We were looking for something cheap but nice (if there's such a thing) for a one night stay on our way to the Mall of America and this place was great! The bed was a little too squishy for our liking but other than that the staff was very friendly and they had a great continental breakfast. The room was... More

Clean, Courteous, decent breakfast. And perhaps the most comfortable bed I've slept in at a Hotel, and I've slept in a lot!

Stayed here Thanksgiving weekend for the evening. We planned to get up early for Black Friday, so we were looking for cheap accommodations - this hotel exceeded all of expectations. I do not think you will find a nicer hotel in Rochester for the price. Clean rooms and nice staff. The complimentary breakfast is fairly basic, but for the price,... More

This is a great place for the money, clean, well equiped and bright. The staff was more than freindly. Did not have breakfast or use the shuttle so cannot comment on them.

I just completed a 5 night stay at the Econo Lodge. This is a first class hotel! It has been a Platinum Award Winner in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011!! The staff is what makes this a first class hotel. When I arrived last Sunday afternoon, I was greeted by Don Osborn who was working behind the desk. He is... More

We stayed at the Econo Lodge for a week while we visited the Mayo Clinic because of others who had recommended it, and we agree that the hotel is a great place to stay. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the staff was very cheerful and helpful, and the breakfast was simple but adequate and included fresh fruit every day.... More

We stayed here on our way to Rapid City, SD from Toledo, Ohio just as a mid-point and were not disappointed! Hotel was very clean, staff was so helpful, and the breakfast was very nice. We would recommend the hotel. They also recommended the Whiskey Creek restaurant across the street which was excellent!

This hotel is extremely clean and comfortable. Rooms are a little small but what do you expect for the very reasonable price. I travel 26 weeks a year. I would never stay at an Econo Lodge because of the reputation as a cheap dirty place. Well I did stay here because of the trip adviser reviews. Shuttle comes promptly for... More

I'm originally from Rochester, MN and now live in the Denver, CO area. We still have many family and friends in Rochester and when we come back to visit, we always stay at Econo Lodge South. For most people, when they hear Econo Lodge, a certain picture comes to mind. I can tell you that this hotel is far from... More
