What guests think
Across recent reviews of Econo Lodge Valdosta Mall Area, guests commonly describe an aging, run‑down property with heavily stained carpets and unpleasant smells, while frequently noting friendly front desk staff and an appealing budget price point.
Cleanliness complaints are widespread, citing dirty hallways, stained linens and towels, and occasional reports of bugs or mold. Rooms feel dated, with issues like nonworking TVs or heaters, missing locks, and thin walls; facilities show wear, including elevator concerns, limited or poorly lit parking, and a pool that is sometimes closed or unappealing. Breakfast is often sparse or not replenished, though a few guests found it acceptable. Travelers seeking consistent cleanliness and comfort should consider alternatives.

I hate this place and definitely would not be spending my money there again. The roaches were so disrespectful and not to mention the nasty shower curtain. The staff has kids in the hotel screaming and talking very loud in the morning. The pool was disgusting my family refused to get in.

Terrible experience. The entire parking lot was full with no place to park yet. They refused to give a refund so I can go elsewhere. A group of people were having a parking lot party right near the main entrance sitting on coolers, drinking beer and blaring loud music. Parking area was poorly lit and unsafe. TV does not work. Hotel is dirty. Pillows and bedding are horrible. Can’t wait to leave.

The bathroom was in serious need of a refresh. Shower pan was cracked and tile floor did not appear to be clean. Room was ok, but did notice dust in the corners. Lobby carpet needed to be replaced.

Bugs,filthy common areas, dirty towels, poor lighting, busted up rooms (air conditioners, furniture,etc) not worth 120 a night at all. Doesn't look like the sheets were changed either. Other guests were noisy. Running the halls. Poor parking availability. The only good thing here was the nice lady who checked us in.

How can 1 econo lodge differ so much from another? I can understand it needing updating but I disabled bug check immediately entering and all was good but 3 times my husband killed bugs on the floor including 1 in bathroom. I’m convinced they are just waiting to fail the elevator inspection (which is due this month) ten shut the place dow for complete overhaul or demolition for new place. DO NOT RECOMMEND

This place had a friendly check in person but this property felt unsafe. It was impossible to find. People were drinking alcohol and smoking right in front of doors. Elevator sounded like it was going to break. Carpet was completely filthy. It wasn’t even vacuumed in hallway and area by elevator. Black mold on air conditioner. Sinks didn’t drain well. Stove in room looked like it never had been cleaned. No dishes in the room so why pay for the kitchen area. Only 2 1/2 sized pillows per bed. Not enough towels in room even with reservation. Very musty smelling. Overall room was just not clean. Sheets were ripped. Breakfast was very sparse. It’s like they put out so much food and never refilled it even though breakfast went to 9am. Eggs were poached and disgusting. There was no juice. No salt or pepper. No milk alternative. Only sweet n low and sugar. No donuts, pastries, or bagels. No yogurt. Tables dirty. Counters around food were dirty. This ranks up there with worst motel I stayed in. DONT STAY HERE. Pay more money and go somewhere else.

The floor behind the beds and end tables have not been swept or mopped in months due to the amount of dirt and dust there. There were no mattress protectors on the beds. The bathroom was questionable if the floor had been cleaned. There was a dead bug on the floor. We were greeted at the front desk by a person with several facial piercings. They were nice though. The front office looked rundown.

I was shocked how filthy the place was. I parked at a hotel next door because I was worried about the safety of my vehicle. I had requested a non smoking room that was pet friendly and learned that any room with a pet had to be on the 3rd floor and could only be a smoking room. The carpet in the halls was filthy with stains everywhere. When I got off the elevator on the 3rd floor there were two old upholstered chairs torn on the back and sides with stains all over. The floor smelled of pot strongly. My room was next door to where the pot odor was coming from and was so strong I could not take it. I asked for another room and had to stay on that floor. My room TV would not change channels, the bathroom had all sorts of stains on the toilet and walls. Two small pillows. I had been traveling hours or would have not stayed. I slept in my cloths and would not take a shower due to the condition of the bath. I left early in the morning. The place needs to be shut down. It was by far the filthiest hotel I have ever seen in my life.

Staff very, very friendly. However, facilities in general need a lot of work. Our room didn't feel clean. Sticky floor. Hairs on sink, gross looking splatter stains on wall. Wimpiest, tiniest pillows I've ever seen and only 2 per bed . Only 3 towels and 1 washcloth for a room that was registered for a family of 4. That's upsetting when you're checking in super late and your tired, ready for a shower and a good night's sleep.

The photos of this property are inaccurate. This hotel is run down, unclean and unsafe. There is no sliding lock on our door, the lamp heads are held on by zip ties, carpet is disgusting, rust on bathroom door frame, dirt on walls, holes in bedding and it has an overwhelming scent. Very overpriced for this condition.

The only positive thing about this review is the young lady that was working the desk when we arrived (not the manager). The hotel is desperate need of repair and updates. The carpet is terrible, we could hear wind blowing around the windows, the TV didn’t work and the noise level was ridiculous the whole night. I would not recommend at all.

When we arrived at 9:30pm, no one was at the counter. I stood for 5 minutes calling "hello" to no avail. I went to my car to grab my phone to call hotel numbet, and when I returned, a lady was there. She said sorry, she was in restroom. A sign would have been nice. There were all kinds of people hanging in hallways. Appeared to be possible migrant housing. Room smelled of ashtray, 2 remotes did not work for TV, and TV was coming off the wall. Morning attendant (clerk) very perky and nice.

From checking in which was horrible due to double payments upon putting my cc information in to them billing me taking my money yet basically telling me they couldnt find the payment so i wasnt able to get a room. Once i went ballistic, the front desk lady whom quit the next day called the lady owner whom "out of the kindness of her heart" mind you after taking my money rented us the the room I reserved and paid for. The room thank goodness temporarily was not worth the troubles. Dirty walls. Beds horrible. Hallway stunk. Just not pleasant but we were between a rock and hardplace so we made due. The owner was rude and not helpful when the television went off due to a internet connection issue basically said figure it out. Its definitely not what i expected not what i booked not what i wanted at all. On any level. Think twice before booking. Wish someone would of told me beforehand.

Terrible experience. The entire parking lot was full with no place to park yet. They refused to give a refund so I can go elsewhere. A group of people were having a parking lot party right near the main entrance sitting on coolers, drinking beer and blaring loud music. Parking area was poorly lit and unsafe. TV does not work. Hotel is dirty. Pillows and bedding are horrible. Can’t wait to leave.

When we arrived at 9:30pm, no one was at the counter. I stood for 5 minutes calling "hello" to no avail. I went to my car to grab my phone to call hotel numbet, and when I returned, a lady was there. She said sorry, she was in restroom. A sign would have been nice. There were all kinds of people hanging in hallways. Appeared to be possible migrant housing. Room smelled of ashtray, 2 remotes did not work for TV, and TV was coming off the wall. Morning attendant (clerk) very perky and nice.

This place had a friendly check in person but this property felt unsafe. It was impossible to find. People were drinking alcohol and smoking right in front of doors. Elevator sounded like it was going to break. Carpet was completely filthy. It wasn’t even vacuumed in hallway and area by elevator. Black mold on air conditioner. Sinks didn’t drain well. Stove in room looked like it never had been cleaned. No dishes in the room so why pay for the kitchen area. Only 2 1/2 sized pillows per bed. Not enough towels in room even with reservation. Very musty smelling. Overall room was just not clean. Sheets were ripped. Breakfast was very sparse. It’s like they put out so much food and never refilled it even though breakfast went to 9am. Eggs were poached and disgusting. There was no juice. No salt or pepper. No milk alternative. Only sweet n low and sugar. No donuts, pastries, or bagels. No yogurt. Tables dirty. Counters around food were dirty. This ranks up there with worst motel I stayed in. DONT STAY HERE. Pay more money and go somewhere else.

Smelled like a marijuana dispensary. So many people walking about the parking lot at 2-3am being loud. Some looking in cars. The floors abs furniture were filthy. Bugs in and around lights and window. On several occasions there were random puddles in the floor of unknown origin. The “breakfast” is a selection of cereal or toast. Waffle maker but it was not clean. No juices, just milk and coffee.

The room was ok clean, almost bounced back up to the ceiling when I sat down on the bed but it was comfortable. The blanket was smelly so I didn't use. The water was hot the next morning so that was nice. The worst part was the overall smell of pot that permeated throughout the place. I was on the phone with someone when I got to my room and told them I might end up with a contact high. The staff was super friendly and breakfast was ok too.

This property is in desperate need of refurbishing. The carpet is nasty, stains everywhere. There is a food smell that makes it feel like people are cooking in their rooms, a heavy Asian food smell, like you’re in a Chinese restaurant. It wasn just from a delivery, it never went away. We went down for their sad little breakfast and there was literally 1 piece of bread and cereal. No milk. Everything had run out and there was no employee to be found, even at the front desk. We finally found the front desk person cleaning a room down the hall. What?? She said there had been a large group just come through for breakfast. Umm no. And if there was, someone should have been there replacing things. We went out to breakfast and did not return. Stay away from this place.

It was clean enough, but not the greatest. It needs upgrades. The Staff isn’t very friendly and I hate when I show up and my room is all paid for, but you want a deposit. All fees should be upfront. What if I show up with a paid for room and don’t have a deposit?

The room was awful. It was supposed to be non-smoking and no pets. There was a cigarette burn on the sheets (on the top of the bed) and there were bugs in the bed (looked like ticks). We left immediately and they were supposed to give us a refund but after multiple calls no one has refunded us and we do not have any recourse.
