby, staff efficient and courteous

The location was good and there was a lot to do around it.

It wasn’t very cozy also not very clean and the blankets had burn marks all over them.

Super ghetto nasty smelly room with a bunch of tweakers hanging out around outside all night

I stayed at the same motel 35+ years ago when they had a restaurant. The rugs have been removed and replaced with vinyl that is lifting up. Other than that, I doubt anything has been done to the place. There were places patched with plaster, areas that needed to be plastered, the vinyl flooring was cracked and pealing up in several areas. On a positive note, the sheets were clean as was the bathroom. I cannot believe I was charged a pet fee for such a room. The young lady at the front desk was very efficient and unruffled with handling a large group who had a large number of rooms reserved with several people waiting to check in. She was excellent!

The room did not have a smoke detector and the bathroom sink did not drain. The guest above was entertaining guests all night.

The room needed maintenance with holes, scrapes etc on walls and floor.

It was affordable, and the staff was friendly. That said, my room literally had floorboards in the main walking path between the bed and bathroom that were held down by visible screws and duct tape. I suspect it’s also where flies were coming from (not many - just about two of them that I noticed - but still…). Otherwise I can’t complain. Location was pretty good too
