This place needs a total upgrade, inside and out. Plumbing, painting, decor, doors, bathrooms, carpeting, etc. It's in deplorable condition. The staff tried to be as gracious and helpful as possible, but I blame EconoLodge Corporate for neglecting this place for years!

There was people living in the motel. Kinda trashy! The room didn’t smell very good and it was very old. The women that checked us in raised her voice to my wife when asked about the dirty swimming pool. The only positive thing was the price per night was reasonable.

Two women were smoking right outside my window. Their talking and laughing woke me about 12:30 AM. I pulled the blind open and one of them looked at me. I thought that might be enough for them to take their conversation somewhere else. They did not, they continued making noise and made no attempt to allow me to sleep. I finally put some earplugs in and got some rest.

Check in was fine, until we got to the room and the cards didnt work, got new cards from front desk opened door, supposed to be no smoking room, smelled smoke immediately when you entered. Went to front desk to ask for diffrent room, non available. Had to reserve room at wyndom, way better. Econo lodge seemed kinda ghetto.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was a bit run down, to the extent that the outlets in the room would not hold plugs, some were even missing covers. The over head light in the room was there, but did not work. The smoke detector was removed from the ceiling and left on the dresser/tv stand with no battery in it. There was a hole in the wall and ever an area not painted where a picture may have use to hang. The beds were worn and even had cigarette burns in the covers. I will say it was clean, but hide sight being 20/20, I would have stayed somewhere else.
