The room was good. The bed were comfortable and we got a good night sleep. The only thing that happened was a loud jackhammer sound at about 3:00. Don't know what it was or where the sound came from. It was just once and we went back to sleep.

The air conditioner worked well, the room was basic but adequate for our needs. The registration desk staff member was polite, efficient and friendly. Room 217 is in need of maintenance in the bathroom area. The staff were informed. If you're looking for a very basic place to rest for a night, the Econo Lodge will meet your needs. Don't expect any more than that.

Good for a place to sleep

Location was clean, quiet, and the bed was comfortable. The other furnishings in the room were damaged (hot items on the wood) which game them the semblance of being unclean but they were fine. We just needed a place to sleep for the night. Parking is a bit squashed and there's no turn around in the back, so just be aware of that. Otherwise, a nice place to park your bones.
