Vibrating Pipes

The whole property looks rundown. The room’s bathroom need a lot of repair, when you open the shower faucet, the pipes start to vibrate loud. The furniture is old and scratched. The sheets of poor quality and the pillows compressed into square shape We booked for 2 nights and had only stayed 1 night. Had to move to another property. Definitely Howard Johnson has and keeps declining . I’m still apologizing to my wife for taking her ato a place like that

Older filthy hotel

I was extremely disappointed in this hotel. It use to be Howard Johnson’s was a nice hotel. This one was run down and dirty. They only provide room service every two days. So dirty towels were never changed out. I checked out early and the hotel changed me for days I didn’t use. Not happy

This property does not appear as accurate in the online photos as what is actually looks like in person. There were multiple bags of garbage along the front lawn/sidewalk area. The room smelled very musty. Sunshine was shining through multiple holes all around the stain filled curtains. There was what looked like an old booger smeared in the wall on the bedside. The blue bed sham on top had white stains on it. The white blanket had stains on it. The ironing board on the wall had white stains on it as well. The front desk worker was nice. We checked out immediately after viewing the room, I did not feel comfortable staying there with my children due to the uncleanly room and environment as a whole.

It was disgusting, we didn’t even end up staying because the room had cockroaches, we called the front desk and asked for a refund that we would be leaving they said we would have to contact expedia and i tried to contact them and because we had checked out it said we couldn’t get a refund. They brought us air fresher when they was supposed to be sending someone to spray for bugs and when we called back they sent a man with a big store bought bug spray he handed it to us for us to spray the room ourselves. Do not recommend!

Just ok

This hotel would be ok if you are only needing to sleep there for a LEGOLAND trip. Good location. They say they offer breakfast but it is only pancakes, cereal, a couple apples and bananas. So nothing to write home about. Bedding was terribly thin, no elevator and the smoking rooms are on the lower level.
