I booked this hotel for the pool, hot tub, washer and dryer, and mini golf. When i arrive Im told the pool and hot tub are not usable. Huge let down. The mini golf is a joke. I try to use the washers( only 2) but both are broken. One washers water wasnt working, the other wouldnt close and the screen wasnt malfunctioning. I had to go to a laundromat. Theres also poop streaks on the wall in the bathroom. The lady working when i checked in has a sailor mouth. She was not professional. Huge inconvenience, terrible service, highly disappointed. I give this place -5 stars

We had 3 different rooms in a 15 minute time frame. All 3 rooms had cockroaches. The second room was unclean: dirty towels on the floor and bathroom floor, food wrappers and crumbs on the table, beds looked like they were already slept in and cheesy hand prints on the sheets and comforter.

We couldn't even stay. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE PICTURES LISTED ARE NOT ACCURATE! Our room had disgusting carpet, black mold in the shower, a dirty toilet, and smelled like cigarettes. We left immediately. The property itself felt unsafe, there were sketchy people all over the property. Please do not book this hotel expecting the room in the pictures, you will be severely disappointed. Waste of money, will never stay at this hotel brand again.

extra soap not available, lamp missing lightbulb, also not available. Pool in the middle of Summer…. supposedly under renovations. For the price a disappointment. Lot’s of apologies for $93 a night!!!! If Howard Johnson was alive, he would be ashamed. So sad 😞

Terrible stay

Room was disgustingly dirty. Moved the bed because phone fell and there was trash piled up. Bathroom light was not working it would be very dark or blinking. Had to use flashlight to shower. Breakfast was across the street. It was OK…the typical waffle, egg, sausage and cereals.

Improve the cleanliness. There are many cockroaches in the rooms, and the pool has no water. I have no complaints about the staff, but I have to say this not only because I'm criticizing them, but with the goal of improving it for the satisfaction of other visitors. Thanks

Misleading website, pool is down. Over 1 month now

We came to town to visit my 7 grand children. We have stayed at the Howard Johnsons at least 10 times, with the pool and the putt putt golf and the area for running around it was perfect. We have experience with issues at hotels so i called to verify the breakfast in morning and the pool. Oh yes Maam, we are good to go, i booked the room, got in about 930pm and couldnt go swimming so we went to sleep. The morning comes and we are dressed, head to the pool and yes after a long let down i built up for you, the pool was empty!!! No mention on hotels.com, no mention when i called before i booked and as i asked checked in when i asked. .no refund, no exchanging rooms at a differwnt hotel unless we pay. Hundreds of $$ to pay for the room for several nites, but then we were told no refund. Nobody would help us...4 girls under 8 yrs old and try to explain the bs we put up with because we are the little people. 3 hrs on the phone with Hotels.com and the only resolution was no refund, nothing. I had to pay for another night, and no refund. Neither company has made it right for the others who are also the little people just like us. Howard Johnsons and Hotels.com should care about people like me, since people like me want to do business with who we thought cared about us....
