The price was right. The room was clean. There were a few things that could be better: The elevator became noisy, there was some broken glass in the window next to the elevator on the 5th floor, and the light in the bathroom would not stay on but rather blinked, but you get what you pay for. I would return.

The room itself was very nice and clean. The pool has been closed from the health department. Which was a huge bummer because it rained and we were unable to do our scheduled plans which is why I chose this hotel as a back up plan.

The hotel is being renovated when we were there, so hopefully the owners continue with this to bring it back to its former appeal. The beds were quite comfortable and the TV was excellent and huge, with Roku service.

I didn’t like that there was a broken window exiting the elevator or that the room numbers were written on the door with permanent marker.

Take in mind POOL & BREAKFAST isn’t available. Clean bed and rooms. Can’t complain for the price. Just disappointed about the pool. It looks like it used to be a beautiful hotel.

The beds were clean and comfortable, but the bathroom was horrible. The toilet wouldn't flush properly, the tub was stained and rusty, scarry looking. The hallways snelled humid. We didn't use the pool, but we looked, and there was a horrible looking green caroet around the pool.
Would not stay here again.

This place was not only dirty, but people were loitering all around the property. Looked like people were living out of their cars. I went up to my room and immediately came back to the desk. Told him i want a refund and check out. He said he could not help me. Feeling unsafe at this place I just left.

I pulled up to that parking lot and knew i wasn't going to stay there. I had to put in a claim with my hotel protection to get my money back because Howard Johnson wouldn't honor the cancelation. It didn't look safe and i didn't feel safe.

Please do not stay here, we checked in and out all within 30 mins. This is the dirtiest, smelliest, nastiest place I have ever seen. As soon as you walk in the front doors you are overcome by the smell. PLEASE DO NOT STAY HERE
