I reserved the Howard Johnson in Salem for a short work trip to combine business and pleasure. Salem is where my parents and sister live. Let me put it quickly...The shower flooded the bathroom, it took 20 minutes to get extra towels to fix it, they called me during the day when I told them not to (I work nights),... More

We stayed here for one night on our way to CA. The place is pretty horrid. At least it was kind of cheap. It's probably okay if you are a college student looking for a bed while haning out with your buddies on a road trip, I guess - since that's pretty much who we saw there. That and some... More

Based on reviews here and the fact that it was cheap, we were going to stay at this hotel. We were driving to California and needed a place to sleep for a few hours and let the kids out of their car seats. We stopped here and rang the door bell. There was no answer so we went to the... More

Had tried to book room on line while en route, but hadn't gone through. Arrived late and had to knock on the door as it was already locked. Owner was very accommodating and granted us the same discounted rate I had been quoted for the on-line booking. King size comfortable bed, great breakfast and wireless internet access were also included.... More

I stayed here for business when I was in Salem, and it was a good value only about $50. The hotel was a bit older, but the room was clean and its very close to food. I was able to walk to the Carls Jr or Popeyes which were only about 2 blocks away. The tv had a good amount... More

I stayed here in early August. After a whole day's driving, I was tired and decided to stop in Salem to stay for one night. The price of hotels in Salem/Albany area seems more expensive than I expected, so I used the coupon from a hotel coupon book, which you can usually find in MacDonald's or Danny's. Howard Johnson is... More

We stayed here in mid October. We have stayed at this inn many times over the past four years as our daughter was attending college in Salem. The rooms are always clean. The hotel staff is friendly. The breakfast buffet has a waffle machine, bananas, coffee, juice, milk, cold cereal, instant oatmeal, bagels and a toaster. It is adequate and... More

Our room was very large but the decor was extremely dated, as were the beds. The walls were thin, and it was hard to get a decent night's sleep, since we could hear everything. The room was clean. Breakfast was nothing special but decent enough. If you have electronics that need charging, good luck finding enough outlets. More

Room cleanliness is very important to me. I am usually skeptical about places with very low rates, but this inn was much cleaner than many expensive places I have stayed. No ill odors. Exterior landscaping also is tidy and attractive, many flowers nicely tended with automatic waterers. Continental breakfast with waffle maker, no protein, but overall adequate for the cost... More
