Econo Lodge Jackson

You have seen the price point of the rooms so you know it is not going to be a good hotel. What you're probably wondering is how terrible is it? The interesting thing about this hotel is that it has the potential to be quite nice and apparently the economics have made the owners compete on being the cheapest hotel in the area rather than charging more and being nicer. It really just needs a good scrub, pulling up the musty carpets that make the hallways smell damp, an actual human in the lobby would seem friendlier. Now you're checked in by someone on a video screen, which could seem technologically exciting in a newer property. Beds are not comfortable. Pillows are flat. A person I spoke to on the phone was not helpful and a bit dismissive. No shampoo or coffee in the room. The desk was a bit sticky and the TV has seen better days. The floors sag so the drawers in the dresser slide open. But those are just your basic very budget hotel issues. I didn't experience anything that made me feel unsafe or any obvious bugs or critters in the room. Nothing left behind from a previous guest. So if that's the standard you're going for I hope this helps.

DO NOT STAY HERE! This hotel looks nothing like the pictures online and my wife found roaches on the bed as soon as she walked in the door! GROSS!!

I was looking for a pet free hotel as most in Jackson are pet friendly idk why, so it was 9:30 pm I was tired and chose this place oh my gosh why I didn't ask for refund idk. The front of hotel had trash and dead landscape, elevator had coffee straw's and dirt in it, hallways had dried mud in carpet and cigarette butts everywhere, my room wasn't cleaned very well cigarette ash in window seal, sheets had been washed I think but had hair on them from dryer, shower was nasty with hair all over and in sink, screen was torn off window and just laying on balcony. It was $91 tax included I can say the night clerk who checked me in was very nice and helpful she was there when I checked out so I asked her how many hours she worked she said 12 hour shift, no wonder she looked so tired and overwhelmed omg, btw I never saw anyone else no housekeeper or maintenance. Me and the clerk were only English speaking people on property I think this is a holding place for migrants until they are transferred to major cities the place was full of them and they were all standing out front of hotel waiting for something the next morning, who knows if they were legally in country or not? Be smart and stay at comfort inn right behind this place it's $170 a night but it was really nice I was just on a budget and couldn't afford to stay there.
