Econo Lodge Orillia, Orillia | ConcertHotels.com

The room looked liked it needed renovations. However, I realize that if you get a smoking room nowadays it's unusual and I realize renovations are expensive.

Liked: I was able to get a smoking room.
Disliked: Loud, rowdy people in the hall long past midnight.

Liked: Friendly staff, clean room, reasonable prices
Disliked: Allowed a group full of young girls to run up and down till after midnight. Kids were sitting in the hallway eating pizza, blocking the hallway.

I generally do not bother to do reviews, I just either choose to go back or not based on how I felt about the room and amenities. Unfortunately, I was not pleased with the room overall. Our carpets were still dirty, not well vacuumed, and when we registered at 3:45pm and went to our rooms, there were no towels. My husband went downstairs to get some and advised that they were not ready yet. I was wanting to have a shower upon our arrival as were were headed out shortly thereafter but could not. Furthermore, when the towels were handed to me, they were quite damp, and since high heat is the only thing that kills bacteria and germs, I would not use the towels as they wouldn't be sufficiently clean. In addition, since there were a few other issues, the bottom line is that I would not stay here again. I don't consider myself to be too critical but cleanliness is a must.

Poor

Disliked: Bad heating Not cleanSmall TVNo vent in washroomCould not enter through side door Beds not levelOld smelly blanket on beds with cigarette burn marks

Very poor

Acceptable for one night

Liked: The location was convenient and easily accessible to highway 11 and lots of food options.
Disliked: The hotel is VERY dated. One of our beds had zero padding and all you could feel were springs. The hotel is close to being in a complete state of disrepair. The cleaning staff do a good job of cleaning, however, there is only so much they can do. The bedding, carpets, wallpaper all need to be replaced. There are things that are broken such as the light fixture in the bathroom and nothing is fixed. There was also evidence of water damage in the ceiling tiles. But, for $105 a night, it met my family's purpose as we were just there to sleep.
