Econo Lodge - Hotel in Lewiston - 1021 Main St, USA

DO NOT STAY HERE. Stay anywhere else! Anywhere! Please do not give this guy your hard-earned money!||||There's this tar like substance that comes up from the floor to dirty your socks and feet. The smell of weed leaks in from the neighboring rooms. ||||Parking is lacking in the evenings when everyone is home for the night. ||||You're expected to clean your own room but don't worry if you forget to clean something: the constant inspections will remind you and then re-inspect afterwards to make sure. You ARE the maid here. ||||You also won't feel lonely when the lovely fragrance of weed drifts in from one of your neighbors. This includes neighbors on a different floor, too.||||Can you at least get some toilet paper and other basic things motels usually provide on a daily basis without you even having to ask? No. That's what stores are for. Can you get someone to come collect garbage daily? No. There's a dumpster right outside, do it yourself.||||But the worst is the manager. He pretends to be nice, but hand over that money and his attitude takes a 180 real quick. Constantly complains about every little thing he can think of as if he were letting you stay for free.||||Got a family of five staying in a room with two queen-sized beds? That's too many people. You're not allowed to have that many. What, they're children sharing a bed? Still too many. Then why the heck did you rent that room to that many people???||||You have two vehicles? Too many. Not gonna force you to move a car, but sure will complain to you about it.||||Like to step outside to smoke? You spend too much time outside. It's weird. We like our customers out of sight and out of mind. You only get so many minutes out in the yard before you have to go back to your prison cell of a room. ||||Don't try to sneak out, our many cameras let us know when you're coming and going. What, you thought they were for security? They are! To protect my property from the customers that use it! Forget the time someone broke into your car. We saw nothing then.||||Oh and good luck taking a shower. The water changes temperature like a child was playing with the hot and cold knobs randomly.||||At least they have good wifi, right? WRONG. Everyone is connected to the same router so expect constant buffering and interruption of service.||||The front counter is well decorated. Too bad no one is ever there to help you.||||I am sure I am forgetting more, but you get the idea. These rooms are not designed for long term stay, even though extended stay is the sale angle. Please do yourself a favor and stay anywhere else. Stay in your car if you have to. Just please do not give your business to this man.

I booked a single queen bed for three nights. I had my well trained black lab with me. I was booked into the only room that I was told allowed dogs. The room was dirty and the bathroom door was broken and wouldn’t shut. None of the outlets worked but a few that were located next to the bed and a few outlets looked dangerous. I never received towels or clean sheets during my three day stay unless I happen to see the maid and ask for them myself. The free breakfast consisted of Costco muffins that were cut in half and some stale cereal. My husband went to get us a muffin and coffee on our last day only to be yelled at by the manager at the front desk. We were taking the muffins back to our car as we were leaving. The manager yelled that the muffins must be eaten in the lobby and that we could not take them with us! I went to the lobby to talk to the manager and explain that we were not taking the one muffin cut in half back to our room as we were leaving. He said read the sign! He had a sign that said breakfast must be eaten here. Then he said we were banned from ever staying at his motel. He then said if my husband wanted to settle this outside? I said are you threatening us? I was shocked that this occurred over a stale Costco muffin. We were very polite guests and left our room cleaner then we found it. I started reading other reviews where this manager charged the guests for damage ect supposedly caused by their pets so I made sure to take pictures before we left. I then turned off all transactions on my debit card so he wouldn’t be able to charge anything to card. It cost 207.00 for three nights. I was charged an extra $15 dollars a night for my dog. I am concerned that this dump is a fire hazard and would caution anyone not to stay here. When you call the 800 number listed on his card to complain you get this same manager.

I will be fully honest about this place. The owner is nice enough but is financially driven, I don't think that he is a good person or someone that I would make friends with. As far as the motel is concerned this is a great place, especially considering it is the cheapest available in the area. The rooms are very clean and well maintained, everything works and beds are comfortable. Carpets are clean and walkways are maintained. They have NO room service for the length of your stay however (no one will come into your room for any reason) and their "continental breakfast" is literally Cheerios and mini muffins. They may or may not brew coffee each morning (it was empty every time I tried to grab a cup) If you get the lower rate they don't even give you access to "breakfast". I accidentally scheduled for the wrong date and the manager would not allow me to cancel or arrange for a different date. I had to dispute the charge with my bank to prevent from having my card charged. Good luck.

They listed a renovated hotel room as anapartment for 500 every two weeks. They overcharged 550 every two weeks and never refunded. They try to kick people out who have been living there with 30 minutes notice. Even people with BABIES. The owner Zach, does not give a f**** about anyone or anything but himself and his s*** box hotel. Everyone there is corrupt. They try to say you didn't pay when you did. They go back on things they say constantly. The WORST PLACE IVE EVER BEEN. NO KITCHEN. NO HOUSEKEEPING. NO TOWELS/TP. NO ANYRHING EXCEPT THE WORST PEOPLE AND PLACE IVE EVER SEEN. FOR 550 EVERY 2 WEEKS.

Booked through hotels.com, arrived dirty syringes and trash everywhere. We were exhausted and went inside the owner I presume demanded 200.00 cash deposit. We paid for the room on the website. We refused cash transaction. He called us nigg**s and threatened us. It was so disheartening. He refused to refund us and hotels.com won’t help either. I don’t believe the world is full of racists but tonight he made me believe that maybe I don’t or haven’t experienced what other people endure. 😞 bottom line don’t stay here and don’t use Hotels.com.

My company reserved a room for me and paid for two nights ahead of time. When I got there, the owner refused to let me check in even though the room was already paid for. He wanted me to pay again and wasn't backing down. He was rude and threatening because I couldn't understand his heavy accent. He then told me I was from Europe (even though im not) and my ancestors stole this land from the real natives and that "white people are evil" - yes, he did say this! He then went on to tell me how he knew 3 languages and was "highly educated". I told him "that's nice" and now im getting irritated because it's late and realize this guy is a thief and a racist and there was NO WAY im staying here. At one point I told him I was a veteran as were members of my family and he totally trash talked all veteran of the US military. What a hypocrite this guy is - living in a land "stolen by the whites" while enjoying its benefits and having no problem stealing from whites and living in a country that has provided him a home and many benefits that the rest of us don't get. The lobby also smelled musty. Stay here if you want to patronize racism and corruption.

I stayed here back in November of 2014 and I will NEVER stay here again. Me and my sister were out for a night of drinking at a bar within walking distance. We refused to drink and drive so that is why we chose here. You first walked in and it smelt like it wasn't clean. The mirror was dirty, dusty like it hasn't been rented in a while, the toilet did NOT even work half the night, the sink did NOT have running water and the only running water was the bathtub. Half the lamps did NOT even have working light bulbs and I was just in shock. I paid almost $70 dollars there and I will NEVER recommend this hotel to nobody. Go down the street to Cedars Inn. They are so much better than Econo Lodge by far. At least everything works instead of half assed like you guys

We were so tired and happy to finally get a place to sleep. The price seemed fair and the man was kind. We have a small dog which they were able to accommodate for a small fee. The pet friendly room was not very clean. The carpet was grimey. The counter tops were not clean. The towels had some stains. The bed felt clean with white sheets which was appreciated. They also had a fridge microwave and decent tv. The wifi gave me a strong security warning so we didn't use it. I only wish it had been more clean but we're all ok. I would probably try somewhere different on my next visit.
