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 Property Beyond ridiculous and unacceptable in 2025 that a hotel has an outdated system with no power backup.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.

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!

Bed was small. Ordered a queen bed it was barly a full size. I rolled off in the middle of the night. And i bet im not the first person to do so. The night stands are on the other side of the room so that you dont hit your head. Lots of bugs in the room. Looked like cockroach.

This was a strategic location during a bike ride. It was filthy. Even the tap water to fill my water bottle was brown. I reserved rooms with 2 beds and was told day of arrival they only had single bed rooms. Didn't care about our needs. Spend a few more dollars and be happy someplace else.

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.

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.

My person showed up and they said the reservation was no good. We had to purchase another room. The desk clerk was very rude and not much to say for a personality. Refused to allow my driver to take or make a call in the office. Would not only not recommend this place, but would recommend people NOT to go there..

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!

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!
