Room was what you would expect for the price. Clean room. Hot water. Nothing fancy but a good place to stay if you are on a budget.
The room was good. The bed were comfortable and we got a good night sleep. The only thing that happened was a loud jackhammer sound at about 3:00. Don't know what it was or where the sound came from. It was just once and we went back to sleep.
It's not the newest or updated hotel, but it is clean, comfortable, and the staff is great. Price is good. I've stayed here a few times and will probably stay here again.
I did not stay due to the smell, It was very outdated and you had to walk an old set of steps to get to second floor
Staff was very understanding and nice

The guy upfront was super nice and funny. Gave us a discount on our pet fee also. Got us a room facing our truck and trailer so we felt more comfortable.
This stuff was very, very friendly. They recommend me a few of the attractions around us cruises. They were also very kind to me and reared me with a smile. I met the owner as well and he sounds very hi.We'll definitely recommend anyone staying here
the property looked good the staff helpful. The TV was new and someone had to come set it up but they were quick.

The air conditioner worked well, the room was basic but adequate for our needs. The registration desk staff member was polite, efficient and friendly. Room 217 is in need of maintenance in the bathroom area. The staff were informed.
If you're looking for a very basic place to rest for a night, the Econo Lodge will meet your needs. Don't expect any more than that.
Location was clean, quiet, and the bed was comfortable. The other furnishings in the room were damaged (hot items on the wood) which game them the semblance of being unclean but they were fine. We just needed a place to sleep for the night. Parking is a bit squashed and there's no turn around in the back, so just be aware of that. Otherwise, a nice place to park your bones.

It is an econoldge so I was not expecting much and this place was on point. Staff was great and the room wasn't bad but not great either. Air conditioner needed servicing it cycled on and off all night long.

very average motel. Convenient off the freeway. No housekeeping provided for the 3 nights we were there. Fine for a one night stay.
There was a big dead roach in the room. I asked to be cleaned and all they did was pick up the roach. They never came to clean the room. There were old food and drinks in the room, I’m guessing it was from previous guest. The only good thing is that it had a fridge and microwave.
