I read all these reviews and decided to try it out anyways because the location was close to where i needed to be! We stayed in a room with two double beds and is was small, the bathrooms were remolded and where very nice. The staff was very pleasant and helpful, the lobby was clean and the road construction was OVER! I would not recommend this hotel to anyone on a 5 star vaca, but if you need a clean and quiet and cheap room this is the place to stay!! I will be staying at the Econo Lodge next time my family and I are in Wichita

I stayed at the Econo Lodge in Wichita Kansas in spite of the nasty reviews. I needed a place close to the conference I was attending, something inexpensive and something that had free wifi. The Econo Lodge fit the bill, so in spite of the bad reviews, I booked a room. The only downside to staying here was the road construction. My GPS told me to turn where there was no turn, but with the help of Econo Lodge's desk clerk, I was able to find my way.
My room was very nice. It had a huge, comfortable king-sized bed; and yes, the bed was so big, it didn't leave a whole lot of floor space, but that was okay. The room included a hair dryer and a mini fridge (both bonuses in my opinion). The wifi worked fine, I was able to log into my online class. There was also a table with chairs, a chiffarobe and a fairly nice-sized tv.
The bathroom was completely new (remodeled). One reviewer claimed the bathroom was very small (and she listed the square footage). Well, the toilet and tub are in a separate room with a door. I guess that's what she was citing. The sink is outside of that room, so her assertion of a tiny bathroom is only partly true. The bathroom is fine.
The staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. They know they've had bad reviews and they want people to know that they have a good place to stay. I had a positive experience there and I think it is a good place to stay. I willl definitely stay there again.

The Room was tiny and filthy! On most days they had someone come in and make the beds and take the trash out but I don't know how long it's been since that room saw a vacuum. In the time it took me to leave the shower and walk to the bed, the bottom of my feet were black. There was no pool, no elevator and no chances I'll stay at an Econo Lodge again. On top of everything, there was construction going on and it was difficult to get to the hotel. When we tried to call to find out how to get there, no one answered the phone. Just stay away!!!

this motel is as bad as the reviews, very dirty, starting with the lobby, bathrooms disgusting ( bring your own bath mat!) and room very small. This motel should be a lot cheaper for what little you get-(nothing). The one half way postitive thing I will comment on is the bed wasn't too bad but I still would not recommend.
