Bathroom small and pool not open. ##### LORI Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### William Oct 26, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort This was a last minute decision, but still a regrettable one. My girlfriend and I needed some away time...time away from the kids, time away from the grandkids, and time away from just plain being adults! I rated this hotel poor due to the quality of the rooms. Nothing is up-to-date, the rooms are in poor condition, and the beds are absolutely the cheapest, lowest quality mattresses they could have possibly found. I have slept on mats in jail that were more comfortable than the mattress in our suite. The hot tub in our suite was also nasty! We did not even attempt to use it due to how dirty it was. We were disturbed half the night with drunks arguing and fighting, and they said nothing about the fact that they had teenagers drinking vodka in the pool area! The only good thing about our stay was the pool. Although it was not the cleanest area around the pool, the water itself was clean and well heated, and the hot tub was also perfect temperature. I would rate this a 2 star! If not for the pool being warm and hot tub being hot, it would most certainly be rated a 1 star!! We will not be coming back to the Econo-lodge, ever! My personal recommendation....pay the extra to stay at the Holiday Inn just up the road, much higher quality and 100x more comfortable!! Do not reserve a room here, I promise you will regret it as much as we did!! ##### William Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Cozy 4BR Cabin in Ellijay • Pets Welcome • Hot Tub](https://www.expedia.ca/Ellijay-Hotels-Serene-And-Private-SettingHot-TubGames.h105702972.Hotel-Information) > > [Southern Comfort Pretty as a Peach](https://www.expedia.ca/Eatonton-Hotels-Southern-Comfort-Pretty-As-A-Peach.h92815402.Hotel-Information) > > [Riffle Run Cabin: River Access, Hot Tub, Game Room](https://www.expedia.ca/Ellijay-Hotels-Riffle-Run-Cabin-River-Access.h100850279.Hotel-Information) > > [La La's Cabin Fire Pit Pet friendly sleeps 8 Secluded](https://www.expedia.ca/Ellijay-Hotels-La-Las-Cabin-Fire-Pit-Pet-Friendly-Sleeps-8-Secluded.h107901045.Hotel-Information) > > [Lanier Islands Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Gainesville-Hotels-Lanier-Islands-Legacy-Lodge.h23247.Hotel-Information) > > [Callaway Resort & Gardens](https://www.expedia.ca/LaGrange-Hotels-Callaway-Resort-Gardens.h37734.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Atlanta-Mall Of Georgia](https://www.expedia.ca/Gainesville-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Atlanta-Mall-Of-Georgia.h424885.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Richmond Hill Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Savannah-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Richmond-Hill-Inn.h1367198.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Resort Jekyll Island by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Brunswick-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Resort-Jekyll-Island.h19383.Hotel-Information) > > [Drury Plaza Hotel Valdosta](https://www.expedia.ca/Thomasville-Hotels-Drury-Inn-Suites-Valdosta.h5455897.Hotel-Information) > > [Honeysuckle Hideaway: Mountain View Leisure Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Blue-Ridge-Hotels-Honeysuckle-Hideaway-A-Mountain-View-Leisure-Lodge.h67325463.Hotel-Information) > > [The Weeks End | Ellijay, GA](https://www.expedia.ca/Blue-Ridge-Hotels-The-Weeks-End-Ellijay.h26682553.Hotel-Information) > > [Secluded Cabin | Sauna | Hot Tub | Pet Friendly | Game Room | Wrap Around Deck](https://www.expedia.ca/Helen-Hotels-Secluded-Cabin-2BR-3-BA-Sauna-Hot-Tub-Pool-Table-Wrap-Around-Deck.h28899329.Hotel-Information) > > [Classic/Modern Downtown Home In Valdosta](https://www.expedia.ca/Thomasville-Hotels-Classicmodern-Downtown-Home-In-Valdosta.h21385452.Hotel-Information) > > [Forrest Hills Mountain Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Helen-Hotels-Forrest-Hills-Mountain-Resort.h11593881.Hotel-Information) > > [The Villas at Coosawattee River Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Blue-Ridge-Hotels-The-Villas-At-Coosawattee-River-Resort.h38741783.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Ridge Vacation Rental w/ Deck & Game Room!](https://www.expedia.ca/Epworth-Hotels-Blue-Ridge-Vacation-Rental-W-Deck-Game-Room.h100850174.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Macon-Hotels-Best-Western-Inn-Suites.h85076.Hotel-Information) > > [Lake Oconee Lake Front Cabin+Private Dock+Fire Pit+Fireplace+AMAZING VIEWS!](https://www.expedia.ca/Eatonton-Hotels-Lake-Oconee-Lake-Front-CabinPrivate-DockViews-Views-Views.h90214152.Hotel-Information) > > [A Perfect Sunset Cottage on Lake Oconee!](https://www.expedia.ca/Eatonton-Hotels-A-Perfect-Sunset-Cottage-On-Lake-Oconee.h87575291.Hotel-Information) > > [Huck Finn’s Hideaway / Hot Tub On Lake and creek](https://www.expedia.ca/Dahlonega-Hotels-Huck-Finns-Hideaway-Hot-Tub-On-Lake-And-Creek.h91914752.Hotel-Information) > > [Chateau Elan](https://www.expedia.ca/Braselton-Hotels-Chateau-Elan.h49872.Hotel-Information) > > [Mountain Top cabin when you need a break from EVERYTHING!
