Let me say that the man at front desk was super friendly, helpful and accommodating! He was great! The room itself was fine ... no frills ... in need of paint and updates ... but for an expensive overnight stay it was fine.

Great stay!

The guy who worked the front desk was really kind and polite. Anything we needed it was handled quickly and efficiently. There was no issues from any of the staff or the room itself.

The gentleman who runs the front desk from 1-9 was the best part of our stay. The room was clean and comfortable for the most part. There wasn’t really a lot of options for “breakfast” at this location but I mean it’s an Econo lodge. For the price, you get what you pay for. But the nice gentleman who works there really made a difference in our stay.

Double check if you reserve online.

The night shif clerk wasnt rude but not very friendly. We reserved a room qith Hotels.com for double bed and smoking. (It gave us that option and one of the reasons we chose this establishment). We only got a single bed and no smoking.

Good service.

The gentleman working when I booked called me to see if I had any special needs. He worked great with me to satisfy. I could of had a nicer room upstairs, but I am handicapped and can't climb stairs. He got me a room downstairs which was rough looking, but I told him it's fine. We only needed a place to lay down.
