MUCH nicer on the inside than the outside. Very comfortable bed. Only complaint is I could hear every time the toilet was flushed or a shower run in adjacent rooms as well as doors being slammed in the morning of adjacent and above and below rooms. Bring earplugs.

My friend and I were a little skeptical when we pulled up to the hotel. The exterior looked out of date and slightly run down. When we went to check in we found the lobby to be clean so that was a little relief. However, while checking in another guest canceled his reservation and said his room was "horrible". While... More

As others have said - location is a short distance to 4th Street experience. Staff was friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean and well maintained. We did have a small issue w/ one of our two rooms but called the front desk and the situation was resolved within 15 minutes. We were there during "Breeder's Cup" weekend and could not... More

Location was OK - we're big walkers, so we don't mind having to walk too far to anything. We were only about a 10 min walk to 4th Street Live, so that wasn't too bad. The breakfast was great! AND, they have a gym - which is important to me, and often not found in budget hotels.

Like other reviewers I agree this hotel has a good location if going to the Yum Center etc. With bridges closed in Louisville the traffic flow within this area at rush hour is horrendous. So a bonus to be able to leave the car at the hotel (for the $5 extra) and walk places. This Econo does Choice hotels no... More

First, we we're not sure about the neighborhood but everything was fine... Conveniently located downtown Louisville, within easy reach from the Interstate... Perfect place if you are on road trip and want to spend a day in Louisville... walking distance from KFC Yum center, Louisville Slugger Museum and Blue Grass Brewing Company (try the Bison Burger)... Now for the room....... More

The Econo Lodge Downtown is a no hassles, no frills, good location, sleep only kind of place. My room came clean, with a TV, hot shower, and cold air conditioning. The location is excellent being only two blocks from 4th street and within 10 minutes of walking from everything. Parking is $5 and don't forget the %15 tax not included... More

Stayed 2 hours, had to be escorted to my car by the police. Drunks running up and down the walkways beating on doors. Beat on my door and threatened me as they apparently figured out I was alone. I was there to be close to my grandson who was in the hospital at the time. Ended up going back and... More

This hotel is cheap and convenient to downtown, esp. 4th street if you're just looking for a place to crash. I stayed there one night, so what was offered was enough for the time I was going to be there. It is right next door to a Papa John's pizza place, and a Shell gas station is across the street.... More
