The guy here was extremely friendly and made me and my brother and his wife’s stay feel very welcomed here! Very nice rooms pool was nice! Great hotel highly recommended
This was my second stay in last two weeks. The staff was very helpful. The manager on duty was very polite and helpful too. Rooms are recently renovated. It was nice and clean. Sheets were spotless. No sign of bed bugs. I don't mind to pay $60.00 plus tax for clean room and variety of breakfast. Definitely stay here in future.
One of the best Econo Lodge I've stayed in a long time! Very friendly staff rooms for clean and efficient and good pricing!!!
This place is amazing. Please don't be offended by the $100.00 security deposit. It's how they mitigate interactions between the local rifraff and paying customers. #The_Milfman
Raj at the front desk is a kind and caring individual. He pays special attention to each guest and their needs. He is thoughtful, observant, and attentive. He is always there to solve any problem that you may have. The hotel itself is beautiful, clean and gorgeously decorated for the holidays. Its very quiet here, so you will not be disturbed. The housekeeping staff is wonderful, kind and very thorough. They have DirecTV with EVERY channel! They have fresh coffee all day everyday. Both the heat and air conditioning work immaculately. They're located less than half a mile away from many gas stations and restaurants it's very convenient. It's also very secure so it's safe to bring your kids here. Every guest is treated like family. I would stay here again and again.
Front desk, Raj is a sweetheart. Super nice, helpful and friendly. Just wanted a room to relax and rest. Has all that is needed and is clean. Greatful for Raj.
Wasn't bad at all, no complaints! Coffee pot, coffee, in room. Quiet. The front desk people were pleasant and nice. I would recommend and I would stay again.
Friendly staff, tidy+clean rooms (Flooring , not old carpet) , plenty of hot water. Nice stay.
