If you're cheap like me, this is a great place to stay! However the hotel sits in the tenderloin District which is full of homeless prostitution and crazy drugged out people. On almost any given night somebody's screaming and yelling at each other in the room below you or the room next to you. It's super noisy in the mornings with kids running down the platforms the maids clunking their carts along talking very very loud. Our front door to our room had a huge dent by the lock, it looked like someone had to use a police battery Ram to get into the room. So if that kind of gives you an idea of the neighborhood you're going to be experiencing. I hope this helps you. They have a nice breakfast for you, hot coffee was just great. The refrigerator in the room was Ice cold. Nice to have a microwave in the room as well. The bedding was very clean Limited towels. Oh and by the way we had to call the office three times over our week stay to get maid service. So it's a little lackluster, however if you want to save a buck this is the place to go.

Do not stay here. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. To start, I found a cockroach in my room. When i was checking in there were 3 cop cars out front. Second I tried taking a shower but the bathroom was dirty and full of hair in the shower like nobody cleaned it. Next, the water in the sink would not drain. Then I found out the ac was broken. After asking for a refund the staff played games and refused to acknowledge their wrong doing and did not offer a refund. Please do not stay here.

Not in a safe area, the hotel needs to upgrade. Room smells smokey and dusty. The pipe in the bathroom was hard to turn on the one at the sink fall apart. The staff was nice. I will never stay there again or recommend this hotel.

Nice weekend

Nice stay, comfortable beds. Weird smell in the rooms, breakfast wasn't very appetizing and ran out before ending time. Neighborhood felt a little sketch but not bad for the price paid.

Room cleaners/stockers never came once during my 4 night stay and I had no clean towels so when I asked for them they told me they didn’t have ONE and would come the next day in the afternoon so I couldn’t get anything before I left for the airport since they never came by once. The whole area is surrounded by homeless people and loitering people presumed to be about “that life”. HUGE cockroaches run around the area.

So the Howard Johnson is a nice property depending on what building you are placed in I was likely enough to be placed in building "A" which is the nicer side of the property and seems to be really well up kept overall for the single bedroom it was really well nice and really clean and while I've kept I was placed in the other building "D" as well I had two check-ins and building "D" seemed neglected, with that being said my stay here at the Howard Johnson was pretty acceptable and I did enjoy spending the night here to rest my head. I would probably be a little more selective in picking wood room and what building I would be placed in though.

My stay at the Howard Johnson was was decently nice although for the room I was put in was a dual two beds one room the room had corks with it like the fridge didn't work there was a splat of red stains on the carpet that were questionable! 😅 especially building "D" because the property has segmented buildings and something with building "D" seems that that building is neglected even with the elevators seem neglected. and the reason why I'm able to say this is because I had another reservation and they put me in building "A" and building a was much nicer and a much better room and was well more up kept.
