Arrived and the hotel was closed. The place looked like a ghost town, maybe three cars parked on the entire property including mine. Some random guy whom I assume lives there was smoking a cigarette by the door told me they would be back at 4 o’clock. I went to another hotel down the street that wasn’t closed. I later found Google reviews saying similar things. I highly recommend that Expedia as well as other travel sites pull this hotel from their websites.

I went in January of 2025. It was very cold and apparently the doors and keys were not working as they were frozen due to the coldness. They gave me a key to one room and it did not work. They said maintenance changed door locks so they programmed the key again from a different room for original room I was given and it still did not work. Finally, after saying I wanted my money back and I did not want to stay there they told me 7-10 business days to get a refund and gave me a different room that did work but it took me 2 times to push the door open. Afterwards it worked well. I was only there 1 night as it was just a stop for me. I did not use the shower or tub so I can’t comment on that. The sink was good with warm running water. The tv was analog so it was very fuzzy. I had to use my phone for movies. The microwave worked fine. The refrigerator felt too warm and I did not know which way to put the dial so I just used the freezer. Then defrosted my food in the microwave. The bed was ok. I slept but not overly great of course I have been to other hotels and some are equal and some are more comfortable. That’s hit or miss. The room was comfortable it had heat but it was automatic so when it went low it got cold quickly and the heat kept going on and off as it adjusted. I personally would only stay there again unless you want a cheap overnight stay. Take an extra blanket if you go in the winter months.

So so

Door card didn't work, twice. Ice machine broken. Sign said, "See front office for ice". Went to front office, no ice there either.Had to make another trip for ice. Tried to log on to two servers labeled HCL.(Horse Shoe Lodge?). No good. Called front office, they said log on to Econolodge. Could have told me that at check in. Little things. But simple things that should be standard. After a long day of travel and work, I just want to check in, log on, and enjoy an ice cold beverage without issue.

Great for a weekend!

We stayed for the weekend for a convention. It was a no frills place to sleep and we didn’t have a stopper in our bathtub for some reason. If you just need a place to crash for a weekend this is your place.
