Very worn down rooms. I wasn’t expecting much, only stayed there because it’s close to the job. But when you go to use a towel and it has booty stains on it…. Unacceptable!

The Econolodge in Cuthbert is one of the few hotels nearby. We choose it based location and availability.

Walking into my first-floor room seemed good at first, but the room had a few ugly things that appeared quickly. Mandatory items: the bed, the towels, the bathroom fixtures were clean. The traffic areas of the floor were ok, but edges were disgustingly dirty, like it was hastily vacuumed. I even found a pair of socks left by a previous guest.

The single staff person was moderately friendly in our quick check-in and outs. Breakfast was oatmeal packages, muffins and yogurt with coffee and juice.

The pool was unusable: Literal trash in the green water and slightly low water. It needed a sign saying out of order and the gate secured.

A deep cleaning and ozoning each room would take this hotel up a notch. Repair or fill in the pool.

“Deeply Disappointing Stay During a Difficult Time

My family and I traveled to Cuthbert, GA for our aunt’s funeral and reserved 7 rooms (double occupancy, 1 night each).

At first, things seemed fine. The building, though dated, appeared generally well-kept. The lobby was clean, pleasantly scented, and had a quaint feel. The desk clerk was professional and courteous.

Unfortunately, the rooms told a very different story. My sister and I were first assigned to Room 116 (backside, ground floor). The moment we opened the door, we were hit with the overwhelming stench of stale cigarettes, mildew, and what smelled like a dead animal. Since we knew smoking rooms were available in the hotel, I called the desk to ask if we had been given one by mistake. To the clerk’s credit, he was kind and promptly reassigned us to another room.

Room 207 (second floor, front side) was no better. In fact, it was worse. The bathroom had not been cleaned—remnants were still in the toilet, and strands of wet hair clung to the shower walls. Only two towels were provided, with no hand towels or washcloths. The beds, while made, had not been changed after the last guests; the sheets were full of hair and skin flakes. The comforter was dirty, the blankets reeked of mildew, and some even had cigarette burns. The carpet was sticky underfoot, and the room smelled strongly of mold.

Sadly, our experience was not unique. Out of the 7 rooms we booked, every single one had similar issues.

This was an incredibly disappointing and unpleasant stay for our entire family

Dirtiest hotel we've ever stayed in. Staff member tried to tell us it was our fault that we got a dirty room because we requested an accessible bottom floor room and that the rooms on the top floor were much cleaner/nicer.

I will never stay here again

I was attacked by bed bugs during my stay. On the first night i noticed one bite, I dismissed it as a mosquito bite. After the second night I woke up with my body covered. When I went to the front desk to report it, no one was there. I've contacted Choice Hotels and they have done nothing.
