Starting from the room bed sheets were burned with cigarettes, rats running in the room rat droppings on the bed when I returned.
I informed at the reception about the rats and droppings I was told that room will be cleaned in sometime as I was again going out for some work. Room was the same as I returned so I had to leave the hotel as I don’t wanted smell the rat pee the whole night break was just granola bar orange and apple juice and coffee. Sorry to say but I did paid $75 per night for 2 days I stayed only I night and 3 hours I want my refund back if possible or guide me where to get refund from .
People on reception have no idea about the property.

The rooms were extremely dirty. If you pay through a third party app, they place you in the lower end rooms. I stayed there for weeks, and I regret it. This place is mouse infested, the mice literally run right under the doors and all over the rooms. I even cleaned up rodent droppings while staying here. The entire staff acts as if they dont know what they are doing and they take advantage of people of color... The complimentary breakfast is a lie... they put out apple juice and water.

When you walk into the hotel you smell something extremely foul. The posted sign says a lot of things aren’t allowed at the hotel but when you walk past rooms, you see that there isn’t any rules followed. My wife and I spent 20 minutes in our room, that was how long it took to book another hotel stay. It looked like someone got shot in the room, as there was blood on the ceiling and blood on the box spring. The bed also had white and red stains that could have been from any body fluid but your imagination can direct you to what I could of been. When leaving after only 20 minutes there was 3 prostitutes hanging outside promoting there goods… in the snow. Also the elevator was broken and you had to go upstairs then downstairs to the rooms of discuss. this has been the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had.
Never stay here ever.

Do not book

Unfortunately not as advertised. The hotel is overtaken by illicit activity. I did not feel safe. There was blood and who knows what else on the bed (I just looked in the room and left). The night staff member I have to thank because he knew that it was not suitable. He tried to warn me by asking me to see the room first before he checked me in. It was really late and I was exhausted but he made himself clear. He accepted the cancellation with no problem. Thank you to this staff member for looking out for me. I hope you can move to a better environment.

I had to come to town for a medical procedure so looked for something close to where my doctor’s office would be. I don’t know how the ratings for the place were so good. It was terrible, not cleaned and shady people. I booked a king non-smoking room and literally opened the door to a fresh smoked cigarette. Went and asked for another room, gave me a double bed instead. Can smell the smoke in there too but not within the last hour at least. But, room was dirty, the door did not seem secure, there was writing in magic marker on the bathroom mirror, mirror was broke and covered with tape, pubic hair on the toilet seat and the wall was holding up the small tv. Also burn marks on the stand the tv was resting on. The bed sheets were dirty and well. I told them I could not stay and checked out within 15 minutes of getting there. Worst Howard Johnson I’ve ever been to. I’d give negative stars if I could. 100% do NOT recommend

Do u like to live dangerously?

I checked in real late, the front desk was very polite. Checked me right in. The lobby looks fine. i walked upstairs to my room on the 2nd floor and was a lil freaked out. Its 3am, and there were some doors slighty open and the floors and walls are not very clean. Im tired so i just want to get into my room. The door was too small for the frame. There was about an inch of space all around the door... when i entered the room it smelt like someone was blowing cigarette smoke right into my face.. it was grose. I didnt want to go back to the lobby, im going to wait it out until morning. The bedding did not have bed bugs, i always check...however there were many cigarette burns and stains on the sheet and blanket... i.put towels on the bed,slept in my clothes and wore my sweater over my face as a filter. When the sun came up i changed rooms. Now im on the 1st floor not far from the lobby so i felt a lil more.comfort. I couldn't get the door open, so i went back to the front desk, and a maintenance man opened my door for me. He used his key flipped the door handle up and did 2 body slams into the door to get it open.... i said your joking right, this is how i have to open the door??? The room was cleaner and it didnt smell. He said most the doors are like that, and that i was in one of the better rooms :/ my coworker showed up and we stayed 5 nights. On Saturday Ppl hung outside my window, and i had strange nocks on my door, would not stay here by myself.

already checked what the positives. the actual room left mush to be desired. very poor condiitions as far as furniture that was falling apart, the carpet was filthy, the night stand was uncleaned. the king bed, had only 2 small pillows. limited bath towels present too. fluorescent light above microwave didn't work. there were no hangers for the closet. even with calm weather the wi-fi, was spotty and buffering constantly. that meant endless wait times on laptop, and terrible tv reception. no in-room phone to call desk for service. although the staff was helpful and friendly, i would never recommend this hotel to anyone, and i would certainly never book there again.

Here at the Howard Johnson Inn center, a place we wouldn’t recommend to visit whatsoever, our stay did not last up to 20 minutes, and there were and are a variety of reasons to say this. Beginning with our entrance into the hotel, as we entered a dim and evidently-inapropriatedly cared building. Additionally, the images advertised did not capture at all the place’s atmosphere nor true appearance.
However, the staff attendant was polite and humble, which makes it a bit of a more decent and place.
People like him deserve to be at better-cared places
Overall, we did not enjoy this visit at all.
The hotel must be improved.

The property was nice from the outside but that was the only highlight of this trip. We stayed at this location as it was fairly close to the cruise port which made it a convenient place to stay the night before our cruise. We walked in to find an almost friendly person working the front desk. As we entered just past the desk we saw buckets all over the floor that were catching the water that was dripping from the ceiling in numerous places. Then we had to watch walking to our room so we didn’t fall walking past the ice machine as it was leaking all over the floor. Entering our room was even worse. The room clearly was a smoking room at some point as it absolutely reeked of a cigarette. It was so bad we decided to take our suitcase and any belonging we could back to the car. There was no way we could sleep in that room with the smell. It was on everything. The beds, linen, towels, curtains. Everything. We ended up driving to the dollar store down the street and got 2 bottles of Fabreeze that we spayed constantly in the room. We could smell it in our hair and on our pajamas by the time we left in the morning. (Our pajama smelled the entire 10 day cruise). Breakfast was not any better. We ended up walking across the street to McDonald’s for breakfast as the only thing available to eat was a honey and oats granola bar. At this point no one trusted the water or juice they had out. There were only like 6 chairs in the breakfast table and one of the staff was sitting in a chair.

The property was dirty and smelled like cigarettes. The furniture was chipped with missing drawers. The bed the bedsheets were terrible. The quilt on top of the bed was too thin, and it has cigarette burns on it. The shade on the lamp was dirty and had holes in it. The AC cover was dirty and the window. The curtain was dirty and hanging off each end. My room had an adjoining door and the lock was broken. It was held close by a table there were no hangers in the room . The staff was not rude, but indifferent to the fact that we needed an additional blankets and a pillow. They said they didn’t have any. The carpet was dirty. It was just the most horrible hotel experience I have ever had. I’m allergic to cigarette smoke, my eyes were itchy. My throat was itchy. I have pictures of everything if you want to see them.

The toilet paper holder was rusted out and no longer able to be used, the roll of toilet paper was the sink. I'm not sure what is growing on the mini fridge. The dresser had no drawer and was ready for garbage day. The tv stand/dresser had seen better days/nights. The odor of something foul filled the air. We left immediately.

The picture of the room does not look like the real room. The room was very run-down and with minimum furniture. The whole hotel smells of smoke. There is really no breakfast. Breakfast is supposed to be from 6:30 to 9:30 and we came down at 9:15. There was only \"coffee\" (no taste, almost like black water) in a thermos, a jar with water and another one with apple juice. When I asked about the food, they said they had run out. It really looked like there had been no food at any time. I do not recommend this hotel and I am surprised something of such low quality is even available via Expedia.

It is not cheap the night . So it could be better looking.

This was one of the worst hotel rooms I have ever stayed at. The room was smelly with only one dim light for the room. Impossible to see anything. There were no power outlets. I had to unplug the only lamp to recharge my phone. Broken furnitures were scattered around the room.
No iron/stand, no coffee/tea maker, no ice bucket, even no blanket (i used the bed spread for cover).
