We were in town for a football game. The room charge was way overpriced at $350 for one night. The room was horrible and the bathroom was dirty. Needless to say, we got a refund and went to a different hotel.
My partner and I love this hotel. The staff is super friendly and always accommodating and it is tucked away and quiet. Water is hot, beds are comfortable and WiFi works very well for my firestick. Highly recommend!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
I had not stayed at a low end property in a while. Had to stay because nothing else was available. Amenities like bed, towels, toiletries etc were low end/ worn.
Had I not been with 3 grown men I would have stayed in my own vehicle. Very nasty and rude staff. It’s the worst motel I have stayed in. And will be leaving reviews in places more people can see
Great stay! Will be using them again! Rooms are clean and housekeeping does an excellent job of changing out trash daily, providing clean towels daily and making the bed daily.

Econo Lodge Stay
I was a little dissapointed in the condition of the room. It was clean, but old looking. The wash cloths were stained and there wasn't a hair dryer nor an iron in the room. The bed was very comfortable. Probably the best sleep I've ever had in a hotel.
Got there had to wait for a room my check in was at 2 couldn’t check in until 2:15 no rooms was available or ready plus my room had no hot water had to switch rooms on the last day of my stay
It was your average Econo Lodge. If you're in a bind, it works. This one is older, a little run-down (no lampshades, leaky a/c) with questionable stains (floor, bed cover, furniture) but I had to remind myself it's the Econo Lodge. I didn't feel unsafe and the towels seemed clean and the water was hot but it definitely could use a makeover.
Definitely not worth $100 a night, bathroom was dirty, cigarette burns in the pillow cases (in a no-smoking room) and there was rotting greens in the mini fridge
Terrible. Room was dirty, bed spread was stained and had burn holes in bed spread. Walls had cut out wall missing. Bathroom baseboards were dirty bathtub had rust stains, and a crack in floor of tub. Magnets no longer worked in shower curtain so I would blow it to the tub and allowed water
To splash all over.
This hotel is in a good location and is ok!
It has gotten some bad reviews but the people that I dealt with were nice and my stay was no different than any other place I’ve stayed except a lot CHEAPER!!!!
It is a good value. It's a very basic hotel that is clean and has some updates. It was not that far from the campus and close to the interstate. The staff was very nice and helpful

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
When we first checked in, I called the front desk and asked for towels. Four hours later I had to call and ask again, and she told me to come to the front desk to get them.
When we got back to our room after the football game, our room smelled like weed.
We were expecting the pool to be open.
The only light that worked in our room was a lamp with no shade. We had to move it to the sink to be able to use the mirror.
The toilet ran constantly. The fridge did not cool. I put money in the drink machine and the drink dropped, but the door was jammed and I wasn’t able to get my drink out of the machine.
