While it is somewhat distant from the highway, it is near another busy road so you will need earplugs to be able to sleep. The area seems sketchy, but nothing bad happened. The breakfast was just prepackaged sweet rolls of the type you can be in any gas station. You would not expect much from an Econo lodge but it was on the pricey side for what it is when I was there. A smoke detector was beeping perhaps because it had been tampered with.
That said, the plumbing worked, the lights worked, the staff did their job, and furnishings were as expected if the structure was a bit run down. You might stay there if it is offered at low cost or nothing better is available.
