10/10 Exceptional

I’ve stayed at several Howard Johnson hotels. I’ve never had an unpleasant experience and this stay was no different. Very accommodating as I had an emergency at home and needed to bring my children. We received an upgrade for our room with only a very small fee. I would definitely stay again!

6/10 Good

It's in the middle of the city. Good place to stay for overnight. They should work more on the cleaning of room. Also they should proper Laundry their bed sheets and towel.
Surjeet Singh, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Average stay, above average price

Cleanliness is rather average. Not dirty, but not completely shiny. Especially when specifically asked for 4 people's supplies by black & white messages and was replied positively; resulted only the common 2 person supplies were provided. Grab & Go Breakfast was understandable but was the worst I have encountered by far. There were not even bakery products supplied, only muffin, fruits and drinks; would rather call that "Refreshments provided" than "Breakfast".

The exhaust fan in the bathroom was falling down.. the AC smelled like mold when turned on ..
Paige, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Property from outside is totally run down. Peered in the windows of a couple of rooms and they did not look like the photographs. Felt unsafe leaving the car parked there. Did not check in even though I prepaid. Found another Hotel.

Rooms are nicely renovated, clean and comfortable. The convenience and value are hard to beat. Wonderful staff and very helpful. Would stay again!

4/10 Fair

Definitely not worth over $150 for 1 night!! WHY?? Desk clerk didn't ask about rewards program, which is supposed to be a perk. Not impressed that check-in time is an hour later than any other motel chain. It's not accessible to 5/8 of anything by walking... The whole idea of booking a hotel after being on the road for many long hours is you don't want to have to drive fifteen minutes to find a place to have dinner... Specifically booked the room at this hotel because of the restaurant on adjacent premises. Only to find when we got here that It's closed and apparently renovating. The room itself leaves quite a bit to be desired... 1. No bin for recyclables, anywhere in the room. 2. The only way to get ice is to go to the main desk but there's no bucket to put ice in, so why bother? 3. Would be nice to have a radio in the room in case you don't want to the whopping 22" t v 4. The tv picture could at least fill the screen 5. Towels in the bathroom need to be larger .. like a bath sheet size.. the ones available would not wrap around my 3-year-old granddaughter, let alone a grown adult. 6. The towel rack in the bathroom is pulled away from the wall..so much so that if you grab it the wrong way, somebody's going to get hurt 7. No anti-slip treads in the tub 8. Not sure why there's an iron when there's nothing to use an iron on. 9. The bathroom door doesn't close properly 10. Why is the toilet paper hidden under a metal plate behind the door?

Overall, a decent but not great place. Staff Bugsy n reception were helpful. Cleanliness was lacking, and bugs got in the room.
Subhadeep, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Was close to venues and considering it was so close you didn’t hear the noises from outside 😊
Lana, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Clean enough. The only form of heat was an old wooden space heater that looked like it was from the 80’s, bedding was old and ratty, could hear people arguing and talking all night.
Mandy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Heating was a space heater. Parking lot was slippery, had to use 4X4 to get to the parking spot. Our friends had a nicer room. Baseboard heat, a closet and a sink in the bathroom (ours was outside of the bathroom). Maybe they are upgrading and haven’t done the building we were in?
Cynthia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hotel was exactly as advertised and rooms matched the hotel's pics etc. It was clean and better than I expected. It's clearly an older hotel and older building etc, but we were in town for a concert and it met our needs for the trip. One small thing: after the concert we came back and needed some more ice but couldn't access the ice machine because the office was closed. It would have been nicer to have access to an ice machine/ vending machine after office hours.
Kelly, 1-night trip

This was our second stay at this motel. Not a good experience this time. Problems with the lights, tv and heating in the room. Very poor night's sleep.
