I was a little worried after reading all the reviews after Hotwire confirmed this as my hotel. I read the one about Brenda and the others in reference to bad smells and just dirtyness. So when we arrived I was already to look at the room and then go book something else and spend the next few weeks arguing with... More

After a sketchy motel 8 expirience we decided to head to the Howard Johnson. The rate was good room was decent....kinda creepy people were lurking outside though. We were staying for two days my...

On-line photos and the ad didn't give a clue to the actual condition of the hotel. There were men with grocery carts sleeping in the weeds surrounding the parking lot. The clerk didn't have my pre-paid reservation information and sent me to another hotel. The clerk complained that the booking site I used doesn't pay the hotel on time. She... More

We chose this hotel because of location. The first thing we noticed is the building and grounds are a mess--shabby is too good a word. The smells in the hallways and in our room were nasty. Our bathroom stunk and had cracking tile and just looked very old. We had to unplug the TV to plug in the coffee maker.... More

Probably the worst hotel I've ever stayed at. Room had an eye watering odor. It almost smelled like there was a gas leak. Toilet ran all night and as someone else mentioned, the handle needed to he held down for the entire flush. Everything was outdated and worn. Batteries on the remote were being held in place by scotch tape.... More

When we pulled in late at night, the attached bar/restaurant was hopping! A bit disconcerting for a single woman from the boonies. The room was clean but had a funny smell-carpet shampoo and/or wet dog. The bathroom vanity was very small-nowhere to put your things. Beds were fine. The breakfast bar was dark and dreary for our early morning departure.... More

We left to attend the footbal game and when we returned someone had been in our room and went through all our stuff. My medication was missing. We called the... More

Wow! What a horrible staff of workers. The rooms smelled horrible, the place was totally runned down. There were fights in the hallway at night. They gave away our second night although we clearly booked two nights stay. When I went to complain about two lightbulbs that burned out, the ice machine and coffee machine that didn't work, they staight... More
