We pulled in and there were people sitting outside their room with a small grill. From the looks of their room I think they lived there. There were also 2 people milling around the parking lot which seemed unsafe. We decided not to stay here based on those issues.

Nice room, bad area.

The room was great, but the area was ghetto. Something is bad if you need security glass at the lobby desk. The smell of weed coming through the ac didn't help either.

What you typically would expect for an econo lodge... it did the job. However, the "included breakfast" is a joke. It's granola bars.
