Was not impressed with the property what so ever. There was urine puddles in the stairwell along with cigarette burns in all our blankets. Garbage and debris everywhere throughout the property. Gentlemen in the room next to ours was continuously smoking weed making our room smell as well as the walk way. Staff left a half bottle of shampoo on the counter. Reminded me more of a crack hotel than an Econolodge. Very disappointed.

Cheap price for a cheap motel. Just needed to stay overnight to get the kiddo moved into his dorm the next day. Ok...for an overnight stay, but definitely wouldn't stay longer than a night or two. Although the room appeared to be clean, the bedding smelled horrible. We had to ask the front desk for new bedding, but they were only able to offer new sheets as they were out of blankets. Nevertheless, the staff are very friendly and accommodating, and there are a few food places and a gas station within walking distance. An ok, motel, but I still wouldn't stay here more than a night or two. It served its purpose, but you definitely get what you pay for.

Staff was friendly. The evening clerk was still learning so I was charged again for my stay, however the morning clerk took care of it immediately by following up on my review before I even had to ask and followed up with the closing clerk so he was aware from now on as to what to check and not check. Cleanliness-wise, that was probably the cleanest tub I have seen in a long time. The linens were clean and fresh, and you could tell they took care of what they could to make the stay enjoyable.

Due to a cancel flight I was able to get the hotel to switch my booking to the following night. When I arrived at the airport I found that my flight coming into Lexington was going to be delayed approximately 2 to 3 hours. I contacted the hotel to let them know that I would be arriving between 2:00 and 3:00 a.m. Upon arrival I was knocking on the door and got no response. I then had to phone the front desk which I could see from the front door and it rang about 40 times. Then all of the sudden the front desk staff got up from behind the desk where they were sleeping on chairs that were put together like a bed. He answered the door in his socks. He then couldn't log into the computer to get me my room. Eventually he called his manager. Then I got into my room only to find that it was a smoking room when I specifically requested non-smoking because I have asthma. There were no other rooms available for the night so I had to stay in this smoking room. I was very disappointed in the process of checking in the issue with my room. I did not have time to be finding another hotel at 3:00 a.m. when I had to be back at the airport at 11:00 a.m.

2 day stay while on a road trip
Check in was efficient and friendly. The room was clean and room service was efficient. The property is older and showing some signs. Unfortunately the bed cover had a number of cigarette burns in it. We borrowed a hair dryer which seemed to have a problem with cutting out. Overall this motel is far better value than others where service comes second to looks.

You get what you paid for. Room was clean. Very dated. Breakfast was continental. No coffee maker in room. Nothing great, but it was ok.
