It was nice & comfortable

2/10 Poor

Beds were. The room just didn’t feel comfortable, parts of the room were damaged. And I never got my deposit back.
Dempsey, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Avoid this motel
This is probably the most disgusting motel I’ve stayed at ever! Stained sheets, dirty walls, sink, floors, shower, and a barely functional tv. For $120 it was also a rip off.
Andrew, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

First they advertised shuttle service on/ from the airport and when I get there I had to walk, second the room was nothing like the advertised!
Osbaldo, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Place is a dump. Had to change rooms due to TV and phone not connected. Front desk guy had no clue what was going on. Howard Johnson should take his name off this place. NEVER COMING BACK. PLACE IS A DUMP.
Hilario, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

disappointing
very disappointed by this property. Old and run down rooms and facilities that were very subpar. Mattress was very uncomfortable. No amenities except a tv and refrigerator and tiny microwave. Bathroom was small and sink had cracks in the basin. Door to room was too short to prevent anything from crawling in and side gaps were significant. One and done for sure!!!!
Seth, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Poor hotel.
Uncomfortable old, lumpy, spring bed. Loose wiring visible. Unreliable keying. Gang symbols written in shower. Electrical issues. Under renovation.

2/10 Poor

One of the worst hotels I've stayed at in my life.
This was #2 of 3 "worst hotels I've stayed at in my life." The pictures are completely misleading. The rooms and building were borderline dilapidated and should be torn down/condemned. There was arguing an yelling at all hours of the night (3:30 am - 4:30 am) with horns/alarms going off and police sirens nearby all night. The floor was "wavy" and the room was disgusting. The room was so gross that when I laid down to sleep I tried to minimize movement to avoid contact as best I could with my surroundings. I looked for something I could use as a weapon while I slept. I'm not kidding. When I was picked up by my Uber driver in the morning I told him how awful it was. He asked me if I had heard the prostitutes while I was sleeping. This was so bad that I will complain to Hotels.com. This should not be on their website.

Nasty!!
Have to request clean towels and linens since they only clean every 3 days! Some sort of bugs in one of the beds. Room stunk

Bugs. Dirty linen
Brittney, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Looks like the property is more of a trap house, everything looks dirty, the water gets clogged up, toilets have stains all over, mold in the rooms.
Alejandro, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

the cleaning is terrible, they were also fixing the parking lot and we couldn't find a place to park, they didn't clean the room
Cinthia Rosaura, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Disgusting property! DO NOT STAY HERE>
This property is disgusting. The room smelled terribly of smoke and cigarettes. It is a run down, dirty and smelly place. Linens are cheap and stained. Walls are paper thin and you can hear everything through them between rooms.
Jeffrey, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I saw homeless people walking around the property. Bad part of town. The day I was there, they were in the middle of repaving the lot. No -parking. The front desk person was very accommodating and gave me a full refund. This is not a safe place to be or park your car...
Scott, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I grew up in Florida & had fond memories of stopping at Howard Johnson hotel’s & restaurants. To have the name Howard Johnson (& Wyndham) on this awful place is a travesty. For Orbitz to even represent it is sad. The most awful place I’ve ever stayed. We got stuck in Phoenix as our flight couldn’t land in Albuquerque which was our destination. Was relying on Orbitz & a long ago memory of H.J. Both failed us.
Gregory, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

When we checked in they gave us keys for a room that hadn’t been cleaned yet. So they took us to a different room and that room was on the 2nd floor and in multiple spots on the floor it felt like we were going to fall through. The safety lock on the door didn’t work either. Will never stay here again
Heather, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was never cleaned! Even after I made a verbal request on day three of both the front counter and cleaning staff on my floor. No clean sheets No clean towls
RICHARD, 6-night trip

Scary Bathroom
The hotel air conditioner in the room did not work. The bathroom was scary. The shower curtain looks like someone stepped all over it with muddy shoes. The floor tiles were lifting and the shower head had mold or something all over it. I was afraid to turn it on.
1-night trip

2/10 Poor

We had a confirmation number. We called from the airport to say the flight was late and we were on our way. They said as long as we got there before the night audit, it would be fine. We got there around 1:30am. Kevin the man on the desk said he had no rooms and had given our room away! He also did NOTHING to help us and cancelled our reservation in front of us. Expedia sucked. Howard Johnson sucked. Wyndham properties who were also contacted for assistance sucked. Overall worst experience ever. Never in all years of travelling has a hotel given away a room when it was reserved and confirmed.
Fatima, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

$176 a night. It’s a motel. The rooms are disgusting. Beds are cheap and plastic and you can’t sleep. Bathrooms are gross. Broken tiles Witt mildew. Broken outlets. No enough towels. Asking for more towels got a “Maybe” from the clerk. They close the lobby at night. So if you check in late, you have to do so while standing outside, alone, 5 feet from the street in a dangerous neighborhood. The walls are paper thin. You can hear entire conversations of your neighbors at regular speaking volume. The parking lot is busted. There is literally nothing redeeming about this dump. And for all this, tbh charge about $200 a night.
