Do not stay here. They are infested with bed bugs! Everyone in my group who stayed in the hotel turned up with bed bug bites! The bites can take up to 9 days to show up, and every person had the bites within 9 days. I have e-mailed the GM over the hotel, but he has not responded to me yet. Please don't make the same mistake I did. Spend a little extra money and go for the nicer hotel.

Should have read the reviews.
This hotel is basically a construction zone. They have torn down half the hotel and are replacing it. The pool is gone. The lobby in the pictures is gone.
Had a large group, so needed 5 rooms: All had at least one of the following: Phone didn't work, plumbing didn't work, dirty, air conditioner had entire top missing exposing moving fan.
The manager did agree to give one room free after one group had to try three different rooms to find one even pretending to be clean. Also, the manager did get us some better breakfast selections after we complained about that.
Choice Hotels Customer Service indicated that we should have expected lower quality from EconoLodge, but this is rediculous.
The Days Inn across the street gave us a "walk in" rate 75cents per room per night more than this hotel gave us on an internet rate.
DO NOT STAY HERE!

This was definatly the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. I was in Chareston the1st of May and needed a place to stay for the night. My two friends and I were looking for something not to expensive and we found this place.... If the past reviews havent convinced you to avoid this place, read on........

First, we pull in to the parking lot.. looked like a typical hotel... my friend and I went into the front office and the man at the desk appeared to be training the woman working with him. Both these two people went out of their way to be nice to us so we agreed to stay ($52 a night for 2 double beds + tax). As my friend was paying for the room, I look over her shoulder to see a man walking through the parking lot w. a 12 pack of beer. Should have known right than what we got our sevles into...

We than pull our car around the back where our room was (2nd floor) to find the entire back side was full of Hispanic men. Being 3 19 yr. old females, this was expecially scary for us. The moment we step out they all start yelling "CHICA!!!... HEY CHICA"... They continued to yell and stare at us until we get up to the 2nd floor.. where they than walk out into the parking lot an watched which room we went into.. by this point, id had enough..

I go to the front desk and was moved to the front of the hotel.. the man reassured us that we would be just fine. After this point, heres what happened:

*Construction site right infront of hotel.. which contunined the ENTIRE night.. Dump trucks in and out constantly....

*Paper thin walls- our room was conjoined with a wooden door that could easily be broken into

*At 3 AM phone rings in our room, it was one of the Hispanic men asking for my name (they knew it cuz of the tag on the front of my car).. they had likely called each room until someone by my name answered.. then he hung up on me. This worried us because they knew what room we were in.

*I slept with my peper spray the whole night-enough said

*Room had a lot of mold... everywhere

*Urine on tolite seat

I could continue to go on and on but those were the main things. DO NOT stay here.. go elsewhere!!

We stayed for one night, this is all it took. There was an unmade bed, Only one towel one wash rag. No coffee or filter. I went to the office I was given the coffeee and the filter, but when it was time to make coffee there was no coffee cups. No soap in the room also. The T.V did not work unless you plug it in. The remote comes when you check in, the first one id not work, But when it came to turning off the TV, you had to get up and unplug it again. I feel what took the whole cake was, I open the drawer for the Yellow pages which was not in the drawer, but beside the bible was a open condom. Yes I said Condom. We reported this to the office and they said that they did not believe us. I feel I should get a refund for the discusting way this room was.
