Econo Lodge Topeka at Wanamaker

Bed was noisy and way too soft. No facial tissue in the room. End door to outside on first level did not lock. Breakfast nearly non-existent.

It takes a LOT for me to write a poor review.

The staff were pleasant when they were at the front desk, which was rarely. The room itself was fairly outdated and had an unclean presence. The bathroom was leaking and dripping constantly, and had a general appearance of dirtiness. The area around the hotel was filled with several other hotels and a landing spot for overnight workers and people hanging around the doors into the late hours of the night. But the WORST part of this hotel, was the breakfast. This was NOT a breakfast. They had one plate of wrapped packaged muffins, and a coffee set up. The waffle maker was half broken. There was NO creamer, NONE. Only a half and half bottle in the fridge, which was luke warm. We couldn't eat anything there.

No water or drinks at breakfast. Only one waffle maker and a few muffins and that’s it. It’s sad how dirty the facilities and rooms are. For what we paid we should have gotten at least water or no makeup spots on sheet. Room had a smell. Well at least the pull out bed wasn’t full of food. Had good hot water showers and toilet were clean

The property address is not correct. It is not on Wanamaker Drive, it is actually on SW Westport Drive. I drove past it twice.
The breakfast area is not well monitored. There is nothing more than one waffle maker and a toaster and bread. There is no jelly, jam, or honey for the bread. No low sugar syrup for the waffles. Coffee frequently ran out.
The bathroom had no hair conditioner, and the hair dryer was gone. The only ice maker was out of service.
Pluses would include: (1) Price, it was reasonable enough to make the problems acceptable {just glad my wife wasn't along on this trip}. (2)The room was clean, (3) the staff were courteous, although the front desk was not always manned.

Room was clean but could have used a box of facial tissue and the curtains were in tatters.

It is very run down. Ice machine didn't work. Pool was closed. Upholstered chair in the room was stained. Breakfast was a joke. Not even any fruit. peeling paint and drywall. One of the worst places we've ever stayed.

Comfortable bed and spacious room.

The space in rooms and quite place

The room was clean, the staff was nice and the price was right. The parking lot is in need of repair, screens on windows need to be replaced and the outside needs attention with landscaping. The pool looked fine but was closed and the breakfast consisted of waffles, toast, cereal milk and coffee. The lobby has a distinct incense smell. Overall was fine for a quick trip to Topeka and a place to spend the night.

When we walked into the room, it was hot and smelled musty. The walls and ceiling had peeling paint and we were worried to take off our shoes because of the gross carpet. Our dog started to gag when we put him on the floor and then wanted to get off the floor. We went to the front office and told them that we wanted a refund and we didn't feel comfortable staying there. They offered a different room but we didn't feel comfortable and safe there.

Old and dirty.

No pool or hot tub to use, apparently they are shutting it down for good. The room was extremely outdated and gross. Breakfast was a joke, there was old cereal and a waffle maker w nothing to drink- not even water or juice. Don’t go here!

Pool and business center weren't operational, but shops nearby and quite affordable. Quiet area from what I could tell.

It was good for a quick overnight stay. The fabric chair looked really dingy and stained. I saw duct tape on a side door that was supposed to be secured entry but was completely unlocked after 10 pm.

Breakfast area could be so much better

There were bed bugs! Sheets were filthy. Staff was unapologetic and unsurprised. They didn’t refund my stay. Run from this place!!!!!

Staff was great and room service did a wonderful job of cleaning. The parking lot: however, needs to be resurfaced as we had to dodge all kinds of big holes everywhere just to get in to park.

Everything smells like smoke, had to ask for new blankets because the ones in room smelled. Pool and hot tub are closed and seems like they have been for some time.

Smelled bad and was shaddy

Breakfast was the worst I've ever seen. White bread only for toast but no bagels, jelly or cream cheese. They were out of coffee so I had to go buy some nearby. No fruit or yogurt. Worn out carpets. Terrible
