Econo Lodge Inn and Suites Stevens Point WI

We stayed 2 nights at this Econolodge, while touring Mesa Verde, and was checked in by Jasmine. Pros - Large king bed room, good bed and linens, mostly clean. Cons - No hot water in the bathroom sink, No bathroom fan, black around the shower fixtures, the showerhead was fixed and couldn't take a shower without getting my hair wet, Tiny pedestal sink, a small TV. Breakfast was minimal - Fresh waffles, cereals, muffins, apples, orange juice and coffee.

This was a pretty nice place. Staff was very friendly and helpful, and the room was nice and spacious and clean. We stayed here for two nights. It was nice to have some muffins/bananas/coffee available before starting the day. Would definitely stay again.

Traveling through Durango. It was late and we were ready for showers and sleep. First impression when checking in was the guy working the desk was super unfriendly. We couldn’t have felt anymore unwelcome. If there had been any other hotels here with vacancies we would have left immediately. All that was left available was a room with 2 king beds one of which slats were broken at the end of the bed. When we got up and went down for breakfast and all they had was coffee juice and waffles. For almost $200 for a room one would think friendly service unbroken furniture and a decent breakfast would be available. We won’t be back

I chose this because it had good TripAdvisor reviews (which they proudly display at the check in desk), and because the photos look great. It does not look like that! From the outside, this looked like a motel from the 60’s. Inside has clearly been updated with some nice touches…laminate flooring, ceramic tile in the bathroom, granite sink top. But our queen bed room was incredibly small and cramped, which would be tolerable if all you need is to come in and go straight to bed. But some “little things” were disconcerting, like curtains sagging off the rod, the incessant drip in the sink, reaching for the bath towel after showering and discovering it was damp (like it had been taken out of the dryer too soon—-I HOPE that was why it was damp, since the alternative gives me the heebie-jeebies”). But the deal breaker was the cooling system, which is controlled from some central point. The fan, which was supposed to give us some measure of control, did not work at all. I just do not like the idea of not being able to set the temperature to our preference. I was very disappointed that this did not measure up to the expectations TripAdvisor reviews and photos created.
