Verified Reviews of Econo Lodge Inn & Suites at the Convention Center
Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"No entry light(burnt out). TV remote did not work(dead batteries)."
Overall Score3.0/5
We have stayed here twice. The first time was better than the second. If we had been staying more than one nite the second visit, we would have just asked for batteries for the remote. We told the front desk when leaving. Hopefully they got it taken care of for the next occupant. We’ll see you again.

Customer Reviews of Econo Lodge Inn & Suites at the Convention Center
Expedia Group verifies all reviews to ensure that the customer has indeed booked on our site. To encourage customers to submit their reviews, we send an email containing a link to evaluate the hotel to which we sometimes attach a reduction or Expedia Rewards voucher to use on a future trip. We post all reviews whether they are positive or negative, to the extent that they respect our content directives. This monitoring is automated. Any rejection is manually checked and, if maintained, notified to the reviewer by email with reasons. We do not otherwise process changes, nor reviewer contact. We de-list reviews after 4 years, other than for properties having a non-significant number of reviews.
