Room was what we paid for. It's no like 5 star experience but it was more than worth the money. Wife and I were terrified they weren't going to give the deposit back (we've heard horror stories) even tho the room was left pristine, but they got it back to us in a very timely manner.

Waiting for refund still! I stayed one night however still charged additional nights I did not stay. When I arrived and saw the stains on the sheets, the dirty/stained walls, black mold in shower, etc. Hotel is definitely a section 8 option. Horribly dirty and do not stay if you’re traveling. I contacted Expedia immediately and they contacted Econo Lodge got approval to cancel following nights. I checked out early next morning. To my surprise still no refund and I want to warn anyone who books third party do not stay there!

Every other hotel was over 400-500 a night - so grabbed this room at 150 a night - no breakfast included. Dirty, run down and at least six cars/trucks in the parking lot had people sleeping in them. Should have kept driving but we just drove 10 hours and needed a break.

It’s a rundown, worn off hotel with peeling or scratched paint, ancient yellow shower curtains half hanging off the rod, bathtub rusted around the edges, bathroom door not fitting in the frame. Not staying again ever. Better start driving home even if takes hours.

Mostly good

The parking was very safe. The rate was reasonable. The staff was friendly. The room was comfortable and smelled clean. The carpet and beds were clean. However, the bathroom had mold on the celing. The caulking was poorly done in the bathtub. The furniture needs replaced. The site was convenient for my needs.
