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. more

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

I have stayed in at least 15 different properties in Lancaster County but would never go back to this one. Everyone in correct, the rooms smell. There was a terrible stale cigarette smell in the whole property. Definitely better choices exist in this great town. more

I come to Lancaster with my family yearly, and about three years ago we decided to stay at the Econo Lodge South. Let me tell you, I do not plan on staying at this hotel when I return. First off, I booked two rooms -- one for my husband, my son and I and one for my daughter and her... more

Let's start with the beginning...we booked this hotel through hotels.com. Hotels.com said there was no pool but you were given "access to a hotel nearby" so we assumed okay there's no pool but they have some sort of a deal with the nearby hotel. No, you have to pay 10$ per person to go to the hotel nearby. That was... more

This hotel is awful! Don't go! From the moment we walked in the room, we were hit with the smell of mold and mildew. It was obvious that they haven't cleaned the air conditioner in ages because of the smell. The towels were like sand paper. Didn't even go near the breakfast buffet...was afraid of what I'd find. For the... more

Okay, I always take Trip Advisor reviews with a grain of salt. I figure someone from the competition writes some of the more scathing reviews, but previous reviewers are on target here. We utiliized this motel because of its low price. We spent a week in Pennsylvania and stuck with Econo Lodges in Scranton, Lancaster, and Hanover (outside of Gettysburg)... more

Stayed one night, found the room very dirty, stained carpet and in the bathroom mold, spider webs and wall paper soiled. The blanket under the comforted was something you'd give your dog to line his bed. more
