Econo Lodge Griffith Motor Inn

The motel requires considerable money spent on it to modernise and bring it up to contemporary [accessibility] standards. The only advantage to this motel is its proximity to Griffith's CBD. There is no allocated [accessible] parking, so its potluck if you park near your room. The reception is not accessible, and the only ramp from the carpark to the accessible room (room 110) is narrow, ill-defined and poorly maintained. Many of the features of the room are not accessible from a wheelchair (AC control, blinds, window in bathroom, clothes hangers) and the lack of powerpoints means charging a wheelchair is problematic. Overall, from a wheelchair perspective, there are several Griffith motels that cater to the mobility restricted guest far better than the Econo Lodge Motor Inn. However, the one staff member, Karen, was very helpful.

Comfortable, had everything we needed. Good location, close to shops and restaurants. Comfy bed, good shower, nice decor. Small sofa to sit on was nice. We were in Room 4, adjacent to car wash next door, quite noisy during the day - a room at rear of property may be less noisy. Hairdryer didn’t work, it looked very old.

Even though we had a so called “quiet room” it was any but, bathroom is out dated and so would be the plumbing as you can hear all of next doors showering.

It was difficult to use the mirror round 7-10 am in the morning because the sun shines into your eyes through the window. Also, there was no iron in teh room.

old and sad

Customer service and facility was excellent
