Econo Lodge Inn & Suites

Convenient location right off I-10 with Walmart across the street & numerous restaurants (Ruby Tuesdays recommended) within walking distance. I booked last minute and was quickly checked in by the cutest East Indian couple that are expecting a baby in January. The third floor double queen room was basic but clean, comfy beds, small TV, coffee pot, iron with full sized ironing board, desk with chair, 3 lamps with extra plug ins, microwave, mini fridge & working HVAC. The tub/shower is a little slippery so be careful or throw in a small towel to stand on. Bath was clean with 2 sets of towels, hair dryer, bar soap & shampoo. We questioned at checkin about security because we were pulling a trailer. They reassured us of the well lit parking lot and 12 outdoor 24 hour surveillance which they actually showed us the video screen. Impressive for a budget hotel. Saw no one loitering around outside. Breakfast 6am-9:30 was again basic but adequate. I highly recommend but don’t expect The Ritz at these reasonable prices.

We stayed one night and everything was fine; will use again! Saw negative reviews and don’t feel that it gives this place a fair shake. Yes they are remodeling in hallways but room was excellent. Staff friendly.

I am going to stick to the facts only and leave my opinion out of it. The gentleman who checked me in that evening was fantastic and very helpful. The room had many cosmetic issues and a few mechanical problems. There is not a hot breakfast at all, and what is there was not flavorful or it was expired. The morning staffs appearance was unprofessional and being that they also doubled as the kitchen staff, one of them had on a shower cap and no shoes, not to mention her child there as well. Finally, when I asked to speak with the manager they told me they were on vacation which is why this is being written on here. Sorry Choice Hotels but you had the chance.
