The staff were very friendly. I think that is the only positive thing about my stay. I booked this hotel for the pool. But when I got there it was down for manitnce. Looks like they were using it for storage. The hallway carpet wasn't very clean. My room had an ant problem. I will never stay there again!!!!!

Easy check-in, booked a king size non smoking room. Very kind and courteous staff, room was very clean, towels, soap, tv, microwave, fridge, free WiFi, clean pool. Breakfast consisted only of cereal, milk, cinnamon rolls, and coffee at breakfast at the time of stay. Pillows were small for my taste, but overall, would book again. Would love to see more breakfast options :) thanks again!

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

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.

Stay was fine. Breakfast was basically non existent so don’t plan on eating here, and the staff was odd at times. There is a McDonald and a restaurant within walking distance and a DG market!

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.

The outside of the property does not look inviting. The rooms smell awful. They did let us check in a little early so that was a plus.

Water pressure in shower wasn't good, but overall the property was good. My room was clean and the bedding looked new. Carpet in hall was pretty worn and dirty looking but the room made up for that.

Fine to sleep
Place is clean enough, staff is nice enough. Pool was locked and had to ask to use it, and ask for towels. Breakfast was cereal or toast, just butter, no jelly. Awful coffee, hot water but no hot chocolate or tea for it. So it’s a fine place to sleep and have a swim for the price, but don’t expect anything else and just go to McDonald’s next door for food.

El Paso Econo Lodge
The check-in and out process was simple and efficient. The carpet in the hallway was filthy. One of the lights on the bedside table flickered when I tried to turn it on. There were pieces of folded cardboard supporting the toilet. The shower/tub creaked as I stood in it. The bedspread and sheets were stained and did not smell fresh. People in the hallway slamming doors at 2:30 and 3:30 a.m. and talking. Breakfast appeared to be good, but I had planned to eat elsewhere with friends. Did not use coffee maker. TV worked fine. AC worked fine. I used iron and hair dryer, both fine. Fridge worked fine. Newer chair and ottoman. I'm so sorry to be critical, but I don't know how else to alert the company to needed improvements.

It was a decent place to stay for what we needed. Wish the listing would have said pool was closed for winter as that’s why we mainly picked this location for our travels.
