Old and in need of reno. Not what I would expect from Econolodge.

you get what u pay for

when we checked into the room it was the worst smell we have ever smelt the lady at the counter was kind enough to change our room for us and give us a bottle of Frebreeze...helped a bit but the hallway still smelled really bad

A friendly welcome

by Paul (from Toronto, ON) August 2010 - A friendly welcome, well-located for restaurants, 5 minutes from beach, reasonable price.

Orillia , Ontario, experience

We went to Casino Rama and downtown Orillia is full of road contruction! The beach area is small but clean, the whole area needs a major make-over. We took a boat ride on the lake, which was nice and the captain was very informative! All in all we were a little disappointed in our trip!

Does Not look like the pictures

by (from ) July 2010 - We checked out the next day , The internet shows the hotel lookingfresh and clean. It smells like cigar smoke even in the nonsmoking rooms.

A place to sleep

by Robert (from Forest Ontario) May 2010 - At least it was a place to sleep for the night. Would not likely stay there again and would not recommend it to friends or family. It really could use some work. The ceilings and drapes were water stained. The room and hallways did not smell fresh or clean. Bedding was wrinkled and the pillows were practically flat.

Not a great room....but the price was right!

by Tracey (from Temagami) April 2010 - We stayed here recently , not sure if we would again. The check in time was late and the girl at the desk a bit unprofessional. The room was not clean, dirty mirrors, hot tub was dirty, and the taps were falling apart.The room had beautiful potential but has not been cared for or cleaned properly.The bathroom door had a big fist hole through it , it had a... more

Good and convenient for travellers

we had the ground floor room and the ground was poorly maintained at this time, it was such sunny but icy on the ground, dangerous for guests and staff to go into the rooms from the vehicle.other than that it was o.k.

Nice and clean

by George (from Bolton, Ontario) November 2009 - Staying here for one night while going to show at Casino Rama. Shuttle to and from the casino was comfortable and on time. Nice breakfast spot just up the street. Overall a very nice experience.

very nice

by Bryan (from cobden, Ontario) August 2009 - The price was right & the service was good. Very clean. The only thing I was disappointed in was that there was know shuttle bus to the casino.

Hotel Stay

by Kevin (from Brighton, Ontario) August 2008 - The Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff was excellent. The only problem I saw was on the first morning, the complimentary breakfast, the food was practically gone by 0815 hrs. The breakfast goes on until 1000 hrs.

Not a good experience

by Marianne (from Toronto) February 2008 - I phoned ahead to verify the room had a coffee maker, iron and ironing board as indicated on the booking website. All items were confirmed for the room. We arrived to find all items missing. The bed did not look like it was make up properly so we pulled the top covers back to find the sheets had not been changed from the previous guests.

Good Customer service

The room was CLEAN and warm. The beds were comfortable and clean. We were very pleased with the friendly and helpful staff. Also the continental breakfast was excellent as there had been a snowfall and we did not have to leave the lodge to get breakfast. The lobby was very festive it was decorated for christmas. We enjoyed our visit. We received good value for our money.

Good value hotel with friendly staff

by Stan (from Hamilton) November 2007 - This was the best priced hotel in Orillia and good value for the money. If all you need is a clean room with a comfortable bed, this more than meets the need. The staff were very friendly and accomodating. I would stay here again.

Non-Smoking Room Preference

The saty at the hotel was good. The staff was courteous and the room ready and clean. Unfortunately when I booked the room on-line there was no indication whether the room was smoking or non-smoking (which has become the norm), so when I checked in all I could get was a smoking room. UGH! That was quite unpleasant.
