Econo Lodge - Hotel in Fairfield - 1349 W Texas St, USA

Back in 2018 my mother and I stayed here for a couple days while we were homeless. One day, I believe it was presidents’ day, the room was more expensive than usual. It was 100 dollars that day. My mother and I had went to a store a couple blocks away from the motel and as she spoke to a friend she handed me 100 dollars and told me to go pay for the room. I did, the money was accepted and I walked back to the store. When we came back we saw our room door wide open with the woman who ran the place and a man holding a big black garbage bag. My mom immediately started questioning the woman. The woman told her; “You never paid.” and started accusing me of doing something else with the money. We got our stuff and left, but I was hurt. We had gotten scammed and we were back out on the street, I was 11.

I really like this motel, especially if you're on a budget. I have never seen any bugs here. Not like I have at other motels in this area. The only thing that I don't really care for is the manager is really mean. I mean I understand that she's the reason why there is no riffraff roaming around here, however a kind word every now and then would be nice.

Couldn't expect much with the prices they offer but this is just straight up disgusting. They are infested with cockroaches. Never coming back. And definitely don't expect a refund

Cockroaches everywhere. Not to mention shooting and sirens all night long. Dirty and gross. This was 2 years ago.

The owner was very pleasant and helpful with directions on places I needed to go to. The room was clean, plenty of towels, lg TV and comfortable bed. Only suggestion, bring your own pillow. These are short and more like a throw pillow for your couch.

With the exception of a nice front desk clerk and a nice remodeled bathroom, this place is dated, dirty and scary. Terrible condition throughout with old nasty carpet, old, missing handles on the end tables, door was beeping light thru on the sides and missing about 1/8” with a huge gap. Didn’t feel safe at all. Pretty bad place. Would never stay here again.

Check in was simple with a reservation and the gentleman at the desk was polite. I had to be buzzed into the office and had to check in with a nice person behind a window There was a small cockroach in the bathroom which caused me concern of other possible activities. I did not feel the door was secure, I was able to see lights through the cracks. There was a interesting person talking to themselves and banging a hammer on the sidewalk..

My friend and I are and have been loyal choice members in many different choice hotels. All my stays have been pleasant and with little or no major complaint. IVE NEVER HAD SUCH A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE AT ANY CHAIN EXCEPT ECONO LODGE. ECONO LODGE IS A HOTEL I WAS INVITED TO STAY WITH BY A GUEST WHO RENTED THERE.
