Econo Lodge Weatherford

FALSE BIG ADVERTISEMENT. They are advertising rooms at 39.99 & UP on a big sign that you can see when you drive by. I called and talked with the daughter of the owner, Mike Patel and asked about the deal. Her answer was, “We don’t have those rooms available right now. So, I said but for tomorrow instead and she repeated, “We don’t have those rooms available right now.” So, I said but for next week, next month. She repeated the same script. So, I asked so you have an advertisement that is a lie? . And she hung up on me. Very disrespectful. Very rude. So, these people are advertising something that it’s not true. It is year 2024 and I just read a review from year 2023 from an old lady that was charged $85 and she stayed there believing the advertisement on the sign. Now, it is my obligation to report this false advertisement to the Federal Trade Commission and to write this review on other sites. And be aware that the motel next door is owned by the same owner of this EconoLodge. And my personal experience staying at this hotel recently was not good either.

At the particular lodging at: Econo Lodge-Weatherford, Texas Address: 2207 Old Dennis Rd, Weatherford, Texas 76087 customer service phone: 817 599 3705 I was given a room on Christmas Eve in 2023 and stayed in room 114 alone. It had a broken door lock, a broken alarm clock, a phone with no hotel information on it, no free continental breakfast. I am a 7.9 year vegetarian, non pets/non marijuana/non cigarettes and indeed, I thought it was shoddy for it came to: $75 and the outdoor sign stated $39.99 and up. -Nicole Miers (DOB: 10 15 1984)

We needed a place to stay with our grandson after some confusion at Worth Ranch (Boy Scout Camp). We couldn't get a room in Mineral Wells (baseball tournament) so had to go into Weatherford. This was one of the few rooms available on the west side of town that had two beds so we booked it. Mistake. First: old, outdated, two story hotel with no elevator or rooms on the first floor. My husband and I have bad knees so it was hard getting up and down. Second: no breakfast (saw there was on the booking site) which was blessing in disguise as we found Tanya's Cafe going back through Mineral Wells to return our grandson to Camp. Third: noisy. Right across from a truck stop. Nothing against the truckers, have several in our family, it was just the walls and windows were poorly insulated. Now, about the room itself. The two beds were full size, not queens. The carpet was sketchy so we kept our shoes on except in the shower. The AC unit was loud. The beds were hard and each only had 2 small pillows. The shower curtain didn't have magnets to hold it in the tub so it would blow open. The shower head spayed water everywhere and we couldn't get it dialed (it had regular spray or massage spray) where it wasn't spraying the shower curtain and ending up on the floor. The refrigerator needed defrosting and smelled funny. The microwave needed cleaning. And the piece de resistance - the toilet was not properly attached to the floor. Every time you sat, or got up, it made a large booming noise and would shake. Overall, not a good place to stay if you can help it.

My children and their family that included an infant, arrived today for their reservation and the hotel and they denied talking to anyone. They had no room and left this family homeless. Shame on you. Buyer beware. It took me longer that it should due to incompetent staff and English not being their first language. Do not trust.

I’ve stayed at several Weatherford hotels lately due to being a travel nurse. This hotel has fair pricing and doesn’t look bad. Staff are friendly. Floors are laminate so there are no stains or odors. Looks recently painted (except trim/ baseboards). Water temperature was good, but hope you don’t want to take a bath because the tub’s plug doesn’t hold water. Is located directly across from a travel stop so may have trouble getting out on road due to trucks. The after-hours entrances don’t work. You have to ring the door bell on the outside of the building to be let in.
