Econo Lodge El Paso, IL

I paid for 2 nights and checked out after the 1st night. Pros: -Staff was friendly. Cons: -Owner was sitting in the lobby with his shoes off like he was in his personal living room...gross. -Carpet in the hallway was filled with stains. -When I got to the room the door was already open. The lock to the room didn't work. After the owner looked at it, I was told to lift the door up to close and lock it. -Room smelled clean but actually wasn't. (See pics below) -Requested another room but was denied. -TV malfunctioned. Upon investigating, the guests from the room next door, their remote controlled their TV and my TV. -After checking out early, was told that my money for the rest of the stay could not be refunded.

U get what u pay for. Not bad for an economy rate hotel. Pros: Room, lobby and breakfast area were clean. Bed was comfortable. Cons: carpet in the hallways was disgusting. breakfast was toast, cereal and a waffle maker. Pool was empty. Stayed in El Paso because it was closest to the event we were there to attend. In the future we will drive the extra few miles to stay in a nicer hotel in Bloomington-Normal.

We’ve eliminated this city as a stay for travel. Been at 2 hotels both were less than appealing.

The pool is under maintenance, which was unfortunate. Beds were super comfortable and water was always hot, even after 3 showers

Our room was full of the little black ants this was the morning we were leaving and they said oh yes we know about the ants

For one night stay it worked fine .

Convenience Continental breakfast was lacking but adequate

Good clean room. Reasonible price

Good value

Friendly staff, no nonsense check in. Clean rooms, easy access from highway. Limited breakfast options. Not a deal breaker, really good mom and pop restaurant directly across the street.
