Overbooked location and cancelled peoples reservations without telling them before or after they did it. Got there late at night and they told us it was cancelled but did not say why. Expedia called them to find out why and they said overbooking. Had to find another hotel fast.

This was the worst place we have ever stayed. Can not believe Expedia books for them. We made reservations several months in advance. Drove 12 hrs to get there, to be told they didn’t have our rooms. That the people before us stayed over. Ended up being up into rooms that were no where near what we paid for. I had to take pics to believe what we walked into. The walls didn’t meet the ceiling and the tiles of the ceiling looked like they were bout to fall in. The bathroom was even worse. And to top it all of there were roaches everywhere. Like I said I have pics.

Terrible place
As soon as I parked to check in, there was 4 cop cars, there was a situation that cops were looking for a person, multiple ppl from different rooms were involved, only reason I know is because after I checked in, got my keycard, I was put literally next to the situation room. I overheard it all. Besides that, the place was disguesting, smelled moldy, dust everywhere, in the bathroom the drywall/paint was falling off which probably explains the mold smell. The towels were Terrible, left your skin with a bunch of lint. I’ll never touch these hotels ever again.

My sister and I booked a room here for the Eras Tour and found out day of stay they had bumped us. We received no notification from the hotel. We called to confirm and that’s how we found out that we did not have a room. The lady I spoke to was rude and unhelpful.

The ECONOLODGE in Gretna Louisiana was terrible. The room was not cleaned nor prepared for anyone’s arrival. There was a towel left on the sink, soap was left on the rim on the shower, toilet paper wasn’t refilled, nor was there a coffee pot. The staff was rude and charged us more for our Labrador. This is not a place I would stay at nor recommend anyone to stay at.
