The property wasn't too bad The floor could I use to be moped again otherwise when you looked at it was pretty clean also the bed was kind of harder than what I'm used to but it wasn't that big of a deal I only stayed one night overall it was a pretty good stay
I don't recommend this hotel. The front desk requested me a security deposit charged in my credit card.
I left my room in the same condition that I received it, but they didn't give me the full amount of the deposit without any explainetion.
When we arrived, I was charged an additional fee to get the identical appointed room on the first floor. I was told that it was considered a room upgrade? My wife is handicapped and cannot do stairs very well. I had no prior knowledge that the reserved room was on the second floor. I reached out to Expedia and their reply was "take it up with the hotel". I already spoke to the hotel and had to pay for the "upgrade" or find another place to stay!
Very disappointed with Expedia and their lack of involvement with my issue. Please feel free to contact me to discuss the issue further.

I don’t think you want hear my review. I would never stay here again. The husband that helps run the place was very nice.
I won’t stay here again. There were no tissues in the room and the toilet paper was one ply so not much to blow your nose in. The pillow was hard, flat and smelled like used oil. The AC was good, I froze!

There were roaches on the property and we got charged a 25$ fee for early checkin, which i inderstand is probably policy but just a heads up. Other than that it was fine.
Tried to check in to my 2 queen NON SMOKING room that i booked and the owner rudely yelled at me and said that they don't even offer non smoking rooms. I proceeded to show him my booking of a non smoking room and he proceeded to yell at me. I then of course demanded a refund because that's not what I paid for and he refused and told me I had to go through Hotels.com to do so. Almost 2 weeks later, I have been denied my refund. Stay far away from this place and booking through this site. It's not worth saving a couple dollars and will cost you in the long run. I can only image what the rooms at this place would've looked like with somebody like that in charge.
When we checked in we asked for a first floor because neither myself nor my husband can climb steps ( I have severe COPD and my husband has a bad leg and can not carry anything up steps) she said they didn’t have any but she would double check. She then told us it would be $ 20 more for the first floor. Our room was paid for in full already . Then she said it is $ 20 in cash that it would be more to use a credit card . We had no choice because we have been driving for 12 hours. We do not recommend this place . It stank because no air was on bathroom is dirty.
We picked the econo lodge for a budget stay, as we were only in the room for a few short hours. The gentleman at check in was rude, and refused to give me a receipt—he was more worried about how many people were in my room and if we had a pet. Breakfast offerings were meager, but not of great concern for us. The biggest issue was my daughter waking up to a beetle crawling across her face. Definitely wouldn’t stay here again.
Rented two rooms for an overnight stop on the way to the beach. Rooms were dirty. And when I say dirty, I mean blood/bodily fluid on bathroom light switches and doors. A fast food bag sitting on top of a lamp. TV in one room didn’t work - didn’t try the other TV. I grabbed a washcloth and soaped it up, wiped down switches and door handles, told everyone to not touch anything and went to sleep for a few hours. If it wasn’t after midnight, we would have left, but we were too tired from driving. This hotel should not be allowed to operate under such unsanitary conditions
