I stayed at this motel while doing consulting work at the nearby power plant. The location was ideal, as I expected to start working early and get back late. Otherwise, this motel is a little far away from town. The place is a dated, but not overly so. The rooms were pretty basic, but clean. There was some sign of... more

We spent two nights here while we were seeing the manatees and had a very good stay. The room was a good size, well-equipped and clean. The linen was changed for the second day and Reception were helpful. We didn't have the breakfast because we were manatee-watching the first day and had a lie-in the second morning. It does finish... more

This was the worst place we have ever stayed! They simply lied about havi ng breakfast or wireless. The room did not even have a phone or an alarm clock. Our "non smoking" room smelled like smoke and mold was all over the bathroom ceiling! The microwave was nice until it started sparking and then broke completely. The front desk... more

I am a stickler for truth in advertising. There is a huge sign just before you get to the Econo Lodge saying " Free Wireless Internet". There is nothing. I was given a story a that it is very hard to get wireless or internet. Give me a break. I stayed there awaiting taking a house we have rented. I... more

I know it is the busy season , but our stay at the Econolodger was not acceptable. The room was clean, spartan , and inexpensive. But, we had a confirmed reservation for a non smoking room, with small pet. We had the smelliest, smokers room I have ever been in! The dog slept up against door hoping to get a... more

For £30 a night you really can only hope for somewhere clean to lay your head for the night. This is what you get with a proffessional welcome and nice pool to cool off in too. more

On arrival we asked to look at the room and that was enough, luckily we arrived early and was able to cancel ,but nothing would have made us stay in such a run down filthy DUMP. more

I stay here quite often, and really like how I am treated by the staff. The rooms are clean and kept in pretty good repair. I recommend it to those that are on a budget and need clean, inexpensive accomodations. more

We swam with the Manatees in April 2002 in Crystal River. "Birds Underwater" was a great guide. We stayed at the Econolodge and would rather have stayed elsewhere. Our socks were BLACK after walking across the carpeting once......the pool was FREEZING cold. Thankfully, we had such a great time with the swim tour, that we basically just slept there and... more
