Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The beds were comfortable and the location off I40 was handy but the ice maker was out, the water pipes sounded like a drill when someone turned them on and the elevator was out. My first and last time staying at an EconoLodge!

it had a bed but, the property was pretty beaten up and old. Lamp in my room had a strange stain on the shade and smelled very strong of curry from I guess the last guest that was there. Staff were sweet and helpful

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The best thing about my stay was the helpful staff and a cheap place to get a good nights sleep. The room never cooled down even with the AC running at full power all night, and the room smelled wet/moldy. The bathroom had actual mold and the toilet was not secured to the wall. There were very few places to plug things in. The elevator and ice machine were not functional. Breakfast was minimal.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Rooms were in very poor condition, bathroom especially. Blankets on the bed were stained and no tie back for window curtain to keep the HVAC unit from just blowing the air up the curtain. The breakfast was fair, as far as hot meal went, other selections were good.

A clean, quiet hotel with friendly staff. Check-in was painless. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was somewhat lacking, but more than made up for by a hot shower and a good nights sleep. I’d stay here again if passing through the area. A bonus, they let me park my motorcycle right by the entry so it would be visible on their security cameras.

A clean, nice place to stay with helpful staff, good breakfast (sausage and eggs, etc.). Air conditioning was moderate; it was off when we got there. Turned it on, went to dinner, and it was beginning to cool upon return. Didn't get really cool until midnight.

The breakfast was not great, they need condiments like ketchup, hotsauce. The air in our room worked good and kept it cool. The bed was super comfortable and the room was okay just a basic room. I would like to say the lady that checked me in was exceptional, she was so nice and friendly.

Great day like always. Service is second to none. Morning breakfast is fantastic. If they’re out of something, you’ll let them know and they have it out in minutes. I highly recommend this hotel. And did I tell you the staff is fantastic?
