The room was old and used. The door to the hotel did not lock and anybody can enter the back door right by where our room was. The pool was never open, which is one of the main reasons why we went there. Very disappointed in everything the only decent thing was the morning breakfast

Never will I stay

When we first arrived, the entrance was untidy. After checking in and getting to our room, we received a call from the front desk saying we might have been given a room that was already occupied. They later confirmed it was fine. When we entered the room, it smelled odd, but we dropped off our bags and left. Returning around 11 PM, we noticed a towel on the counter above the fridge and a strong odor like pet urine. The carpet made our socks black, and I developed a rash from the bedding. There were only two clean towels under the sink, a used towel on the tub, and an open soap wrapper—making us question if the room had been cleaned at all. The pool, listed in the description, was locked and empty. While getting ready for breakfast, housekeeping walked in as we were dressing. Due to the condition of the room and lack of cleanliness, we decided to find another hotel. I spoke to the front desk, explained everything, and was told to return the key for a refund. Since I booked through a third party, I was advised to contact them, but was told the hotel would issue a refund. I checked out and received a receipt showing the refund. However, Hotels.com later informed me that the hotel refused the refund. Despite multiple calls and messages, I haven’t heard back from the hotel manager.

I was in Conway visiting my son at college. Econo Lodge was close by the school. The cost was reasonable. The room was comfortable and clean. Front desk staff were polite and friendly.

Having stayed at other properties within only miles of this property, we would say that it was drastically inferior and not at all worth the price difference. The check in office was unattended with a note posted to call for someone to come. When he came, the clerk warned us that the door handle was installed backwards and lifted up. And then made an inappropriate and alarming joke about how that added an extra layer of security for female travelers who might be alone. Our room was in a separate building and the electronic lock on the building to enter did not properly lock. The safety latch on the room door was completely gone and when the clerk came and attached one it was still wobbly to the point where we moved an armoir in front of the door to feel comfortable sleeping. We were given one hotel size bar of soap for both washing your hands and showering. A hand-written note on an envelope was left under the TV asking for tips for housekeeping. The remote control was missing the back cover to keep the batteries in. To be fair the bed was clean, we did not see any bugs in the room and the bed was perfectly comfortable. Absolutely would not stay again. Cancelled a future reservation at the same hotel immediately after leaving.

The stay was pleasant and comfortably priced. Our suites were clean. The staff assisted with finding the correct remote for the TV. Management was very attentive to our request. I would stay there again when I travel to Myrtle Beach in the future.

We stayed in building B. The main building smells like cigarette and looked like it was a hotel party. I wanted to.cancel my reservation the moment i saw the people there. However, Joe, was so very kind and accomodating. He gave us a room in B building. The room was immaculate in terms of cleanliness. It also did not smell. Please give thanks to your housekeepers! They are amazing. As i was walking by u could smell the cleaning products beinf used and floors mopped very well.

This place is perfect for the cost. 3 star rating, because you get what you pay for. The room got the job done - a place to sleep and shower. For the inexpensive cost, I would stay there again. My only complaint, the room had a little bit of a musty smell, but a little perfume spray into the air conditioning vent helped.

Work needed.

Booked 2 rooms for 3 nights, the staff at the desk was pleasant and check in was quick. Upon checking into rooms one of the rooms we were given when we entered the bed was unmade, TV on and room keys on the table. Twice during our stay we had to go to the front desk because our keys would not work to get into the room. Went to the complimentary breakfast and it was minimal and not appetizing, the pool was not open. The door that the sign says need room key to open never locked. I would not recommend this hotel
