I had to ask the staff for a cup, any cup, for water. The shower curtian was moldy and stained. No breakfast or even a cup of coffee. For the price it was the worst ever.

This hotel is the worse one I’ve ever stayed at. The room and bathroom was dirty. The bathroom is in desperate need of renovations. The beds were uncomfortable. They reminded me of pullout couches. I was unable to sleep do to the noise of the traffic 10’ from the window. Not to mention. The couple arguing outside the window. I felt very unsafe staying at that hotel. I wouldn’t recomend this place to anyone. I would also advise hotel.com to remove econo lodge from their web site. I also spoke to another couple that were leaving the same time as me and they were very unhappy with this (DUMP) as we called it.

The facility is run down. There are gaps around the window that allows vehicles that drive by to be heard in the room. The heat/AC unit under the window makes a lot of noise when it kicks in. The wood plank floors were dirty and sticky. The desk clerk was always behind a closed door and had to be summoned bringing a doorbell at the front desk. No one monitors the front door which means anyone can walk in at any time.

Barely any other people there and they didn’t have the room I reserved. Front desk staff was sitting playing on their phone and looked bothered by me trying to check in. People yelling in the hallways at all hours of the night was disrespectful. Will not be staying there again.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was dirty. The first room they gave me had a window wide open that wouldn’t close. The guy at the desk changed my room. In this room the tv didn’t work. After many tries he was able to turn it on. The tub didn’t hold water. Coffee maker had used pod in it. Tables hadn’t been dusted. Absolutely awful hotel.

Tried to charge me again for the stay, when I inquired about having paid through Expedia and showing him the reservation, he conveniently found it and no longer required payment. The hotel room was disgusting, the floor was not swept the bedding was dirty, the blanket had cigarette burns and it smelled really bad. If I did not have small children with me I would have skipped the stay and kept driving.

The floor was filthy. Like it was never swept for a few days. Everthing was beat up and broken looking, but amazingly they did work. There was coffee and clean towels.

I understand the hotel is under going a remodel and I appreciate their desire to upgrade. I was not happy that the toilet seat was cracked and pinched you. There was a blood stain on the shower curtain.

No frills, gets it done.
Don’t expect the Ritz. The Hotel served its purpose for our stay. Clean room, fresh towels, a place to sleep. Staff was friendly and helpful. Cost-effective. Convenient and close to downtown. A little noisy next to the highway. But having the air conditioner on that worked well took care of that.. I would stay here again.

I wish I could submit pictures. Location and atmosphere is what concerned me. I am 70 traveling alone. When I made reservation, I didn't realize the room entry was from outside. I worked through Expedia to cZncel room and rebook in another hotel. Expedia was good to work with but Econo Lodge would not refund. The online pictures were nice but misleading...it said free parking connected to a shopping center....WRONG.. it sat in the middle of the interstate off ramp .area surrounded completely by road...look at it from google maps. I should have read the reviews first ...scary I cannot comment on the rooms, cuz I wouldn't go in. Look at pics on Google. I would recommend Expedia remove them from options
