After a very stressful time at the airport, I arrived after a cancelled flight to an older man at the front desk who simply grunted at me. He gave me no information about the hotel, about the breakfast I’d paid for. He didn’t speak to me. It felt very unwelcoming. The following morning, the breakfast was not edible- and I am not a fussy eater. I would not stay at a Howard Johnson again.
We ended up getting there late on check and to be somewhere so we dropped our stuff off, freshened up and left. When we got back, the toilet was running which meant it had been running the whole time we were gone. It was too late to do anything at that time. We closed the bathroom door and I told the front desk in the morning. Needless to say when we got back later that night, the toilet was still running. Also, we did not have enough towels when we got to the room (only one wash cloth and one hand towel). We didn't notice until the morning.
If your looking for prostitutes and drugs... free range after dark - Just see the sketchy guy lingering in the parking lot and he'll hook you up.
If you like to live life on the edge...this is the place to start....I put a family member up here for the night, that was a mistake

This stay was unpleasant. Nothing compared to what is offered.
We asked to change our reservation and were told by Travelocity that it couldn't be doe. So we drove 2 hours out of our way, got to the hotel and were told our reservation was canceled. Another man was told the same thing right after us.
I booked on Expedia. Easy as pie. They sent me a text saying I could mobile check in ahead of time to save time when I was there. I got to the check in desk and the man could not find my reservation for about 20 minutes despite me showing him my confirmation number and all that and he was rude with me saying why would I use the website etc. Finally he found it. No time saved there. The website for Howard Johnson specifically say’s several in several places all rooms are nonsmoking. Good I do not smoke. I get to the room there are burns in the sheets and it stinks of cigarettes. Gross. The floors were dirty, with debris in the corners and such. All day and into the night there was doors slamming and loud music and such. So I get a text saying I can mobile check out. So I do and I decided it was finally quiet enough so I could take a nap I requested a late checkout on the website. It told me I could stay til 3pm for an additional 40$. Well the man at the desk told me it was 50$ and proceeded to show me a hand written note about prices. I showed him the website which clearly stated 40$ and he continued to argue and be nasty to me. So I decided to just leave. Awful experience and terrible service. I will never return there
The place was a dump. We left 5 min after we saw the room. Was billed on cc. Still not refunded. Manager was rude and cursed at us. Told us off we don’t like it go to another hotel. We left a suit in the room and next day when we went to get it. He lied and said we didn’t leave it there. After waiting 30 minutes. He found it. Returned to us in a garbage bag. Crackheads hangin out in parking lot and in hallways. Never stay nor recommend ever. It sucked totally. And this was all after we drove from Florida. Issue the refund please for 126.09
Nice hotel next to a 7 eleven, they give free continental breakfast coffee and cereal. My only complaint is the tub was a little dirty but overall the hotel is not bad. I felt very safe because you have to use a card to open the hallway door to each floor.
The man was a little bit rude and dismissive. I made the reservation within 10 minutes of arriving and he wouldnt allow us to stay and wouldn't call a manager for approval. I was just done driving from a business trip I needed to rest before an accident occured. I was just tired and needed a few hours to rest.
