We arrived and had a family suite. The room was ok but when I went to get the luggage cart there was a sign posted on it stating you must check out the cart and if you dont return it they will charge you. The the internet computer in the lobby had a sign on it that they charged $2 an hour. When I pointed out in the Choice hotel directory it said free interner access. The desk clerk said he would log me on for free. I am a retired Fire Marshal from Texas I found many Fire Code violations from illegal wiring to the hallway lights, to all of the fire doors being held open with wedges. The spa next to the pool had not been cleaned in so long that when people turned it on a scum bubbles filled the entire spa. I would not stay at this hotel again!

This hotel was dirty, dated, and disappointing. The shower drain did not function and we were up to our ankles in water. Everything in the room was covered in plastic. The room looked like it hadn't been remodeled since the 1960s, when my grandmother's house was built. The bed was uncomfortable. The continental breakfast was just doughnuts and cereal. The view was terrible. It was overpriced. I would never stay here again.

Econo Lodge Garden Of the Gods Colorado Springs, Colorado
Date of stay: June 6-13, 2006

We had a great time on our vacation in Colorado Springs. There are many outdoor activiities to participate in.
Four adults stayed in a family suite that slept 6. The rooms were clean but needed a good amount of work, the carpet was torn, the fabric on the 2 chairs that they had was held together with staples, we were told that they were getting new chairs, but never saw them. Every day we had to get a towel because there were only 3 bath towels left for 4 people

When we made a request, the staff was accomodating.

They wre a lot of good restaurants in the area.

Spending quality time with your family is always an issue, but for $100 per night for a family suite, it shouldnt have to be, right? Think again if you want to stay here. Upon our business/personal trip, I was assured that there was internet access inside every room of the hotel, and need only bring my laptop to connect. Once we arrived onsite of the hotel, we were greeted with a stench similar to a "locker room" hotel room. The main bedroom was locked (the king sized bed inside), there were 2 towels for 5 people, and 3 pillows for 5 people. Now, call me crazy, but we all went there to sleep...so...I called the front desk, and low and behold, everything you needed, you had to find yourself. Next to that, the elevator stopped working at about 9 pm, so if you needed to go anywhere, you had to walk all the way up and down the stairs to get it, not fun with 3 kids, Ill tell you that much! When it was time for me to get on the internet, amazingly, it didn't work. I called the front desk again only to be told that in order to access the internet, I would need to "loan" a wireless device for "only" $95.00 per night. HA HA HA....so much for "free" internet connection in every room. When I asked the manager why he didn't want to stand up to his end of the bargain, he offered to call the police on our family and kick us out of the hotel. I am not a trouble maker, so we decided to leave the hotel at midnight, carrying all 3 sleeping children down 3 flights of stairs (remember the elevator?)....having to drive home for 2 hours in the middle of the night. It was needless to say NOT a good choice in hotels to stay at.....Next time, we will just stay somewhere else....Oh, by the way, did I mention that the Guest Relations of EcoNo Lodge said they couldn't help us because each Econo Lodge is independently owned....SORRY FOR US....What a waste of good money and time...DONT BOTHER, THE MANAGEMENT ARE ALL BOTTOM FEEDERS!!
