Econo Lodge

One night stay. Unfriendly check-​in with clerk as slow as molasses. His speed was consistent at check-​out. Non-​smoking room with king size bed. Mattress had visible warp/​dip in center and was ridiculously uncomfortable. (It was like sleeping in the middle of the Grand Canyon and if I could have anchored myself to a wall to eliminate the repetitive falling into the mattress «trench», I would have). Shower needed a re-​caulking and had signs of mold. In general, I would not select this as extended stay vacation lodging. For an «urgent or unplanned» stay, it’s just… OK.

You get what you pay for. Mediocre property with low maintenance in rooms. Not shabby but could definitely use some sprucing up. Staying here for a night while on a road trip; here is a list of what I encountered in the room so far. Broken mirror, broken main door and a strong musty odour in the bathroom.

Stayed here two nights. Was in town for the Dave Matthews Band show in nearby Camden. The bed was fairly comfortable. The comforter had cigarette burn holes in it. Sheets appeared clean. Didn’t even attempt the complimentary breakfast.

I paid $ 70 for a room with a huge hole in the bathroom door, sticky goobies on the desk and repetitive noise that sounded like someone in the room above me dropping a golf ball on tile, letting it bounce a few times then picking it up and dropping it again.
I asked the night clerk if I could switch rooms. He said there were none available.
I asked the day clerk to resolve my issue. She claimed to be powerless.
I called and spoke to Margie, who claimed to be a Manager but seemed unequipped to offer a satisfactory resolution.
After two days I finally reached Mike Patel, who after 5 minutes, finally agreed to refund 20% of the cost of the room.
That’s a lot of work for $ 14.00!

A friend and I stayed at this place during a trip to Philly. It’s only about ¹⁵⁄₂₀ minutes from the city center which was very convenient. We found out, however, that there was a 5 dollar toll every time we went into Philly– the price to pay for staying at a cheaper hotel outside of the city! For a room that was only 60 dollars a night– it was a very good experience. We had a king size bed, flat screen TV, microwave and mini fridge. The room was very clean and the bed was VERY comfortable (which we weren’t expecting!). The phone in our room didn’t work, but we didn’t need it so it wasn’t a big deal for us. We arrived a little early and the staff let us check in and accommodated our request for a room on the second floor. Continental breakfast was pretty standard. Coffee, juice, mini bagels and muffins. Overall, A+ for a cheap stay out of Philly! Would definitely stay here again.

I liked staying here during my trip to NJ. The room was clean and well kept. I had a flat screen tv, king sized bed and the location of this hotel was very convenient to my travels. The continental breakfast leaves something to be desired but I didn’t really expect a lot of options for $ 54 a night. I would stay here again
