Econo Lodge Inn & Suites Fairgrounds
The Econo Lodge Inn & Suites Fairgrounds offers amenities such as parking, an elevator, a pool, a spa, WiFi/Internet, pet-friendly rooms, laundry facilities, non-smoking rooms, breakfast, air conditioning, a 24/7 front desk, a kitchen, and a spa tub.
Wish I could stay longer. It was a relaxing and comfortable getaway from stressful life problems!
This hotel is so convenient being just outside of the fairgrounds but it has seen better days. Dirty carpets holes in drywall and bathtub. The person that checked me in was super nice but the others rude. This place could be a gold mine being so close to the fairgrounds but it’s neglect is the reason I wouldn’t stay again.
My friend had a health problem. And the staff were very supportive.
Apparently some little boy pulled the fire alarm this afternoon. It goes off intermittently. Not too happy about this.
