Econo Lodge

The hot tub was completely out of order, and breakfast amounted to coffee, despite the man at check-in telling me there’d be pastries and coffee in the morning. At checkout I asked where the free breakfast was, and the woman said there wasn’t one. The sheets had stains and smelled odd, the walls were thin enough that we heard gunshots nearby at night, and there was no continental breakfast. For just a little more, $20 or $30, you could get a real hotel. This place wasn’t worth the small amount I paid. Don’t advertise free breakfast if there isn’t any.

The front desk took my money and caused a major headache. I checked into the room at 8:45 am, took my bags up, used the bathroom, and finished eating the breakfast I’d brought. I was in there ten minutes at most, then went to the store and picked up a girlfriend. When I came back, the employee started flipping out, saying I’d told him I was alone. I said she wasn’t staying, and he threatened to call the police. I asked for a refund because I wasn’t going to stay, but the amount went from $75 to $100 to $104, even though my total was $159 and some change. Avoid this place if you can.

The carpet had an oriental taste, the pillows were amazingly chewy all the way through, and the walls had their own blend of flavors. Even the toilet paper had the perfect texture and went down easy. Highly recommend, the best!

The room was two-star at most, with dirty floors and a few outdoor bugs crawling on the walls. The location deserves one star from me, and that’s as far as I’d go. The staff were extremely rude from the start and didn’t follow the online booking policy. Then they added $22 to my bank charge, claiming it was for extra people. We didn’t have anyone extra, though they said they had video. I’d pay $22 to see these supposed visitors. It felt like bait and switch: they changed the reservation to make another buck and came up with a lame excuse. Another family we encountered had the same problem, with the hotel not honoring the online policy. Customer courtesy gets minus ten. Look elsewhere, this place will try to scam you and say you had extra people in your room.
