Not a bad stay, but this is an older hotel, not in the best condition. If i'd driven by first, I would not have booked the hotel.

Overall fine and comfortable at reasonable price, what you'd expect from an Econolodge. The shower was hard to operate as there was a very fine line between too cold and too hot.

NOT WHAT YOU SEE ON HOTELS.COM

We saw the room on Hotel.com Thought we got a great deal and the jacuzzi was included and wamted another $100 a night. The room smelled of mildrew and mold the beds were horrendous, didnt have the handicap access ability needed fot my grandons wheelchair. To a look around the room dust and dead bugs. The floor was flithy , you could see where it wasnt mopped up. Too much to add.

Upon check-in, I requested the return of my driver’s license after it had been taken by the staff member assisting me. He informed me that he needed to make a copy first. I asked for the reason behind this, and he stated it was “the policy.” When I asked where this policy was documented or explained, he replied that it was not written anywhere. He then added, “If you’d like, I can return your license and the copy, and you can leave. You may also call 911 or speak with the manager in the morning—he can explain the policy.” At no point was the policy clearly explained to me, nor was I shown any written documentation supporting this procedure.

Unusable WiFi, Curbside appeal is poor. Ok inside.

The internet speed was LESS THAN 2MB per sec, which is useless in this modern age. Epic fail. So I had to use my cell phone to create a wifi hot spot for my computer.
