Economy Inn Safford

Older, divey place, probably from the 1950s. But owners take obvious pride and put great effort into making the best of it. Room was spotless, orderly, smelled clean. Bathroom had good size towels, all newer and matching, very neatly folded. Old TV, but worked great, lots of channels. Owner was very friendly, polite, gave a great price when I asked for his best deal. Really, if you don’t mind some cosmetic issues, a very nice place at a super rate.

This place displays a beautiful photo of a swimming pool full of water on their listing. It was Oct. 14th, 91 degrees outside and the pool was empty ! ( see attached photo ). The toilet wasn't even bolted down to the floor, and it rocked back and forth when you sat on it. ( see attached photos ) The shower head was the worst I have ever experienced ( even worse than Motel 6, if that is even possible ! ) The bed was comfortable, however !

A late night(8pm) arrival with no reservation turned into a really BAD choice. All of the other hotels were full so we thought it couldn't be that bad. BUT IT WAS!! took the last room at the end of a dark hall with an open gate to the back alley. No working phone so couldn't call office. They had locked the office door as soon as I went out!! Our govt should be ashamed ruining the motel industry like this. I travel a lot and it is getting IMPOSSIBLE. To find a good old American Motel. Absolutely no parking The front desk was ATROCIOUS people did not speak English. This Dump SHOULD BE CONDEMNED No coffee. Office was still locked up tight in the morning. But that was the least of our worries STAY AWAY FROM THIS ONE
