Econo Lodge Monticello

My husband & I had a late check-in (nearly 11 pm). During check-in, I was informed that our room was on the 2nd floor and I asked if we could be moved to the 1st floor (noticed only 4-5 vehicles in parking lot) because my husband is handicapped. I was that a change could not be made. Understandable, because I know that my request should have been made when I made our reservation, my fault. The 2nd floor room had been cleaned, but was not clean. The carpet and chairs were laden with stains and one of the chairs had a rip down the middle. Also, you had to flush the toilet 5-6 times to get the tissue to go down. However, during breakfast (such as it was) in the morning, I made the same request to the morning clerk and within 10 minutes, I was moving to a room on the 1st floor. This room was not the best, but it was a step up from the 1st room. Although, the night clerk was pleasant, she did not even attempt to check for available rooms on the 1st floor (there were several empty rooms; curtains were open). I believe that she was just trying to hurry & leave at the end of her shift. No going above & beyond. Thank you, morning clerk!

This was a no-frills motel. Nothing great, nothing wrong. They don't have an elevator, so be sure to ask for a main floor room if you struggle with stairs.

As soon as I walked in at check in. The lady was super sweet. Friendly. Very helpful with my name change

Ok location Dirty stained carpet

Location

Sheets, towels, and floor were dirty. Layer if dust sitting on everything like room hadn't been used or cleaned for a while

Very spacious room and it was semi-clean. Some crumbs and stuff on the floor, but the rest of the room was good. Check-in was fast.

This motel is in the middle of NO-WHERE. There is a gas station and a subway sandwich shop very near by, but that is it!! You have to get back on I-10 and go 8-9 miles before you see and exit with 3-4 choices for dinner (and they are mostly fast food). If you don't mind getting back in your car and traveling 9 or more miles each way to find a decent place for dinner, than this place was just OK. Would not pick this hotel again though.

This property was very run down. Bath tub was rusted and chipped. chipped paint on walls. Walls very thin could hear neighbor snoring. Breakfast looked like picked up at gas station. Not up to what I expected from an Expedia property recommendation.

The rooms need a lot of maintenance: drapes are totally damaged, bathroom with mold, carpet need cleaning. Breakfast was very poor and we had to wait a lot for it.
