missingWrote a review on Oct 15friendly staffconvenient locationtroublesome elevatorsquestionable cleanliness
Though the staff were friendly and the location was convenient, the overall condition of the hotel left much to be desired. The elevators were troubling, cleanliness was questionable, and amenities often fell short. It's clear that this establishment is due for significant upgrades to improve guest satisfaction.

I spent one night at the Econo Lodge and appreciated the staff’s friendliness. They were responsive and eager to help whenever needed. The location close to the convention center was super convenient, making my travel easy. My room had a comfortable bed, which was a nice surprise after a long day. The waffles at breakfast were fun to make, adding a little enjoyment to the morning. However, the hotel had many issues. The elevator was broken during my stay, which was a hassle since I was on the fifth floor. The room itself was not the cleanest. I had to put towels on the furniture before sitting down. There were stains on the walls and the sheets were not fresh. Additionally, the breakfast options were lacking. the juice was noticeably off and the coffee maker in the room didn't work. The overall decor felt outdated. A few updates could really enhance the stay.

The lobby felt cozy, with warm colors that greeted me like an old friend. It had easy access for me, which made navigating through the hotel a breeze, even after a long day of exploring.
Update the carpets for a fresh feel.

Staff was helpful but the place needs attention
During my stay, I found the staff to be friendly and responsive, which made a positive impression. However, the overall cleanliness of the room left much to be desired, with issues like mold in the bathroom and a general feeling of neglect throughout the hotel. While I appreciated the convenient location, I believe the hotel requires more thorough maintenance and an upgrade in its standards to ensure guest comfort.

We had a great family time exploring the nearby golf courses, which were a fun break from the hustle. The staff were super welcoming and managed to keep our spirits high, even with the busy Irish Fest crowd. Our room had a cozy vibe, perfect for relaxing after long days.
My kids wished there were better dining options nearby to cater to picky eaters. The breakfast variety was lacking, and finding a meal that everyone liked was a challenge.

missingWrote a review on Aug 07convenient locationwaffle stationeasy accessroom maintenance
Conveniently located near downtown, making it easy to access events without hassle. The breakfast offered a nice surprise with a make-your-own-waffle station, which added an enjoyable touch to the morning routine.
The room itself had its fair share of issues. stains on sheets and towels stood out right away. The TV provided only four local channels, and the window lacked a lock, which felt a bit sketchy. The beds were smaller than expected, resembling twin XL sizes rather than double, which might not suit every traveler's needs. Plus, the walls were thin, allowing for noise interruptions, and the overall maintenance seemed lacking, with old mattresses stacked outside and visible signs of wear throughout the facility.
