I love all the ladies at Econo Lodge. The staff is very sweet, and helpful. Weekly rates are cheaper a night then anywhere else in town, and really nice rooms with comfortable beds. Nice quiet peaceful place stay, and close to everything in the middle of 231. I really enjoyed my stay here when I have nowhere else to go that's my second home

Nice hotel, dated, cheap. Room was clean enough, not new. Mattress was older spring type not foam but comfortable. Rolled in 11pm, got two rooms. Breakfast was just muffins and coffee. Coffee was good. Muffins, not so much. No complaints about what we paid for. Next door Julia's cafe was walking distance and pretty good buffet style breakfast.

This location had friendly and helpful staff. The room was of decent quality, though the only bad part was that the carpet was dirty, I do not mean it wasn't vacuumed as it was, the carpets just need to be steam cleaned. The continental breakfast was what you would expect with the addition of a pretty neat waffle making machine setup. The WiFi in this place was fantastic however.. with several kids streaming music and video it didn't even hitch, and that was with the hotel sold out with guests. Overall it was a good experience.

Staff was super friendly. My room was nice. I would say very nice until I walked into the bathroom area. Room was clean, the bed was huge and I was able to sleep like a king. There was few areas that needed improvement or updated
