This hotel had pros and cons, so I'll start with the pros.  The bed and bedding seemed new and comfortable. Some of the furniture looked fairly new. There was a refrigerator and microwave. However, the cons were many. We were given no info at check in, like wifi password, breakfast info, etc. I didn't even have to show ID, or sign anything. The grounds were quite rundown (pool was closed but left open to the elements, garbage can tipped over, lights outside rooms were flickering on and off, maintenance panels were open in walkways). We had to park in the back of the building, but our room faced the front, it's an odd set-up. The bathroom was very old and crusty. There was barely anything to eat in the breakfast area, so we didn't even bother. At check out there was no receipt, I was told it would be emailed to me.  It felt like no one wanted to bother doing anything, so they didn't.

Run down

If someone with money could buy the building and remodel it right it could be very nice great location and views from the third floor but sadly it's going to waste. The price they advertise is a lie they do it to suck you in. 

False advertisement 

It was the awful things ever to ring with nasty tub stopped up with hair and dirt had to be cleaned out as I was going on
To clean the tub out i saw more spiders on the wall kill them that cops of boots and hair out of the bathtub drain they gave me one price of $105 when I got here it was $135 they said because it was past 10:00 they were told it would be around 11:00  before I got there and the man that was working said that it was going to be 135.00. Instead of 105 00 will never say here again no vending machines call front desk asking about the vending machines I said if you want any ice or drinks you hate her to the store and buy them for sale at the wrong

Awful experience ever

They will steal your money and say they gave you a refund when they haven’t it’s been 20 days! Lets start from the beginning my dad, my kids and, me was trying to get a room the employee PERRY (don’t know his last name because he wouldn’t give it) told us it was $90 well we paid $90 he gave us the room key we got in the car headed to the room. On the way to our room he’s waving us to come back down so we turn around and go back to the office. He then proceeded to tell us that the room was dirty and he didn’t have a cleaning lady on the property it’ll take 2 hours (witch was a big LIE because their computer system tells them when a room is clean or dirty and the cleaning lady was walking around with the cleaning cart lol). We was already tired from AirBNB playing with us so we told him we’d like to wait don’t refund it we’ll just come back we’ll as I’m saying that he hands me the refund paper and says it’ll take 14 days witch that’s all we had. Anyways we got help from family about 3 hours later we called and ask if Perry had any rooms available he said plenty well we get there and he proceeds to say it’ll be $180 we’ll they already had $90 so we just agreed because we was tired and fed up. Perry jumps on the phone and talks with a manager or someone and then tells us he couldn’t give us a room  (he checked in a family way bigger than mine right after when apparently there was no room available I guess he just meant none for my family and me)witch didn’t make a lick of sense. It’s been 20 days and I still haven’t received a refund and my bank said they haven’t released a refund to them so I called them back and told them that they’ve STOLE my money and it’s been way past time and my bank said y’all are lying about my refund so now I have to call corporate back for the 5th time and get them to give me my money back witch PERRY STOLE that’s exactly what he did and now he’s trying to say I canceled the room witch that would mean they could keep the money but that’s NOT WHAT HAPPEND Perry canceled my room and LIED about it all. I recommend you never ever ever stay here Perry is a  LIAR AND A THIEVE!  This has been the absolute worst experience I’ve EVER HAD with a hotel it’s pathetic how they treat people and how they can get away with theft makes no sense at all.

Perry is a thief thief

Person at desk was not nice and very standoffish. Why?!  I have no idea, bad day I guess, especially working there I can see why.  My other family warned us before getting there screaming on the phone to us as they got there first but the booking was nonrefundable. They left their room shortly after from the roaches starting to take over. Yes Roaches! We don't know if there were any other bugs because we didn't sleep in the room to find out after seeing the other room. This Econo is horrid. Just Plain dirty & reminded me of an abandoned building getting ready to be bulldozed. Oh, and the pool they have displayed and advertised  lolololololololol . Literally can't swim in it from the mold, dead animals maybe & feces polluted water to the concrete foundation being cracked up. Pool Couldn't have been used or maintenanced in a looooong time. I normally don't do this or write bad reviews, but this was warranted ;'-(. 

Horrid & needs to be bulldozed.

Booked for a 3 day tournament. Got in at midnight, the room was infested with bugs. Matress was stained brown, toilet barely flushed. Noticed significant safety violations the short time we were there. Lock on room door broken,fire alarm was disabled and stored in the drawer.  Tried to get a refund and was given the runaround because the desk couldn't approve a refund. Charged my card a second time the next day when I called to get a refund. Now I'm into them 240 dollars. Now I have to take time to dispute charges with card company. Ended up sleeping in the car across the street. The only plus, me and my teen have a funny story to tell at Thanksgiving.

Don't bother stopping here  better hotels are down the road

We stayed there for 1 night on our way to Florida.  The place needs an extreme remodel.  Ceiling paint in our room was flaking off and TV reception was very poor and internet WiFi access was very slow.  We were afraid to eat the free breakfast due to the condition of the rest of the hotel.  We would recommend for everyone to avoid staying at Econolodges.

Worst hotel we ever stayed at...

You're better off sleeping in the car.run down old  nothing works the door key card didn't work the door was stuck the smell of smoke overwhelms the room it irritated my throat. The air smells m moldy.we had small decoratived pillows for pillows a phone that didn't  work  remote had no batteries, the toilet looked like they came from a night club and  you couldn't pay me to take a shower in that tub I stayed for 2-3 hours and checked out. Pay that extra for Days Inn before you leave with a sore throat like I did

Days Inn is worth that extra dollar.

Do NOT stay here. I found bugs in the bed. Mouse dropping. Bugs in the ceiling. A dead spider under the pillow. Roach wings in the bed. Sheets were dirty. Pool is loaded with black algae. Thismplace needs to be shut down. I left 30 min after checking in and demanded my money back.

Disgusting filthy motel

I gave this place a few tries because it is right off I-65.. Rooms are dirty, sinks leak so bad they have garbage cans underneath. I stayed Dec. 31, 2018 and the next they wanted $99. to stay Jan. 1st  I have Choice elite status and left at 12 Noon and after I left they charged my credit card for another day and I called but they dont care. Call girls with pimps and drugs are available if that's what you want.
