Econo Lodge

Four stars on the basis of this being a good basic place to lay your head for the night while traveling through the area. The staff were friendly, the room was dated and a little dingy but not dirty, the bed was comfortable and there was breakfast if I wanted it for a cheap price. We’ve spent twice the amount along the highway just up the road for not much better. Taking it for what it is, you can do a lot worse.

Great price and friendly staff. They were willing to adjust the price for my pet after the second day. Military discount is always appreciated. No one broke in to my vehicle, which was my main concern being that Fayetteville is popular for all the wrong reasons. Now on to the room. Not a great smell when you first walk in. Rug is dirty! White socks ended dirt black after a few steps. Bathroom is questionable and extremely small.

Great experience for a great price.
What is offered: clean rooms, breakfast from 0600, and friendly service, and a pool during summer time.
What is not offered: a bad experience.
Whether you’re in town for a few days or just passing through, from an experience and value standpoint Rodeway is your lodging of choice.

Problem is being resolved and I’m pleased with the resolution proposed by Econolodge.

Amazing for the price and convenience. Right off of 95. Good place to stop if you need to stay somewhere overnight. Super friendly staff. Very pet friendly and low pet fee. Beds were extremely comfortable! And the continental breakfast was great. Would recommend to anyone.

decent room at a decent price… beds were horribly uncomfortable, but I won’t hold that against them as I’m hard to please with beds. quiet, clean, convenient location.

I don’t know how anybody could give this place any stars. I would give it a big fat 0 if I could. It’s the most disgusting place I’ve ever stayed. We have a dog friendly room, although we don’t have a dog with us, and there are stains all over the rug. It says it’s a non-​smoking room but it reeks of smoke. There is mold in the bathroom shower! I kid you not when I say do not stay here. Our group was on a budget so I guess that’s why we are here but I would save up the extra money to stay in the 3 hotels that are right next-​door. Update: Breakfast? Where? Roaches? Yes — one in the bed.

First of all, thank you all you Unilocalers — I would have never tried this Econo Lodge without your reviews so please keep up the good work!
Stayed here the beginning of May 2015. Driving with my 3 cats from CT to FL to spend holidays/​winter with my family has become an annual thing. My dad flies up to CT and then helps me do the drive down and back, we stop «halfway» and spend the night with the kitties. So far the motels we’ve stayed at in this price range have been frankly disgusting. In fact on the way down in January, we checked into a Howard Johnson’s late night and I was so skeeved out, I ended up sleeping on top of the sheets and used one of the kitty blankets on top of me (I travel a lot for work and have become a bit of a hotel/​motel snob). But I was pleasantly surprised by this Econo Lodge — by the far the best budget pet-​friendly motel I have stayed in. The rooms, beds, and bathrooms were clean which is my #1 priority. Rooms have a good-​sized refrigerator and microwave. Plenty of room for the cat carriers, beds, luggage, etc. Staff was extremely friendly. The only negative and I hence took off a star, was that the room was impossible to find. We needed a map to find it (literally, the staff gave us a map!). And even with a map, we wandered around for a good 15 minutes. Whomever assigned the room numbers to this section must have been on drugs that day. Numbering made NO sense. Kind of frustrating after driving 12 hours, and all I wanted to do was let the cats out, wash my face and get into my PJs. But overall, bookmarking this Econo Lodge for future CT — FL road trips.

This Econo Lodge was by far the best we’ve stayed in with our cat. We have 2 toddlers and cleanliness is an issue for us, my husband takes it a bit far with a black light that came with out steam cleaner, but the room was CLEAN! We’ve stayed in places over twice the price where the bed spreads and floors weren’t even close to clean, a pet friendly hotel at this price was astonishing. Friendly staff that goes out of their way to return a toddlers sippycup left in the room fridge sealed the deal and prompted me to write my first review.

This is a great budget hotel. The staff is very friendly. The rooms are clean and the beds are somewhat comfortable. This is a good place to stay when looking for a place to sleep at last minute.

Clean rooms and smelled good. Only $ 58 with military discount. Only place in the area that had rooms. Water pressure was good in the shower. Comfortable bed. Would stay here again.

If you like to find dirty disgusting men’s boxers shoved behind the head board of the bed then this is the place for you! NEVER AGAIN

Staff was very nice & courteous. Place was accommodating to include continental breakfast with fresh cooked waffles. The room was awesome & equipped with microwave & fridge. Room was clean & the décor was pleasant. Compared to other hotels we seen for the price this hotel met the mark.

This is not a 5-​star hotel, but it is a five star Econolodge! Pet friendly, very clean, safe location, and cheap price. I was very surprised with how clean our room was — even the bathroom was sparkly! There were a couple of water stains on the ceiling, but that doesn’t affect me.
We usually stay at really nice hotels, but when we travel with the pets we can’t be picky. Would definitely stay here again on future trips!

This place is not as bad as others say, check in and out were really fast. everything was great, but the bathroom can use a little touch up.

I found a roach in my room. they told me i couldve had another room but if you find it in one room youre more likely to find it in the rest.

This was the half way point for our trip from NH to FL. We were not intending on stopping anywhere to sleep, but by the time we reached the halfway point we realized our best bet would be to stop and sleep for a little.
After reading the reviews and deciding on staying at this hotel due to the awesome rates, I would have to say that for a one night stay it was a great experience. The room was clean minus the musty hotel room smell.
The receptionist that checked us in was very friendly and ensured that we were aware of the complimentary coffee and popcorn that they had throughout the night on top of the breakfast they offered in the morning.
If you are looking for a cheap but clean spot to stay, I would recommend the Econo Lodge in Fayetteville. Very Clean and Employees are Courteous.

Outstanding best of the worst hotels

Arrived here at 2 am after driving halfway to Florida from dc. Great friendly service at the door, good value (60 for two twins), continental breakfast included (make your own waffles!, apples, cereal, juice, coffee), and just an overall good experience. Would definitely come here again.

Now travelers, I know what you are thinking, and I agree — the name does not inspire visions of nice lodging. This location is actually a pleasant place to stay. The place is clean and well maintained. My king bed was comfortable, the a/​c worked flawlessly on a hot NC day/​night, wifi was reliable, and quiet surroundings.
While there are many locations of this chain I avoid, this one I like and recommend.
