Lake Trip

Very clean room and bathroom. It was quiet and the bed was comfortable. A wide variety of foods for breakfast.
ervin, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

We booked a room at EconoLodge and got a free upgrade to a room at the QualityInn, the nicer rooms in the same building, which was great for our family stay. Staff and service was excellent. The building itself is aged and needs better ventilation for the rooms, hallways, and breakfast area. Nice and quiet location with lots of parking.
Andy, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very good place for the rate. It was easy to locate and had close dining options. Stairs to the 2nd floor were kind of steep but for me they worked fine.
Vicki, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

It was cheap. But we found a bed bug, then left.

6/10 Okay

The breakfast was terrible, cold and congealed. The property had trash everywhere. There were roaches in the bathtub. It is an inexpensive hotel but I would not stay again.
3-night trip

8/10 Good

I really liked having two chairs in the room. I did not like that refrigerator was barely cool.
LaVonne, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Room was clean and smelled clean. The hallways needed to be vacuumed. The AC unit worked well enough but the room was humid. Quiet location and we did sleep well. Breakfast was better than average. The check in process was efficient.
Linda, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

It is an older hotel and you get what you pay for but our bathroom was dirty and the shower drain was very very slow and toilet as well. AC was ok but could be a little stronger. Breakfast was ok but limited on choice by the time we got down to it.
Jamie, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Dirty bath tub, yellow stain in it!!! No toiletries were provided!!! Very little selection of breakfast! Will never book again!
Wei, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great staff very helpful. check-in was fast and easy. Love the convenience of the parking lot door. Rooms were very clean and well put together. He had all the amenities you needed. Breakfast was good. The coffee cup was a little tiny, but you have a coffee maker in your room. Very happy with my stay g I will be back....The only thing I didn't like was there were a lot of cigarette butt out in the parking lot.
Pamela A, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Better than i expected!

The initial check in is confusing but our room was fine. We traveled with our daughter & dog & we had an entrance interior & exterior which was nice. The exterior can use some major cleanup but inside was good! Room was good but the frig didn't work.
Tonya, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Better then expected

The staff was very nice. The breakfast was surprisingly stocked and well attended to. Everything was clean. I slept very well. I will be looking into buying similar pillows. Bed was firm though as you’d expect. It is an old hotel and run down. It worked fine for our trip that had us gone a lot :)
2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Run down building. Needs a refresh. Countertop in bathroom peeling. Bed was so-so. Floor was not properly vacuumed. Bed was clean, however. Kind of icky.
Kristy, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Do not stay here if you have standards of a hotel

We stayed one night. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone there were cigarette burns in our sheets ,people that obviously live there, it is very dingy and out of date there was a quality inn and suites connected, which looked like it was a little bit better condition. For spending $145 I would’ve expected more. I was close to going back and asking for our money back before we even unpacked our bags.
