My name is Victoria and I am writing this on behalf of my husband and myself. Seeing as I was the one that recommended staying at the Howard Johnson because for almost 50 years it was a name that I trusted, and respected. Wherever I traveled I always looked for a HoJo's. It's was a name that I felt stood... more

Stayed overnight at Howard Johnson for one night in July 2008. We called ahead to make a reservation and it seemed like it was cheaper by about $40 compared to other hotels. Also, there was a Barrie Latin festival going on that day so all the hotels were pretty much already booked up. Since we were invited to someone’s place,... more

Do not stay here. I should of listened to the other reviewers but was close to the venue we were attending. The room was terribly small and stunk. The worst part was the air conditioning was not working and could not open the windows. Was sweltering so much we checked out very early. Could not switch rooms as was fully... more

After reading some of the reviews on this site, I was a little worried about this hotel. But the rate of $59 for a room with one double bed was half what most of the other hotels were charging (Holiday Inn, Travelodge, Super 8, etc), so I went for it. The room was warm, relatively clean, and the free breakfast... more

Stayed on a Saturday night in July. The staff were very accomodating of our needs. That fact made up for the small room that we got which was situated at the end of the hotel next to the street which got a little noisy into the night. The room itself, though small, was nicely decorated and satisfactorily clean. The air... more
