This property is in a very sketchy section of town. I was told that it is "safe" to walk close by during the day, but not at night. There is only one elevator and the open walkways are split between floors. My sister and I returned to retrieve my luggage after she came in on her flight after determining this was not a safe location. At night, there were two security guards in the front, but poor lighting and no one in the area of the rooms. The clerk would not come out of the lobby and it was locked. Really substandard.

When we arrived, it was an unwelcome feeling. Although our room was already paid for the man made us show our credit card again. He also made a sign a paper we were assigned room 208 very surprised with the large facility that there were only five cars in the parking lot as we walk to the second floor. We noticed a man on the first floor with his door open shaving his head there was also another young gentleman in the parking lot that was watching us walk to our room. We opened our room and were greeted by a stain on the first bed and a bad smell. We immediately shut . We opened our room and we’re greeted by a stain on the first bed and a bad smell. we immediately shut the curtains and lock the door, feeling very uneasy, and in fact, unsafe after looking at each other, we decided we could not stay. It was not a safe place. We walked to our car and passed another gentleman who was pushing big boxes on a cart when we got to our car there was a man on the second floor that was just watching us. We felt very unsafe and this might not be a true hotel. Something else might be going on. I feel Econolodge should look into this situation.
