Served it purpose for a drive through one night stay.
Pros:

Easy access from highway

Cons:

Man door safety latch inoperative. While the property includes breakfast. The fruit basket only had two old shrinking apples. The ‘hot’ breakfast tasted like it yesterday’s leftovers barely warm and dried out.

They were quick to change our room once we requested the switch due to being not thrilled with the first one
Pros:

Close to where we needed to be for a tournament.

Cons:

First room was not great as it had a smell, the door didn't properly lock as well as joining room door was left unlocked prior to arrival.

Pretty decent value when what you need is a place to sleep and a decent breakfast
Pros:

It was surprisingly a very good value with a full breakfast with eggs, sausages and potatoes plus choices of bread and the rooms were comfortable enough, especially since if all you need is a place to sleep. There's an interesting mix of gas ranging from journeyman and contractors to people actually living there. But still a fairly interesting place.

Cons:

Bit it's a bit dated but for the price and the fact that it's clean, it's actually not bad at all. Honestly, given that it is an Econo Lodge and not something higher up the choice Hotel brand, it's much better than what you would pay for normally.

The amount I paid it was worth the stay. It was clean and quiet. Manager Bob was awesome.
Pros:

You got what you paid for. Good size room, with comfy bed. Couldn't ask for more.

Cons:

Workout room lacked, but it wouldn't deter me from staying there again.
