8/10 Good

Econo is very ideal for a family because of the great location close to the highway and restaurants as well. The room we had was very spacious for a family of 3, having a king bed size bed. The amenities were good. However, I would recommend to add more variety on the continental breakfast as it was very limited. Special thanks to Sagar for his great service and assistance. He was very friendly and welcoming. Smooth check in and check out. Would stay here again!
Dave, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Really good overall The only couple not perfect things were the size of the cooking area. Tiny and missing a few basic items it was not great to cook there. The other one was that you could totally hear everything from the outside. Besides that it was good. Affordable, clean, good location and good breakfast. Also really big and comfy bed.
