We stayed at this Econolodge for two nights, September 6-7, 2025. The room was clean and equipped with a small refrigerator and microwave. The room space was adequate. I was disappointed that there weren’t any rooms designated as non-pet/animal. There is a coffee maker in the office, but tea and bottled water were not provided. Tea, hot water, and bottled water is standard in the places I’ve stayed.
