This was one of the last two rooms in Champaign during the U of IL graduation weekend, so we stayed there to the tune of $169. Were it not for the special weekend, we doubt they could get $40/night. Check in/out were okay. The continental breakfast was okay, but nothing special. The hotel and rooms are just old and show... more

My family rented two rooms last minute for a funeral that we came into town for. The hotel staff was accommodating when we had to call twice to change our date of arrival to a different date as we found out more about the funeral arrangements. The hotel could use a major update and renovation. Our room was fair. I... more

On a recent trip, my wife and I had the displeasure of getting tired enough from driving to stop in at this EconoLodge. As Choice Privileges members, we always try to stay at Choice hotels and we have had very good luck with them over the years. This experience was contrary to the norm. The room was disgusting... - Carpets... more

My fiance and I were coming back home on a long road trip only to find every hotel from Rockford IL to Champaign booked, when we finally reached the Econo Lodge at 3 am we were beyond tired. The staff was amazingly nice, the hotel is obviously being remodeled as it has normal older hotel wear and tear, our room... more

The rooms arent in great shape but they look like they are trying. Have traveled alot the past few months and the staff... more

I travel A LOT and was impressed with my stay at this hotel. The price was so inexpensive I expected the worst, but I am always on a tight budget so I ran the risk. The surroundings are not visually impressive and there was the normal signs of hotel wear and tear as with a hotel of any standard, even... more

I am a 25 year old female and came to champaign on a business trip. When I entered the room, there was this smell of cigarette everywhere although the room itself was a non-smoking room. Added to that, there was black powdery substance everywhere (on the carpet, also on the phone). The sheets and the comforters looked disgusting. The towels... more

We booked 3 rooms here for our 8 family members while on a trip to Champaign at the very end of December 2006. The staff are courteous and helpful. The hotel is conveniently located just off the interstate. The continental breakfast was pretty good, with juice and waffles. The rooms are very cheap. This hotel is in DESPERATE need of... more

Okay, at $39 a night I wasn't expecting much, but we were doing a budget trip so cost was the first consideration. The Econolodge delivered. :) When we arrived there was no running water in the room. Asked the front desk about it and it was *then* they explained that it was being worked on and would be fixed before... more
