This Howard Johnson's "Executive Center" is a holding bin for old people's tour groups and truckers wanting to spend a night out of the sleeper. Several members of my company complained of smells and bugs in their rooms. Most disturbing to me are the lack of carpeting in many of the 1st floor rooms. It's wall-to-wall tile, and that equals... more

Having read of the reviews about this location I was a little hesitant to stay, However it is great. New beds in the room; bathrooms appeared to have been renovated; clean swimming pool area; Coconuts Comedy Room; and very good breakfast buffet. Will return for sure.

I booked this hotel for five nights for a business trip. When I spoke to the desk clerk when making my reservation, she promised me a quiet room poolside. When I arrived, i was put in an outside room with paint peeling from the ceiling, bad carpet and people next door that appeared to be local drugstore operators since they... more

My family stayed at this hotel while in town to visit relatives. I was a little concerned about staying at a HOJO due to a past bad experience in New York. Wow, we had a great stay with better than expected service, a nice staff and comfortable room. They have a hot full buffet breakfast that we enjoyed every morning.... more

There is an abandoned hotel beside this property that looks to attract vagrants and other questionable activity. We also had to wonder why the locals seems to ride in and out of the parking lot at... more

Boy I got taken on this deal. Booked the room on Priceline for $70 a night and it's one of the few times I've really been disappointed with a Priceline booking. How they got the 2.5 star rating I have no idea. I am convinced the only people who book this hotel are people who make the reservations site unseen,... more

My family and I stayed at the best western diplomat inn this weekend for three days. The hotel gave us a smoking room after I requested we be switched to non smoking. This is important to note because, the hotel was not full and our room reeked of cigarette smoke. Since my daughters are not smokers we went to the... more

I constantly have to book hotels for the travelling crew at my work & we stay in Lakeland frequently. This hotel has been great & I haven't received any complaints from the guys (believe me, they don't hold back!). The sales staff has been wonderful & have made every effort to accomodate us while we're in town. I definitely think... more

If you enjoy 50 - 100 small bugs sharing your hotel room with you this is THE place to be. Not only can you share your room with bugs, but when you try to leave you can look forward to not being helped by the hotel staff. The mangar was more that happy to still charge us !!!!! Talk about... more
