“Basic motel room but clean and good value”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2010

I spent two nights at the Econo Lodge while visiting my daughter for parents weekend at UDel. I left it a little late booking a room and everything else was either booked up or incredibly expensive. I wouldn't normally not have stayed at this hotel but having said that, it provided what we wanted - which was a clean, comfortable room for the night. Also for $54 including breakfast - that was about a third of what everyone else was charging that weekend. On the downside, the rooms open onto the car park which could be a little creepy. Also, it's next to the highway so noise was a bit of a problem although we solved that by putting on the fan which drowned out all background noise. The room was clean and had been recently recarpeted and decorated. The bathroom was quite poor - small with very cheap fittings. The shower head was new though and gave a good shower. Also, the towels were plentiful and quite good. Breakfast comprised of coffee, juice, fruit, cereal (two kinds) and toast . Next time I will try to book ahead and get into a better class hotel - but if not, I would not be adverse to staying here again.

“not too good”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2010

We went to visit my daughter for parents weekend at UD. With a football game as well that weekend, there weren’t many rooms available at the other hotels. The room was cheap ($55 dollars a night) but nowhere near as nice as other hotels we’ve stayed in the area.

The room picked up a lot of noise from the room next door as well as the parking lot. It really smelled of smoke and the promised internet access was not available. Like a previous review said, breakfast was a joke. There were 2 kinds of cereal, coffee, juice and a few slices left from a loaf of bread.

That being said, we were only there to sleep, so I guess we saved a few dollars over the nicer places.

“Bad experience..room very run down but clean...breakfast a joke!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 October 2010

I guess we should have expected for the money but worse. Room was seedy, run-down but did seem to be reasonably clean. Breakfast was cereal and some pre-wrapped muffins...we ate at Denny's next door which wasn't very good either.....won't stay here again.

“Still a great place to stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 June 2010

Clean room, clean bathroom, everything in good repair, good breakfast, great check in experience (Pat--a long time employee), great check out experience (Jennifer--another long time employee). Excellent air conditioning in room. Still a 24 hour Denny's in the parking lot; Pizza Hut just outside the parking lot; 24-hour 7-11 just around the corner from the motel. And, you can still go for a walk on sidewalks just past the 7-11. Something very rare for a suburban motel. This is a great place to stay; an excellent value.

“OK Hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 June 2009

The room was clean but it was clear that it is time for them to replace the comforters.
Wireless internet is NOT available.
If you need internet, you need to request a special box from the front desk. It was a huge hassle to connect the wires and posed a dangerous condition with kids tripping over wires.

The lady at the front desk was very nice. Breakfast is served in a very nice room. The breakfast itself was very good.
