I didn’t expect much going in as it’s on the older side of the interstate. It was however extremely clean in addition to being the best price in an area full of motel choices. I would definitely stay there again if I pass through the area.

OK for an overnighter

Hotel needs a facelift inside and out. While bed was comfortable enough overall the place felt dingy. They appeared to be working on painting inside of some rooms and hope outside will also get some attention. Person who checked us in was lacking personality.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We first got to the room upon a locking the door and walking in there are stains on the headboard of the bed. The dresser that was in between the two beds and the lamp that was on the dresser were absolutely filthy. The only thing that we’re clean were the microwave in the bed and the sink area. The bathroom was dusty in the toilet seat was peeling off so you had to use paper towel so you wouldn’t cut your butt on getting there. I did check the bed because the room was so dirty. The bed was the only thing clean and made up the pillow did not have strong support nor that the bed so back was definitely hurting when I called to ask if housekeeping can come and clean the room after leaving for the day, they told me that there was no housekeeper so it made me wonder. How did they clean the room? The only convenient thing about it was the dollar store being right next to the rooms so I can walk there but booking this last-minute trip and thinking it’ll sort to be a vacation was definitely an understatement. Do not stay at this hotel.

NOT A FAMILY PLACE!!!!

Completely disgusting. White smeared stuff on the mirrors in room, bed has white stains and burn holes, smelled like smoke although it was supposedly non smoking. We couldn’t even stay the night. Asked for a refund via Hotels.com, the Hotel refused to give a refund. I was not going to put my family in that situation, so we stayed next door at the Fairfield Inn and Suites. Do not book this place, you won’t get a refund. The lady at the check in was also completely rude. She rolled her eyes when we gave our key back and told her how it was gross.

Disappointed

I have stayed here before and had a decent time at this hotel, but this time I was disappointed because the front desk person was not friendly at all. She didn’t ask if I needed more than one key to my room. She only said the room was on the right side of the building. She also didn’t say that they didn’t serve breakfast I had to read it on a board in the lobby. Also upon checking out she didn’t offer a receipt she said you booked online and I had to ask for a receipt. It was only one night but I don’t think my family and I will be staying there again.

Stay way away from this crap hole

This was absolutely the worst stay we've been ever had. Advertised breakfast, but none. Dirty stinky nasty crap hole with rude attendent. We stayed a few days earlier at another Econolodge that was great. This place needs to be torn down and replace the terrible employees.

I had to fly down south in emergency because my great grand father was put in to hospice and this was a hotel near my great grandfathers’s home. The room had chipped paint, unclean floors, squeaky bed, knocking AC which kept me up all night whenever it decided to work. I spent more time in my rental using the ac then the room I should send you guys the gas bill it also had a missing toilet seat, a broken toilet handle, it kept over flowing and water kept coming out. There were a lot flys, a broken tv, dull lights, backed up tub I had to shower in ounces of water after only 20 seconds of the water being on while showering, bugs came from under the door I felt like I was living in an episode of fear factor and but instead of winning a prize I had to pay

Keep Driving

We were returning from Florida and stayed overnight. One of the beds looked like the sheets were never changed along with super wrinkled sheets. The sink had a yellow brown stain which looked like it was never scrubbed. The room was advertised as Breakfast included which it was not.
