Score
Medium Risk

Across the available record, Econo Lodge has six inspections on file, the first dated 2024. Inspectors last stopped by on Mar 9, 2026. When a facility lands in medium risk territory, it usually means a mixed inspection result.

There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near two violations per visit across recent inspections.

When inspectors have written things up, “certified food protection manager” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

That's lower than the typical Byron restaurant, which scores around 94. The full record sits in fairly typical territory for a working restaurant.
