Howard Johnson sucks - do not book
It was very disgusting. Hair in tub, stains on bed sheets and pillows. Non smoking but smelt of marijuana and cigarettes. No shuttle like other hotels around the area to the airport. Very sketch area and people. Would not recommend to my worst my emeny. Wife and son got rashes, and we stayed literally for our layover which was the same day. They probably got bed bugs too. This place is worse then a redroof inn.

In a pinch…like a glitch that shuts it all down!
The hotel was in a questionable location, but near the airport, so I guess that was a pro. It seemed rundown and when we walked to our room, the second floor hall at one point smelled distinctly like vomit. Also, the website description said it had an airport shuttle, but when we called and asked, they said they didn’t. We heard another guest asking about this too when we checked in. The room was ok, meaning it at least had a bed and decent AC, but I would likely not stay there in the future. Given that we had a canceled flight during the worst day to travel this summer, this hotel at least gave us a cheap, unexpected place to stay.

This wasn’t what we expected from the photos. Above all it felt very unsafe. We were looking for a safe place to stay before a trip and this was not it. Our room was filthy. There were stains on the floor, the walls and the bed. The carpet was literally sticky. The bed was uncomfortable, the bathroom floor and tub creaked loudly when you stepped on it which wasn’t great for waking others up at night. The walls seemed paper thin. Incredibly disappointing stay. Do not book this place.

Felt uncomfortable the moment we pulled in. Strange people hanging out in the parking lot. Worried all night that my car and trailer was going to get broken into. It was hard to get to from the highway and it was down a dirt road with minimal signs. We missed it the first time.

Dont do it
Place was disgusting, couldn't even stay a couple hours, definitely not a whole night. Im not one to complain but the place smelled horrible. Super sketchy parking lot. Ants in 1 of the 2 beds. Not sure if it was chemicals I was smelling or not but was hard to breathe in the room even with the windows open.
