It was clean, but the breakfast it's a joke, some bagels and cereal. They claim it's Continental breakfast, but they have no eggs/omelet or sausage or something else. Pool was closed since it's outside and was March. Heater / AC makes so much noise at night, that we turned OFF. Not recommended this one.

This little hotel is super clean and the parking is ideal for those too tired to lift their suitcases! Multiple access points once you register and get your pass key. The check in was quick and the staff was genuinely friendly. The only problem was that the tv remote was not allowing you to search available programming. As exhausted as I was I chose to turn it off and get dinner delivered through grub hub and go to sleep on the most comfortable bed I’ve had the pleasure of sleeping on since I started this trip 4 days ago. I highly recommend staying at this Howard Johnson hotel.

it's definitely out of date and rundown but it was clean enough and I slept great. For the low price I paid, it was excellent! If they ever raised the prices, it wouldn't be worth it, because the breakfast isn't really anything and it's not all that nice. But it doesn't stink, it was tidy and seemed to have been cleaned, and the beds are comfortable. And the price was amazing through Expedia.

I showed the lady that it says \"dogs and cats\" and she just said she'd \"let it slide\" like I had done something wrong. do not recommend whatsoever. could barely sleep the whole night waiting for some man to come banging on the door telling us to leave when we'd done nothing wrong

Though the hotel states that the room was smoke free the place had a faint ashtray smell. The water had a great temp and water pressure for a great shower. The tv only provided non cable channels. The bed was perfectly comfortable, firm and flat.
The noise level was not a problem even though it is located to a busy street.
The breakfast was fine with cold cereal, a waffle maker and some fruits.

The front-desk staff was friendly and professional when I checked in—no issues there. She assured me the showers were “very hot,” which I desperately needed after days of exhausting storm damage triage and cleanup.
The room itself was spotlessly clean—easily one of the cleanest motels I’ve ever stayed in, and I genuinely appreciated that during an already stressful time.
Unfortunately, that’s where the positives ended. The showers were not hot at all—they were only comfortably warm. Any cooler and they would have been straight-up lukewarm. After what I’d been through, a truly hot shower would have made a huge difference, but it just wasn’t there.
The Wi-Fi—advertised as a key amenity and a requirement for me to work remotely—was completely unusable. The provided password kept failing. I notified the desk, and they said they’d reset the router. Still nothing. Later, I could see networks for other rooms (like room 113 and room 320) and even a hallway Roku TV, so I sent screenshots proving the issue. I never heard back.
The next morning, when I raised the Wi-Fi problem again, the staff member on duty became argumentative, essentially accused me of lying, and insisted their internet was “excellent throughout the property.” I pointed out that other guests in the continental breakfast area were having the same issue—they couldn’t connect either and had to move around the motel trying to get signal.
I had originally planned to extend my stay for several more nights, but his dismissi

Not a bad place to stay for a quick trip

This was a quick overnight trip for back to back soccer games. The service was great, the hotel description is a little misleading. Technically it has a gym, and but one out of four machines work, and no weights. The breakfast is a little lacking, basically all of your standard carb items, and juice. The area has everything you could need, shopping, food, etc and I felt safe on my 4am run.

Breakfast had to ask to refill the machines and the staff did not deal with the fighting that was happening in the tiny breakfast area. The furniture was tore up and the shower was dirty. The floors where not vacummed. Would have switched and went to a different hotel but it was late at night when we arrived and had two very tired little ones so we just made due. Will not stay there again very disappointed

Room 215 Review

We booked a room with two king beds. The room itself was spacious and comfortable, but unfortunately, it had a very unpleasant odor.

When we first entered, it smelled as if someone had been smoking inside. After returning from dinner, the smell had gotten even worse, and we had to open the windows to make it bearable. The contrast between the rest of the hotel—which was fresh and clean—and our room made the issue even more noticeable.

I reported this to the front desk the next morning. The staff member was polite and offered to let us change rooms, but we would have to wait until other guests checked out. Unfortunately we had a hike planned the morning. While we were out on a long hike (Silver Falls, 7.5 miles), later, my family became too tired to pack and move, and since we were leaving the next morning, we decided to stay put (our choice).

Unfortunately, the odor lingered throughout our stay. It smelled as though something had soaked into the carpet—almost like urine.
