Econo Lodge Salina Scenic Route 89 & I-70

The breakfast was bad. The room was dirty, and the front desk guy was rude and hard to understand

Great place to stay for cheap, but the overall cleanliness of the hotel needs improvement.

Arrived around 11:45pm to check in with my husband and a little one. The first room we received upon check-in was not cleaned by housekeeping. The sheets were soiled, the bathroom was dirty, towels all used, and trashcan full. We packed up and went back down to the office to let them know of the dirty room ask for a clean room. The lady at the desk walked me up to the new room to verify it was cleaned and had towels in the bathroom. Once she left, we turned the lights on in the room and found spider webs across both beds, as well as a massive spider that disappeared as my husband went to kill it. There was also mosquitos all over the room. We left just as quickly as we came in and told the front desk. This was 12:15am, just 30 mins after arriving. The lady refused to give us a refund and stated her husband was cleaning the other room for us as we spoke; we refused the room. I called back that morning during our drive and she stated she needed to speak with her accountant to do a refund and took my info to get back to me. This was 6/12/26, she still has not gotten back to me to this day, 6/26/26. I had to fight the charges with my bank to get my money back from attempting to stay at this nasty, nightmare hotel. I would absolutely not recommend staying here. Horrible experience.

Property was so so on the outside. Room was decently cleaned and bed was comfortable, but the door was wrapped, making it difficult to open and close. Main complained is the water. Had to run the water for at least five minutes on the sink before any warm water, and practically fill the tub before I got hot water. Had to call the owner to ask why we weren’t getting hot water. I really don’t like wasting water.

Big problem about sleeping on this otherwise okay property! I got woken up at 4AM by the entire second floor. It looked like only a few rooms were occupied, by the cars in the lot. But at 4:00 AM @#$%$#@! The entire second floor woke up and started getting ready to go to work. A bunch of worker who got picked up by vans. If the owners cared about the rest of the guests at the hotel, they would put all the workers in rooms above and below each at the end of the row, so people who were SLEEPING wouldn't have to listen to them all get up, move furniture around, and march down the corridor past our rooms, and then we could sleep past 4 AM. I want a refund!!!

I came in late here with 4 people. The check in person was adamant that we only had "4 people." I was okay at first, but then later told me to make sure that only "4 people" cold come to breakfast. It was very odd. The disappointing part was that once I got to the room, there were only 3 sets of towels. With so much focus on the headcount, he should have offered me another set of towels....that was frustrating. The second issue was that the place had some cosmetic issues (uneven tile, mismatched) in the shower/bath area that also got water everywhere in the bathroom. On the positive side...the price was right.

Be prepared if your from the area staying here, they require a $250 deposit if your from the area. It’s been 3 days and I still haven’t gotten it back. Couldn’t understand a word the front desk person was saying.

The manager was really nice and accommodating. I usually ask for a first floor room so that i can hear/see my motorcycle. The class of room i paid for was only available on the second floor. The manager was noce enough to move me to a different room on the first floor at no charge. The room was clean and had everything needed including shampoo (many budget rooms fo not). The only issue that i ran into was that i bought a pack of snack donuts and only consumed half of the pack. When i got up in the morning they were teaming with ants.
