So it is no secret that these places are cheap for a reason. I don't know what it is about the SAME motel just a few blocks away being the same, but different at the same time. At this location, it is easier access to the "complimentary pool" at the neighboring Howard Johnson i believe. This place was no better... More

We needed a hotel to stay at coming back from Philly and it was already 3 am, so we went with the cheapest one in the roomsaver magazine. Didn't start off too bad, ugly room, dirty walls, but whatever we just needed a place to sleep. Got up this morning, and went to take a shower, an inch of dust... More

I might be saying what everyone else is saying in here! We showed up at 11:30 on a friday evening, After a long drive of 2 hours we were hoping we could get in and go to bed. We paid 80 which in hotel prices is reasonable, though I think this room was probably worth 50 most 60. Was non-smoking... More

We stayed in Lancaster to go to see Thomas at the Strasburg RR. We stayed for 2 nights. The first room we were in smelled like mold/mildew. When we complained to the front desk, we were given a can of air freshener. Well, the smell was coming from the carpet and walls, not the air! We could barely breathe in... More

My father travels a great deal and booked a non-smoking room at the EconoLodge in Lancaster PA for me. I checked into the EconoLodge and was assigned a smoking room. We did not realize the mistake until we got to the room. I went back and ask for another room. The gentleman at the desk was very rude. He told... More

I know only 2 persons who would ever stay at this hotel. It stuck very bad. The room, 1st floor, middle, facing hwy needs an overhaul. Maybe had too many cats urinating on the carpet? Should be condemned by the health dept.

The desk staff very unfriendly. The pillows were stained and looked unclean. The remote for the TV barely worked. No toilet paper in the room and had to ask for it. No elevator so be prepared to carry everything up and down the stairs. No coffee maker in the room. Upon checkout, we tried to complain but the desk clerk... More
