Worst service ever received. Dirty bed full of blood stains and towels as well. We took pictures of everything. To begin with checking in they denied our hot tub room. The king room said private hot tub in room on listing and they did not want to give me the room described because it cost more than what we paid. As we went up to see the room with our bags. We set our bags on top of the bed and saw the most horrific and nastiest sight ever. Under the covers were dried up blood stains and other human body like fluid stains like no one has ever cleaned the room before. We then proceeded down and showed the concierge all the pictures but the only accomodation she offered was to change the bedding. What kind of customer service is that.I will never stay in that hotel or choose Expedia for my booking leisures. The hotel would not accommodate my stay for what I paid for and on top of that unclean and unprofessional management. Expedia bad listing, false advertisement. Though, due all diligence and inconvenience we still put our heads down and decided not to let it destroy or cause a delay to our short vacation. The good part; safe, quiet and food walking distance.

5 Stars – A Wonderful Stay with Exceptional Service We had a fantastic stay at the Econo Lodge in Cedar Rapids and truly can’t say enough good things. From the moment we arrived, the front desk staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and courteous, going out of their way to make sure my child and I felt welcome and comfortable. The housekeeping staff impressed us also being kind, prompt, and always responsive to our requests with a smile.The room itself was spotless and clearly maintained with great attention to cleanliness. The mattress was exceptionally comfortable, making it easy to get a restful night’s sleep. I was also pleasantly surprised by how spacious the room was, plenty of space for us to relax and unwind. During our stay, we also noticed how friendly the other guests were. Most seemed to be other families, contractors or construction workers staying from out of town, and everyone we interacted with was polite and respectful. Honestly, I’m not sure where the notion of this place being unsafe comes from, I felt that my son and I were completely safe and well taken care of throughout our entire stay. Overall, this was a great experience, and I would happily recommend this Econo Lodge to friends and any of my family visiting the area. Whether you're traveling with kids or on business, this place delivers comfort, cleanliness, and genuine hospitality

This property is rundown. It doesn’t have any amenities (food) and it’s located in an area that isn’t safe for solo female traveler.

Will stay somewhere else if we come to town again.

Hair dryer didn't work. AC/heater unit was so noisy kept us awake at night. Carpet had a sticky spot on it,like gum or glue, light switches needed work. Wasn't a fan of the decorative size pillows.

I set this room up for my mom, and one of the reasons I chose it was because it was pet friendly. When she got there, they charged her a $50 pet deposit which was not disclosed in the listing, and she has yet to receive a refund back since checking out and leaving the room undamaged.

Everything was great the only thing I would change would be an extra chair in the room. If there is more than 1 person there is no where to sit. and maybe bring back the breakfast. But I thought the room and lobby was very clean. And I was met with a smile as we came in and when we left.
