I hesitated to book a room at an Econolodge. I wanted a room a at a budget price. This Econolodge provided us with a great room at a budget price. It was very modern and clean. The room was stylish and inviting. It could not have been nicer and compared to rooms at hotels costing much more. We highly recommend it.

The wonderful couple that runs this hotel are truly wonderful. They love the community and want you to truly enjoy your stay… if anything is missing or you need extra supplies politely ask they are more than willing to accommodate. I’ve been treated so kindly while traveling with my children

Could use improvement to

Staff was very nice and check in was easy. The property is easy to get to and convenient, but very old and dingy. Walls are paper thin so it’s a bit noisy. Cost was a bit high for the quality of stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Was a quiet place to stay. Towels were all stained with something with an orange color to it. The lamp next to the TV was hanging off of the wall. Screen windows were pretty beat up from the looks as if someone was trying to get in at one point. Had some questionable people hanging around outside at night. Definitely lock you're vehicles.
