Econo Lodge Downtown Albuquerque

Realmente lo pasamos muy bien en Albuquerque. A pesar de tomar un camino equivocado y, para empezar, terminar en la ciudad abandonada por Dios. Debo admitir que tuve una experiencia muy agradable con los narcotraficantes locales. Todos fueron tan geniales. Casi quería quedarme más tiempo. Pero debido al mal momento de la desconsiderada sobredosis de mi pareja, debo irme. Así que adiós Ciudad Abandonada de Dios, hasta que nos volvamos a encontrar, Shaggtheznutz

I had extreme difficulty checking in even though it was pre-paid. It seemed to be a problem with Orbitz travel agency and the hotel. It was not easy to resolve and discouraging to stay there.

The bed was comfortable and linens and towels were clean. But the room was somewhat dingy and the bathroom was worn and grimy in spots. The sign in the lobby said that the breakfast would begin at 7:00 am, but the doors didn't open until 8:00 am each day. This caused me to miss the breakfast two of the three days. There were several homeless people loitering around the hotel.

The window to my room was broken, there were fruit flys and stained towels and sheets.

Night man at the front desk was fantastic. Room was a typical cheap motel, lots of sirens at night and a gunshot a few blocks over when we arived.

The first night we checked and they put us in a room that was dirty and had a completely shattered window that was barely held together with tape. Wind came through as well as noise from the street below all night. They said there wasn't another room available. The following morning they also said no other rooms were available, but later in the morning they found they had 2 other rooms available. We were able to be placed in the quieter room, and this room was very good. It was clean, the bed was comfortable and best of all, it was quiet with no window issues.

The entire staff are completely rude and seem to HATE any guest that arrives! I was so offended I just left and took the loss of money!!

This is a basic motel which is perfectly fine for a brief stay, no frills stay in in Albuquerque. The room was clean, and the staff was helpful. Shout out to Robert for being quite helpful during my stay. Public transit, which is currently free, is nearby, as are several good restaurants. The motel is close to downtown, and the University of New Mexico is also nearby.

I stayed for 1 night. Shortly after i left, the receptionist (who i interacted with three times to check in and check out) texted me the following message: “Hey, this is Sam from the front desk at Econo. The Indian guy who was at the front desk when you checked out. I hope it is not too weird for me to get your number this way to try to talk to you.” I immediately blocked the number and did not respond. I reached out to ******* for a refund and they called the front desk at which point, he apparently told them he had texted me because i’d forgotten to sign a receipt when i checked out which is ABSURD. I continued to pursue the matter with ******* and they were unable to get the hotel on the phone again. The next day, i got a call from the manager AJ. I calmly explained the situation and while he was apologetic, he also said he couldn’t refund me. He asked if there had been anything wrong with the room and i was BAFFLED. The only appropriate resolution is to fire this employee immediately and issue a full refund - this is an OUTRAGEOUS violation of my privacy and the access this employee has to my personal information (including physical address and credit card) is terrifying. I filed a police report and will be continuing to pursue legal resolutions for the emotional distress this has causes. If you are a female traveler stay FAR FAR away from this business!!!
