The pics are stock pics and not of the property. No breakfasts unless you bring your own. The floor in the bathroom had water on the floor both nights I stayed there. The bed was comfortable though, and that was the important part, I think.

Don't do it

I have no problem staying in older, economical motels. Just having your car outside your door is nice. And honestly, all you need is a shower and a nice bed, a TV. This place had none. And it was much more than just dirty. It was neglected. I moved the desk away from the wall, where I found a circa 1990 cable, it's connection had been twisted off years ago. The dust bunnies were stuck in a build-up of spilled goo. There were several flies in the room, but the spiders took care of that problem. It didn’t seem unsafe, the property was fenced, I'm assuming it kept the crime away from the decent neighborhood nearby. The 3 a.m. screaming match in the room next door spilled out into the parking lot, and I've actually learned some trending cuss words.
If you are reading this, thinking you'd like to go to the casino, it's the closest motel and really, you only need a shower and a bed, don't do it.

Roach infested

We walked into our room and there were roaches crawling all over. We left within ten minutes and the man on duty couldn't help us, said we needed to call and talk to the manager about a refund who we could not get ahold of. Do not stay here!

Spend a few extra coins

The hotel got the job done because I needed somewhere to sleep for the Ohio State game. But I would not choose this particular one again. Its dated, and the room I had, the television did not work. The walls were paper thin and you could here the locals all night. Plus a $100 deposit for this location is absurd. Save yourself some time and spend a few extra coins for another hotel.

Hotel had full power afgee but front desk claimed he couldnt check anyone in. Property Beyond ridiculous and unacceptable in 2025 that a hotel has an outdated system with no power backup. It took nearly 2 hours to find a new hotel, because Expedia customer service was so slow. The only saving grace was a feeling of this property being in a very unsafe secluded area off the highway. Terrible all around experience.

Ghost reservation

If negative stars were an option I’d go there. Even though my reservation was paid and confirmed for, the front desk associate was unable to find my reservation and couldn’t was hard to understand due to his thick accent. The rules page on the desk had half the words spelt incorrectly and the space seemed unorganized. The desk associate also didn’t offer and assistance into finding us another place to stay. Even if they were full, I would’ve appreciated him to tell me and not have to ask. And also giving recommendations for places close by. Never booking an Econo Lodge again!

Two stars for micowave

They didnt have a room available when I arrived at 2 pm, which I understood. I told the clerk I would not be back until after midnight. When I returned, the night clerk asked me about my earrings and why do I have more than one piercing? He asked me if i was staying in the room alone in a professional manner, but it felt creepy. He gave me wrong directions to my room. Then I discovered a bit later that he had neglected to return my ID. I had to go ask for it. It was still in the copy machine. The room could use a good scrub. If that dirt doesnt scrub off, then the doors and frames need to be replaced and the walls painted. I did not sleep between the sheets because they were soiled. The only good thing about the hotel is the location next to the freeway and a Waffle House. Go see Angie!

It's a really sketchy place. First if you don't pay super close attention, you might easily miss the entrance, and turn in onto the highway. There's no extra staff besides the front desk. In case you need help, she just declined unapologetically. The chain lock is missing at least for my room. If not for the cheaper price, definitely not worth staying at all.

The room was adequate but the front desk questioned me as to if I would be staying in the room. When I said yes, they asked if I would be there all day. No, I said I worked. They said they "didn't want me in and out"
On the day of check out they started calling at 9:00 to say what time are you leaving. I said check out is 11:00. They said "Can you leave now so we can clean?" when I said not they called every 20 minutes to ask if I was leaving yet.

I booked my room through hotels.com and was supposed to pay cash on arrival. I arrived after work and driving an hour at 4am only for the clerk to tell me there were no rooms that i need to contact hotels.com and get my money back because they charged my bank card. I then drove around until 5am looking for another vacancy and ended up paying double what my already booked room was. Now i have to try to figure out how to get my money back. The clerk was absolutely rude and offerd zero resolution as he walked away from the window and left me in the lobby.

Additional information

I had one major issue. I paid for the room before arriving and upon checking in the clerk had me sign and issued me the key without asking for my credit card. I figured this was because it was on file. Later at 1045pm I was notified of an additional charge. The next day I spoke to the manager who stated that a deposit was charged and that their policy states this. I let him know that the clerk did not let me know that is was going to be charged later that night and their posted policy does not state that it will be charged late, after check in. Some hotels that have a deposit policy don’t charge customers who prepay so it should have been stated upfront during check in. He acted as if what I said made no sense and that it doesn’t matter when it clearly does. Overall, you get what you pay for but I need all the information upfront—no surprises!

No towels in the room, and I had to go get them from the front counter myself. Mini-fridge leaked a puddle of water onto the floor tile which was buckled from having this happen over and over again. I received no response when I reported this to the front counter person. The so-called free breakfast was a joke. I will NEVER stay at another Econolodge in my life.
