I've never stayed at Howard Johnson before but this was definitely not one of the best rooms I've stayed in. The Tv did not work and when we called the front desk there was no one available to come fix it. The bathroom door did not close. We had 2 rooms and both rooms had the same issue. We found bugs in the shower on two separate occasions. It overall was a disappointing experience.

Horrific

Feces in the shower, homeless man sleeping on my front door, and super loud all night. Parking is very limited for the size of the hotel. Two hotels in one (Travelodge and Howard Johnson). DO NOT RECOMMEND. Good note is that the manager is very nice.
