This was a very ghetto hotel. I rented an outside room. Maybe the inside rooms are better but they cost more. I am surprise that the Howard Johnson company is allowing them to use the name. Half of the hotel is abandoned and run down. The price was good and the staff was nice. The room however was clean. But... More

We do our best to ensure that our guests have clean, comfortable rooms. Our exterior rooms are typically utilized by our contruction and rail workers. Our interior... More

Thank you for taking time to write a candid response about our facility. I do apologize about the confusion with the early check in. While we do our best to accommodate early check in's, it is not guaranteed. Our housekeeping department works very hard to ensure that we provide clean rooms to our guests. We do not want to rush...

This was the worst hotel experience ever! We book a hot tub suite for 2 nights. It does not show in the pictures or tell you that one of the "walls" is actually floor to ceiling windows that are caulked together. The filthy door shook sideways when you opened it. The room had a funny odor. The "hot tub" was... More

Thank you for voicing your concerns as a consumer. We do our best to accommodate each of our guests. It was clear when you came to the front desk and stated that you wanted to check out, as the room wasn't up to your standards, that offering another guest room would not have made you happy. We want all of... More

Thank you for taking time to write your experiences about our facility. I would like to address a couple of points. As you are aware, by making your reservation online, that the hotel has a 24 hour cancellation policy. Our facility is very strict on this policy. It is explained to each guest that has a reservation. Therefore, the other... More
