Good location, clean hotel, will stay here again.
Econolodge location was ideal location for our needs, visiting family. The hotel is clean and comfortable. Staff are friendly and accommodating. Did not register that this is a pet friendly property, so was wakened to two dogs barking at midnight first night. Doors on rooms slam shut and echos throughout the floor. Suggest ear plugs, as unfortunately some people seem to go back and forth to their room a lot. Breakfast is continental style and is what you would expect at a budget hotel. Liked the attached pub, had good food, and service.

Wifi was very very spotty - dropped 4 times in a one hour conference - not happy. This is super important to me - so will not stay again. Had to use the Moneymart free wifi from the location below me - to get any decent signal. Breakfast super basic. It is very clean and nice staff.

We could hear the music and noise from the restaurant below and someone came into our room at 4am in the morning using their key to get in. Our door was locked and we were sleeping when he opened our door. We couldn't fall back to sleep as we didn't feel safe and wondered if they'd be back.

I was told I needed to make a $200 room deposit. I explained that Expedia did not inform me but the attendant said that was standard. It is not. I have beverage had to pay a deposit. I was disappointed Expedia did not make that clear. The worst part of my experience was the exceptionally loud noise outside my window. That lasted until 2:00 a.m. I suspect that since I registered through Expedia I was given this room. It is the last time I come to this hotel and the last time I use Expedia.

Thank you for taking the time to review our property. We are sorry to hear that you were having problems with your lock. As you know the doors have two locks on them, 1 is a dead bolt the other one is for the key swipe. If you turn that one it locks the door from the inside and the front desk staff have to open it for you. We do have signs on the locks regarding this that you might of missed. We are sorry to hear you were not happy with your discount if you would like to contact the hotel to discuss this we would be happy to hear from you.
