This was an overnight stay on our way to Yellowstone. We booked non-smoking, but ended up getting a smoking room. We were told this was the LAST room they had. As non-smokers, the smell was very strong. Our room was on the third floor. There were two big windows. The window next to the bed had NO SCREEN and the... more

We had low expectations to begin with, because we had to book 2 rooms for 7 of us, so had to go for a lower priced hotel. To begin with, hotels in the area are ridiculously priced because of the 4th of July holiday. So, we have to label the price we paid as poor value. "Free" breakfast was awful.... more

The room we had reserved was called a "king suite with whirlpool". It had a whirlpool tub and a king bed, but definitely wasn't a suite. This was disappointing to us. It was also a very small room with barely enough room to walk around. The building is old and while it has been maintained well, it is definitely showing... more

Our reservation was made 4 months prior to our checking in. While I checked in my sister and her 2 grandsons looked at the pool. It was too dirty for even a 10 year old boy to want to swim in. Then we went to the 'non-smoking' room promised 4 months ago and found that the air was heavy with... more

Overall cleanliness was way below standard. We had to exchange blankets because of the staining that looked suspiciously like blood on the one that had been made up with one bed. The "Continental Breakfast" was below standard. High Speed Internet? Yeah ... in the lobby. No refrigerator, hair drier. Walls need painting. For the money, a bad deal. If you... more

I was expecting the worst when booked into Econo Lodge, but our room was a decent size, nicely decorated and quiet. The staff is friendly and they had a great pool with water slide which was quite popular. If you have kids, they will love the slide, although the pool and slide are so crowded, I would be concerned about... more

We travel about 3 weeks each year, and this is the worst hotel I have stayed in for many years. The hallways and stairwells were disgusting, very dirty and there was an odor. The room needed a good cleaning. We ventured down for breakfast and left - - the floor was sticky and the coffee was at about half strength.... more

We had 3 rooms. They all had a foul odor. One of the rooms had potato chip crumbs all over the bed. The hotel staff couldn't care less. The noise from the pool area resinated through our bedroom. The walls were paper thin and every sound outside could be heard as if it were amplified. The breakfast room was tiny,... more

Overall, I found this hotel to be very nice. Our room was immaculately clean and the common areas always looked very nice. The front desk staff was very helpful and the other staff that we dealt with was very pleasant. Very conveniently located off I-90 with many restaurants and stores nearby. The kids loved the waterslide and the pool and... more

We chose this place after getting prices of many other hotels. The rates were far cheaper than any other place and the accomodations were average. There were some areas that could use a little bit of work and cleaning but for the price we chose to overlook that. The location is within walking distance to several good dining options as... more
