- Lesli (4/5): - This property is really run down and in need of renovations. The room smelled damp and musty. The beds are uncomfortable and sink down in the middle. The kids feet were dirty after walking barefoot on the carpet. There were a couple roaches on the bathroom floor. I do not recommend this hotel. The higher online ratings are deceiving. We lived through it, I’m still getting teased by my family for choosing it but hey, we learned!

- Winston (2/5): - Had small roaches . I left a couple of items being in rush to get out before items become infested.
I left my wallet which they returned to me,
But kept medical grade marajuana for sure, & most likely my passport seeing as I haven’t seen it since my stall here.
Staff was otherwise friendly however , I just called to see if my passport had surfaced , and there Ms a desk agent answering the phone who didn’t even know basic English. And instead of saying so , she just answer yes to everything.
I asked has my passport been found she said yes. I say really I’ll pick up tomorrow what time is good. She then says she doesn’t understand call when you can back tomorrow.
- Erica (10/5): It’s great - I had the same room
- Erica (8/5): So far it’s been good until the May the 8 idk if someone was stealing or short them out there money but I always paid my - Nice people On May the 8th the owner came to my room 120 asked for money which I pay regular if I don’t have it on Wednesday I paid you Thursday but this night i don’t what was going to get rude service but afterwards the 15 will not come back
- Lindsey (1/5): Bad -
- Lettrise (4/5): - It was booked for the wrong location
- Erica (10/5): Exceptional -
- Spencer (1/5): Charged for a room I never checked into - I didn't like the fact that I was booked into a hotel no where close to where I was and was told it was too late to cancel it. So now I'm being charged for a room that I never checked into due to a mistake that booking. Com made. I was in Ripley West Virginia. And was booked into a hotel in Ripley Tennessee.
- Erica (10/5): It’s great and the kids like it here - We get ours same room Nothing

- Levi (2/5): - Someone locked us out of our room 2 hours after check-in , got new key card, and find my Wife's luggage was missing. Waiting on Police.
- Kathy (8/5): - Staff very welcoming. Stayed on ground floor, no elevators, common entrance.
- Mason (8/5): Very good - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Nice
- Lashona (10/5): - Nice place to stay
- Benita (2/5): - Very very old and run down. Bedding was very questionable. Bathroom was gross.
Staff was excellent though!!
- Emily (6/5): - The people were super friendly and helpful. The smell was AWFUL! It smelled like old cigarettes mixed with something sweet. It was just a nauseating smell throughout the hallways, stairwells, and in the room on the second floor. The door on the side that led in also didnt shut at all which was a security concern. I was thankful to only have to stay one night. It wasnt the WORST experience, but not one i want to repeat. Again, though, staff was so kind! Couldnt have asked for better people in there.
- Mason (8/5): Very good -
- Rainy232 (10/5): Great hotel, highly recommended - What a lovely hotel, the room is so cosy and clean and the overall presentation of the hotel is well cared for and clean. I wasn’t expecting what we got and we will have fantastic memories of Ripley because of it. The price was very reasonable and it is now one of our favourites on our trip so far.
- Cindy (6/5): - Only one thin blanket on bed, uncomfortable mattress. It was clean & okay for a night.
- Mason (10/5): Exceptional -
- Erica (10/5): I love y’all so sweet to my family - They was so sweet
- Daniel (10/5): - Clean and comfortable for a lower price hotel. Easy on and off the hi way, big parking lot for trucks with trailers.
- Mason (9/5): Superb -
- Terry (10/5): - Good
- Rodney (6/5): - It was just average
- Jennifer (2/5): Stay away. Pay the extra money to stay else where - We stayed at hotel because it was closer to our family gathering. Next time we will make the drive and not stay here. The room was absolutely disgusting. There was blood on the matress and wall. The shower you had to stand spread eagle or you felt like the floor was going to cave in. The only chair in the room looked like someone had been tied to it and hands slit. The sides had something dark all over them. Yes we stayed but slept in our clothes on the blankets. We had drove 8 hours and needed a place to rest. Do not bother staying here. Find something else. The hotel it self is very dated and the hallways are filthy. There is also no elevator. Which yes we could walk a flight of stairs but i am so glad we didnt have alot of luggage. I tried to upload pictures to show what we seen but it wouldnt let me
- Shari (6/5): Pleasant -
- Bubby (7/5): Beds were too low to the floor and were not comfortable. Need higher quality beds! - Close to downtown. Nothing.
- Vicky (6/5): - It smell like moth ball mix with weed smoking
The latch to the door broken.
Very noisy place.
- Andrea (8/5): - Ar check in the clerk did not find my prepaid expedia reservation i made a couple of months ago. Took 45 min to sort out. I ended up getting a credit with expedia for a future reservation and had to pay out of pocket for this weekend's hotel room. It was extremely inconvenient and I should have been compensated much more than I was. Very upset with expedia and am going to look at other companies
- Dwight (8/5): Very good -
- Jonathan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dana (10/5): - Right off the highway, but you don't hear the highway noise.
- Moore (7/5): Stay was fine and yes, I would stay again. - I like the peace and quiet. I like the area and location of the hotel. Staff are pleasant and very nice. I didn't like the low bed and the Mattresses wasn't the best. Could've been firmer.
- Keith (10/5): - Fantastic! This place is a real sleeper. Good rate, comfy bed, perfect shower, fitness center. Best deal I've found in years, and I've been doing this for 33 years. Kudos!

- Genika (1/5): Bad -
- Cathleen (1/5): Bad -
- Megan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Melissa (10/5): - Got a peaceful night of sleep
- Dorothy (8/5): - The shower attachment needed to be replaced/repaired. It did not stay in place which made it difficult to take a shower. Also the stopper in the sink needed to be repaired.

Very nice and welcoming.

- Derrick (7/5): Good - Convenient location to main road and shopping. Quiet hotel Breakfast options slim to begin with but needed to be replenished throughout breakfast hours.
- Kyante (6/5): Pleasant - We did not eat continental breakfast. Lack of cleanliness, no elevator.
- Stephen (10/5): Travelling Australians - The room was priced well and was perfectly fine for an overnighter, bed was clean and comfortable. Basic but good breakfast selection, cereal, toast, cinamon scrolls, coffee and juice, pancakes were great.
- Joe (8/5): - I was there for work for an extended period of time and the manager helped with my noisemakers so I could sleep 7-8 hours each night.
- Andrea (10/5): - Good breakfast
- Rhonda (6/5): Pleasant -
- Janice (8/5): Very good - Last minute deal For the price it was a great, quiet safe ,clean environment 😀
- Angela (2/5): Nightmare in Ripley - The staff is extremely rude and judgemental if you are of a particular race. The room door had a broken safety latch and unable to secure the regular lock if you wanted to leave the room w/o a big hassle with the door. Bed was sitting low on floor and saggy and lumpy. At 2am still heard the manager talking through the door that had a huge gap in it from the floor up @least 2in. high.
Toilet ran all night. The window was locked by a screw, latch was broken.
The t.v. was a mini. 18inch.
- Julian (8/5): - Everything was decent but i didn't have any cell phone service in my room.
- Crump (10/5): Exceptional - It was quiet an peaceful. If you need a place to just relax away from home. This is it. Front desk is extremely nice Nothing
- James (8/5): - Room was acceptable, staff were pleasant.
- Steve (10/5): Exceptional -
- Steve (10/5): Exceptional -
- Frank (10/5): I would gladly stay again - Breakfast was good
And staff was great. Nothing
- markrB962EU (10/5): Wow! It’s Great - My wife and I were just passing through Ripley and looking for a reasonably priced motel. We took a chance on this Econo Lodge and found it to be a fantastic little motel.
It’s tucked on the outskirts of town and I wooded area and the view is great. Very quiet.
The owner and his wife are extremely helpful and friendly cater to every need we had. The room was very clean and comfortable we booked in for one night but it was so nice we ended up staying a second night.
Breakfast is not much but they do have a neat little pancake machine that you get to watch your pancakes being made and dumped out onto your plate. Other than that it’s the normal cereal oatmeal they do have some micro sausage biscuits.
We will definitely stay here if in the area again.
- Precious (5/5): Passable -
- Hargett (9/5): Superb -
