Because of recent flooding, I found myself checking into EconoLodge at 4am. The clerk on duty was very courteous and welcoming. I asked about a discount for government employees and I was informed that although EconoLodge does not have this because their prices are already reasonable, they did have a coupon that she would be willing to let me use. (something she didn't have to do) Although it was 4am when I got into my room, I clearly remember being struck with the impression that this room was clean and didn't seem to be in any disrepair. (I did look...the only thing I found was a missing light bulb) The bathroom was just as impressive. Mind you, this is not the Ritz, it's EconoLodge. I had very low expectations for this motel and they blew them out of the water. As far as any ill odors, I didn't smell a thing. The thing that prompted me to write this review was based on the fact that when I left the next morning, I left quite a bit of money in the room, on accident (my 5 yr old daughters money!). My mind was on getting home to see how much damage there was from the flood. Monday, I called and inquired about lost and found. This is where I have my only negative remark...this particular clerk was not helpful, nice or even the least bit concerned about helping me track down my daughters money. In fact, she said they didn't have it. I called again Tuesday and asked to speak to the owner. After speaking with this different clerk, who after hearing my story, was very in tune with how i was feeling and assured me that one way or another, i would hear from the owner. Needless to say, 10 minutes later, she calls saying the owner had found the money himself (Because of all the flooding they had been extremley busy and that's why he was helping clean the rooms) and had put it in a safe. Something else they didn't have to do. He could have kept it with no repercussions, I wouldn't have known any different. I can't comment about the food, because I was anxious to get home. I would recommend this motel based soley on the integrity of the owner returning my money and the two positive and helpful clerks that I dealt with.
