Evening noise minimal, mostly heard car doors closing. Hotel looks shady... Poorly maintained grounds, dirty windows and walkways, sticky chairs in the breakfast room, food thermometer sat on outside garbage barrel for two days (strange??). Breakfast food fair... A lot of carbs, cereal, milk. We stayed here using our Choice Privileges points. Would we ever pay cash to stay? NO. More

Despite some bad reviews, I went ahead and booked this through AARP for about $50- tax and all. We were just traveling through on our way home. The unit was clean, motel was kept up fairly well, breakfast was ok, exercise room was nice after being in the car all day. No issues. Certainly no bed bugs. It's not the... More

It has been a week since I checked into the Garner Econo Lodge, Sunday, November 7th, for two nights. It was around 5:00 in the afternoon and the lady at the desk was very nice and accommodating. My room was nice and clean; what I would expect from an Econo Lodge price. However, when I woke up the next morning,... More

I had a business meeting in Raleigh and stayed at this venue. I requested a non smoking room for the overnight stay. When I opened the door to my room there was a strong scent of cigarette smoke. It was horrible. I went to the front desk clerk to indicate they made a mistake and had given me a smoking... More

I stayed here with my mom & son 8/9/07-8/12/07 while visiting family. This hotel is now Econo Lodge. I have stayed here a couple of times over the past 10 years when it was Comfort Inn. Now that it is Econo Lodge the exterior looks nice. The rooms are a bit outdated but it did have a microwave & refrig.... More

We made a reservation to stay at this hotel for one night, but when we got there, we decided not to stay. The neighborhood was a little run down, and the exterior of the hotel looked rather shabby. I looked at the room, and while it seemed clean and tidy, all the furnishings and fixtures were second-rate. But the overriding... More

I stayed here with my husband and 3yr old son Memorial Day Weekend 2005. It was quiet in a good location to shopping and restaurants. All rooms have microwaves/refrig. The continental breakfast was not that good some of the bread was molded. It was ok for the price you pay. More

We stasyed at the Comfort Inn South in Garner, NC and during our stay about eight people in their late teens/early twenties literally began rioting in the hotel. They were running through the halls screaming and cursing, playing music wide open, and terrifying everyone in the hotel. They banged on our room door hard enough to rattle it in its... More
