Over the last several years we have watched this hotel go downhill. But this was our final stay. They switched check in to a video person, which you can barely understand, which in turn made check in a hassle and took three times as long. Right when entering the hotel we were greeted by mice running through the lobby and they now stopped providing conditioner and body soap (they still have shampoo!) in the showers. The beds have always been hard as a board but we continued to stay at this hotel because it was close to the venue we needed to be at. But this latest visit was the worst. This hotel has become disgusting and inconvenient. Despite the convenience of the location we would rather stay further away for a better hotel and we are even picky! Lol

Ok

Everything was good, except the hot tub was closed. I was pretty upset about that because it was wet and rainy and we got soaked on the motorcycle and just wanted to relax and unwind in the hot tub, but couldn’t. Breakfast was ok, didn’t have peanut butter, but the rest was the typical free breakfast items you would want.

Top Tier Econolodge, but missing a front desk rep

It was top of the line for Econolodge. I'd have given it 3 or 4 stars if there was actually someone at the front register. They have a weird kiosk thing, but it wasn't my favorite experience.

Useless machine and dirty rooms!!!

I have never seen or used a check-in machine before, and I found it to be very ineffective. It took forever to get checked in. There was someone at the front desk, so I don’t understand why we had to use the machine. I also had trouble understanding the staff member, despite the subtitles that were supposed to help. Overall, the machine felt completely pointless. Additionally, I found it strange that I had to show my credit card up close to the camera while they typed the information into their computer. There was a card reader available for use, so I’m not sure why that wasn’t an option. The place wasn’t even busy, which made the use of an online check-in machine seem unnecessary. Lastly, the condition of the room was disappointing. It was very dirty, especially the bathroom!

Dated but obviously updated. Couldn’t interact with a real person only a kiosk which is awkward but not necessarily a hindrance. Hot tub didn’t work which was disappointing and pool was super cold. Kids did enjoy that they offered cornhole and they had a selection of other games to offer. Breakfast was lackluster with only hot option of waffles and no protein sources.

Getaway Gone Wrong

Cons: The hot tub was out of order which really upset me because that was the ENTIRE reason I booked this hotel so I was super disappointed right away. Then our king size bed was rock hard and horribly uncomfortable so rather than feeling rested and rejuvenated from this stay, I felt restless and frustrated. The breakfast selection was bad as well… waffles, cold cereal, bagels … the cream cheese was sour. Pros: The place was clean and quiet. The room was spacious. The AC worked good.
