The staff and room were nice, but the tub was partially filled with dirty water. And there was a piece of cardboard between the fitted sheet and mattress of my bed.

Shower handle holder broken so had to drape cord around handle on side of wall because if I turned off shower to use soap it would take time to warm the water. Weak toilet flush would not dispose of immediately and could not flush again but toilet tank did not refill until after a few minutes. Would have to go back and flush again. Filthy way to dispose of waste products. Definitely will not stay at this facility again or any other econo lodges elsewhere. I have stayed at serveral hotels and by far this is the worst. Now understand why the rates are so low because that is the only thing that brings the customers to that site. Would rather pay more in the future. This was the first time that I have stayed and an econo lodge.

The floors in our room were filthy dirty. The breakfast ran out of food at 8:30. No one to restock. When some one did come 9am she took out garbage. Coffee was out too. People poured cereal only to discover no milk. No one found at front desk. At least 15 to people left without food. Very sad for one family. Kids all had sad faces

Below average

It served as a place to get a few hours of sleep before continuing on our journey! Smelled of smoke, floors were dirty and sticky in our room. Didn’t shower because it looked dirty.

Dirty, public hair all over bathroom, fridge full of previous person's food, mold, stains on the sheets...I could go on. I left photos with the front desk when I checked out. She stated managers would follow up with us. That never happened.

Even though this May not be a five star hotel the staff are excellent and do their very best to make you a comfortable as they can. There were only minor inconveniences that aren’t even worth mentioning. I would stay there again.
