Attempted to stay at my old favorite motel in which the previous management treated me as a wanted guest for more than a decade. This time, there was no breakfast and the wife said there has been problems for over 2 1/2 months with guests complaining about the Internet. The wife finagled for service, but it promptly disconnected. When the husband was told, he appeared agitated and scary and suggested guests could leave if they didn't like it at 11: 30 pm. I checked out the next morning and paid extra to have Internet, breakfast and a nice, clean room with 100 TV channels at another hotel. I couldn't see the small TV from the far away bed with a few TV channels. Clothespins hold the curtain shut; e A/C is noisy and difficult to regulate. I will not be returning.

No Internet for over 2 months, no breakfast and rabid manager

Very pleasantly surprised at the accommodations for only $89 a night. Not the nicest, but well worth the price. Highly recommend Mary’s Diner for breakfast after your stay ! It’s just down the road from the econo lodge.

Worth the price

CLEAN little two star hotel in a great location! Very basic but safe and close to the freeway. Lots of local restaurants nearby. Less than half the cost of many area hotels. Friendly staff. We will be back.

Nice discovery!

The female host was very nice. The room was clean. No coffee in room. You could get a smoking or non smoking room. There were a mini fridge and microwave in my room. And the usual toiletries. A little off the beaten path. Great breakfast at Mary's very close by, so you don't have to resort to fast food.

What you see is what you get

I have stayed in better places and worse places. For the money and close to the highway, it was what I needed for the night.  I did not have high expectations for a hotel for less than $60. I wish the breakfast had a bit more food.

For the price, it’s what I expected

We booked a room with a king size bed 2 days in advance. Upon arrival, the owner gave us keys for a room with 2 double beds without mentioning anything about a change in room type. When we came back to the reception after visiting our room and asked for a room with a king size bed, the owner said (very unfriendly!) that there was no other room available. The only alternative he offered was that we could get a refund and find another hotel. As this was not a realistic option at 8:30 PM, we decided to stay. We were not the only residents, as there were 2 spiders above the bed. Furthermore, there were hairs on the towels and the water coming out of the tap in the bathroom was brown. We have many good experiences with Choice hotels, but we will never go back here again. Please take this as an advice and look for alternatives!

Don't expect to get the room you reserved

Off the beaten track, very quiet and not much around for dining etc. Somewhat run down but clean. Bed was NOT comfortable - I could feel springs sticking up in places and did not get a good nights sleep.

Ok for one night but somewhat run down

The man that works there is so rude. We tried checking in & gave him two chances to book us a room and leave us alone AFTER he chucked my ID at me. He charged me for a room I never stayed in. I'll be disputing the charge but don't put yourself through the nonsense. He is rude and mean and aggressive. I will never stay at econolodge again. You couldn't pay me to stay there.

Horrible! Save yourself the trouble and find another hotel

We were on a lengthy motorcycle ride and it was getting late in the day when we happened upon this motel.  The room cost us $72 for the night.  If we'd have taken a look at the room, especially the bathroom, we'd have packed up and checked out right then.  The bathroom floor was gross... mold in the corners, stains in the commode, just not clean and the wall covering was pealing away from the dry wall all over the place (I suspect from the excessive moisture due to lack of a vent fan in the bathroom).  We were so tired we decided to stay the night anyway and then discovered the bed(s) were as hard as rocks and one of them had sand (or something like sand) in it.  The entrance door to the room took super-human strength to open or close and there was no security chain on it.  When morning came we didn't even avail ourselves of the free breakfast, we just packed up, checked out and vowed to (ourselves) never return there.  To anyone considering staying here for the night I would advise them to take the extra time and find a nicer place.  The good points about this motel... well-lit parking, good water pressure in the shower, friendly staff and the TV worked well.  I have only stayed in one motel worse than this... in Buena Vista, Virginia.

never again

We were driving through Poconos and suddenly it was foggy. But I also noticed that there was really only one smoking room right next to the highway and there was no other room nearby, and so I booked there at 9 o'clock via the choicehotels website. It was shown that there were only'smoking rooms' available, but when we got there we didn't see very many cars in the parking lot and asked for details about a non-smoking room. But I also realized that there was really only one smoking room - like it was overbooked!?! There are 2 buildings with 24 rooms each (two floors with 6 on each side - No. 100-106, 107-113). But when we got there, I didn't see any other cars available but there are only 5 cars and 3 on each other. But all of the rooms were checked out and all the rooms were used to a different level of detail. But I had to say that we were not going to see anything else, but we were going to see the coffee and the coffee, and then we could not see anything else, but we were going to have a lot of problems with the coffee and the coffee
