Nothing fancy, but clean, convenient, and great staff. The breakfast could have offered more variety and healthier options, but it was good. Our room was by the pool so it was very noisy, but otherwise we were very happy with this facility.

Breakfast had no change in 6 days. only scrambled eggs, sausage, biscuits and bananas. No change in fruit, no bagels, no pastries no pancakes or waffles. OJ was like water. Room had no ventilation for the bathroom or the jacuzzi. Room steamed up and everyday the clothes felt damp. Had a court side room but only the door was court side, the window and most of the room was poolside, which was extremely noisy. Bad for people who want to get up early to hike because the pool stayed open until 11pm. It needs to close by 10pm! Coffee cups were never replaced by cleaning person. Son after day one we had no cups in the room for coffee or water. Staff was cold and indifferent. Supplied no information. Never was told when breakfast was, where to park or how to get to the room. Would never stay there again and will think twice about booking at an Econo Lodge again.

This hotel NEVER dissapoints. I have never had a negative experience staying here, the pool and hot tub inside are great and clean. Minus the random kids that jump in the pool against the rules and the parents dont make them respect the facility. But that is not the hotels fault its faulty parenting. But this hotel is always clean usually a decent value but my budget is sometimes too tight to allow for a stay but when i can its my go to for sure
