The Econo Lodge is clean. The continental breakfast is quite good. There's pancakes, cereal, toast, yogurts. Very nice. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The mattress was comfortable but not of a quality that absorbs the movement of my husband turning over during the night. Good value. The workout equipment is tired and needs updating.

The staff was nice. Check in and check out was easy and fast. Although the floors were extremely dirty, the bathroom was coated with nicotine. The coffee pot looked like someone put powder in the back. The homeless people were relentless at asking for someone every time they see you, they are all around the parking lot. The drug dealers and prostitutes were yelling all night.... they had a upstairs room and stayed outside on the balcony/hall all night, well at least till at least 4am, thats when i passed out. Not to mention someone tried opening the door to our room at almost 3am. Felt super unsafe

Good basic lodging and competent staff. Flooring was laminate and kept clean. Bed was comfortable. Towels were threadbare. Fair amount of road noise in the morning. Located next to Omni hotel - great value for the location.

The service here was great, staff was friendly, and enjoyed the free breakfast. However, there was a lot of yelling and loud music blaring outside my window until about as late as 1 am. At one point I called the front desk because there was a group of people smoking and playing loud music right outside my room late at night.The night manager said he would look but I didn’t hear him come up and the noise lasted for another 40 minutes.

While the front desk staff were courteous and professional, the hotel's location sharing a parking lot with a liquor store meant there were often drunk men hanging around at all hours. If you aren't a solo young woman, this is probably not a huge issue, but since I was it made me extremely uncomfortable when coming to and going from the property. Also, while the bed was comfortable and sheets clean, something unspeakable had happened to the toilet in my room that I can only assume housekeeping forgot to check before clearing the room for the next guest. Due to the combination of unclean bathrooms (and the lack of attention to detail that it indicated) and the unsafe location, I would not stay at this location again. But for someone who is looking to save some money, particularly if they're a man or traveling with others, it might be a good option.
