I hesitated to book a room at an Econolodge. I wanted a room a at a budget price. This Econolodge provided us with a great room at a budget price. It was very modern and clean. The room was stylish and inviting. It could not have been nicer and compared to rooms at hotels costing much more. We highly recommend it.
