Econo Lodge Review
Breakfast was simple cereal which is fine with us. Coffee is always a plus.
Thank you for providing breakfast.

Never Again
The room smelled like an old ash tray, even being a non-smoking room. The soap was used and put back into an old wrapper. We opened the window to help with the odor and it was full of cobwebs. It was very noisy until late in the night and if I could have found another place to stay, we would have gone. There was a concert a nearby town and no vacancies. I will never visit another Econo Lodge, anywhere.

The lady who checked me in was nice but a bit lacking in friendliness. Room was clean but had to request extra towel. Furnishings were a bit sparse. Only one soap and shampoo for 2 lodgers, etc. Lady gave us downstairs room which was very nice of her. Had to drive quite far from main route to get there.

Terrible
The bed was uncomfortable. It had cigarette burns in the sheets. We had no hot water for showers. The TV did not work advertise. There was cable there was not the TV was just fuzzy with no Internet connection. No nothing just a horrible stay here. We had no key to the room so we could not leave and come back. There was dark black hair in the shower. Neither one of us have black hair. The AC did not work properly. We had it all the way turned down and it never got comfortable in the room.

EcoNOooooo
Where to begin. As we approached our room, our door was wide open. We had to check the room to be sure no uninvited guests or critters had entered. Once we closed the door, we noticed a giant hair ball stuck by the security lock. Yum! The toilet needed to be wiped down. The shower was more of therapeutic. Think garden hose trickle. God help anyone taller than 5ft5. The shower head had you feeling like buddy the elf tall. The tv didn’t work at all. The mini fridge was completely off. Oh, the microwave was a nice touch. It was outside down the walkway where it was “communal”. The overall comfort depends on how well you can rest knowing crack heads are close by and wondering if you might get stabbed. I think I slept a solid hour. The continental breakfast spread was the final touch. The spread included 4 pieces of bread, two pastries and some cereal. All in all, I would not recommend staying here. Hope we didn’t leave with bed bugs, just some memories of our time at the Econo lodge.
I would recommend Freddie’s for dining. It was reasonably priced and delicious.
