I just completed a 5 night stay at the Econo Lodge. This is a first class hotel! It has been a Platinum Award Winner in 2008, 2009, 2010 and
2011!! The staff is what makes this a first class hotel.
When I arrived last Sunday afternoon, I was greeted by Don Osborn who was working behind the desk. He is a very friendly person. He even asked me if I needed any help with carrying in my luggage from my car. After I brought my luggage in, I asked Don a question. By the time I turned around, their head house keeper, Genaro, carried my luggage up to my room.
The Econo Lodge is one of the few hotels that has hourly trips to the Mayo Clinic. Some hotels you have to wait 2 hours for service.
The owners of this hotel, Mike and Lynette Jacobson, are outstanding!
Since November 1st was a Holy Day in the Catholic Religion, I asked Lynette if she knew where the nearest Catholic Church was? I started to talk to her husband for a minute and before I knew it, Lynette had called 3 Catholic Churches to get the Mass times for me and gave me directions to them. This is what I call outstanding service!
The Assistant Manager, Josiah Bandy, is always there if you have any questions or you need any help with directions. All of the staff is very friendly and helpful.
The rooms are very nice and clean. They have an excellent breakfast.
They have beautiful flowers planted outside with some nice shrubs too.
For the price you pay, this is a first class hotel! Try it for yourself and see why they have so many repeat customers.
