Amazing ty

Luv the front desk lady. She was very clear on everything and i believe due to her thats why this hotel hqs done q total 180 and in a very good way. loved how welcoming she was. She qlso had lots of patients due to our reservation not going right due to us. But she helped figure it all out and we enjoyed our stay. Loved the breakfast as well. Completely different staying there this time compared to what it was like 4 years ago. 100% better qnd would recommend this hotel to qnyone.

Property is an older building and within walking distance of the Southbridge Mall and Hockey arena. Although the mall doesn't have much in it anymore. Parking lot was well lit at night and staff was helpful. Room was clean and ready for arrival, but it had a bit of a stale musty smell. Refrigerator and microwave in room worked fine. For the lower cost and just needing a place to crash at night it worked fine. If you want a place with more frills and amenities this would not fit that expectation.

If you go into your stay at this Econolodge with very low expectations you can be assured they will be met. During my weekend stay my room was without a smoke detector and the hot water was not hot only warm, no matter what time of the I tried it. The front desk was skilled at making excuses for problems that were evidently long standing.
