The hotel was not bad. Staff was nice. East check in. We had some questionable people staying on the floor under us. But we didn't have any problems from them. Area was nice. Stores and restaurants fairly close.

Very Outdated and loud motel
This place is very outdated. I can't say it wasn't clean, but it was very much in disrepair. The walls are so thin. It sits in between two roads; therefore it is very noisy. The door did not even seal good. You could see daylight. the Desk person was nice enough. No breakfast. I thought it said breakfast, but I was so tired, I couldn't tell you now.

The staff was nice, friendly, and prompt to handle issues. The hotel is old and could use more updates. I was extremely upset upon arrival but my feelings changed after the second day. Many locals live at the hotel. The beds are hard. The rooms smell stuffy and smoky. The bed covers have holes in them. But the staff was nice and helpful.

Worst place ever
When we came into the room the floor was super sticky, and the room had a nasty smell.
The few days we stayed you always had to close the bathroom because it was smelling like weed 24/7 , and we had a child with us . I will never book here again

This econo lodge is by far the worst experience I've ever had... the facility should be condemned the bath tub shower was loose to the foundation, very unsafe. Every time I flushed the toilet I had to hold the handle down for it to work and the sewer gases coming out of the drains was horrible, the door had been kicked in so many times it literally has a 1/4 inch gap halfway around it..
This place is at best a rundown crakhouse.
