Great spot for an overnight stay, or to spend a couple of days. Here are the good and bad from my 2-night stay. I'll include some of my observations as well (things that did not affect me either way) to help others who might be considering a stay in this hotel. Good: Staff was exceptionally helpful and accommodating -- well... more

Spent one night here. The hotel is on the border of Lansing and East Lansing, and it's not really walkable to any points of interest. The hotel was clean, and I was able to check in quite early. Free wireless is a plus. The gym didn't really amount to much--a treadmill, Nautilus, and elliptical, sitting right between the pool and... more

Stayed here for four days with my husband. Booked it as had stayed in very expensive hotel for the previous six nights and wanted to stretch budget further as we were away for three weeks and wanted to stay in another pricey place later on in the trip. Bought online very cheaply and took advantage of the "more than one... more

A very nice motel. Not fancy appearance or landscaping but nice clean rooms. Our particular room had a great sitting room. Huge bathroom but shower only. Nice part of town. As I type this we are sitting outside enjoying a few beers watching the sun set. Found the front desk staff very friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here... more

I was a little leery based on some online reviews and the low price but decided to take a chance because every other hotel I contacted was full. When I arrived, I got really worried because the parking lot was just about empty. Not having any other options, I checked in and was VERY pleasantly surprised. The staff was helpful... more

Very Pleased

We went to East Lansing to visit friends and needed somwehere as a base. I was a little concerened that as the Howard Johnson was relatively cheap it might not be very good but we were all pleasantly surprised. I shared a twin room and was pleased that it had 2 double beds and the sink outside the bathroom was... more

Let me start off by saying that I checked reviews for this hotel and for the most part I was very confident in booking with this hotel after reading them. I will begin with the negatives and then let you know the positives:) We arrived at the hotel and from the front it looked like a nice basic hotel. Nothing... more

Booked for one night on business travel. First room assigned the electronic key did not work. Desk clerk assigned me to another room but had to let me in with the master key because they could not get the room key to work for that one either. She said she'd be bring another key to me in 5 minutes. I... more

We needed a comfortable hotel, close to Michigan State University (MSU) and the Howard Johnson, East Lansing met all requirements. Reception was friendly and very helpful (with local maps of the area at hand) and check-in/check-out was efficient. Was able to receive a special AAA discount rate and breakfast was included. The hotel was advertised as fully re-furbished and that... more
