    No bugs, right off the freeway, a lot of free parking. PLEASE READ before booking with this motel....I booked with a credit card, when checking in the clerk was all over the place, she said you paid with a credit card and here is your key card. At 7:30am the next day our motel phone was ranging, we did not answer it. 8am someone was banging on our door, my husband answered the door and some guy said YOU NEED TO GO TO THE OFFICE, YOU NEVER PAID LAST NIGHT. So I went to the office and the lady said oh it was a mistake. WHAT? So I asked for a receipt, for proof that we paid. We got to our room around 9pm and until 3am it sounded like someone was slamming a door every 15 minutes. THERE IS NO BREAKFAST, they had 1 sliced bread in zippy bags, cereal in big container and a toaster. I booked a queen beds and the beds were a full. The 2 chairs in the room had alot of stains all over them. I learned a lesson a low score on booking has a meaning, moving forward only 8.0 or higher for us !

    There wasn’t breakfast that we knew of. Didn’t know.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    It was cheap! I still feel i over paid. The location was decent. It looked like someone had kicked in the bathroom door more than once. The tv didn't work, no smoke alarm, their was wires hanging out of the ceiling where it should have been The bathtub had been painted and was very slick to shower in.

    The housekeeping staff didn't speak English and shown up at my room 45 minutes before check out asking when we were going to leave.

    The lady at the front desk was perfect and accommodating nice even though I saw other staff yelling at her, she took it as professional as she could with customers around. The housekeeping staff didn't speak English and shown up at my room 45 minutes before check out asking when we were going to leave.

    I arrived in the evening there were people hanging around outside the building partying. That's fine but, at 11 things were still noisy such as people revving their car engine and fireworks being set off. The floors were dirty and I don't think the sheets had been changed as I found someone's wallet the next morning between the mattress and wall under the pillows. How was this missed if they changed the sheets. My covers had burn marks as well as the tub. I never saw a continental breakfast either. I did mention these things to the desk clerk and she refunded me $15. I think I will stay somewhere else next time. Econo Lodge you need to do better. Your staff was great but, your place needs some updating.
