We booked a room at EconoLodge and got a free upgrade to a room at the QualityInn, the nicer rooms in the same building, which was great for our family stay. Staff and service was excellent. The building itself is aged and needs better ventilation for the rooms, hallways, and breakfast area. Nice and quiet location with lots of parking.

Very good place for the rate. It was easy to locate and had close dining options. Stairs to the 2nd floor were kind of steep but for me they worked fine.

The breakfast was terrible, cold and congealed. The property had trash everywhere. There were roaches in the bathtub. It is an inexpensive hotel but I would not stay again.

It is an older hotel and you get what you pay for but our bathroom was dirty and the shower drain was very very slow and toilet as well. AC was ok but could be a little stronger. Breakfast was ok but limited on choice by the time we got down to it.

Room was clean and smelled clean. The hallways needed to be vacuumed. The AC unit worked well enough but the room was humid. Quiet location and we did sleep well. Breakfast was better than average. The check in process was efficient.

Great staff very helpful. check-in was fast and easy. Love the convenience of the parking lot door. Rooms were very clean and well put together. He had all the amenities you needed. Breakfast was good. The coffee cup was a little tiny, but you have a coffee maker in your room. Very happy with my stay g I will be back....The only thing I didn't like was there were a lot of cigarette butt out in the parking lot.

The initial check in is confusing but our room was fine. We traveled with our daughter & dog & we had an entrance interior & exterior which was nice. The exterior can use some major cleanup but inside was good! Room was good but the frig didn't work.

We stayed one night. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone there were cigarette burns in our sheets ,people that obviously live there, it is very dingy and out of date there was a quality inn and suites connected, which looked like it was a little bit better condition. For spending $145 I would’ve expected more. I was close to going back and asking for our money back before we even unpacked our bags.
