Good location. Many fast-food restaurants close. EV charger available. The only downsize is the included "breakfast" is not a breakfast. Only few protein bars and not even a bagel, eggs, bread or orange juice.

Our stay here was just ok. Rooms and outdoor spaces are a little tired. The pool was clean but within the pool area a damaged/replaced fence panel has not been removed and several of the chairs are broken and present a potential hazard. The breakfast was advertised as a grab and go but people grabbed and lingered in the small lobby area and it was a little hectic.

Main areas of the room were clean but corners, under the sink and the undersides of taps were dirty. Our bathroom sink had a bunch of toothpaste splatter from previous occupants on the underside.

This Howard Johnson location provides a good value as an affordable option for the area. My wife, twelve-year-old daughter and I had a comfortable stay for one night. We would book here again in the future.

Hotel and staff were what you would hope to expect. Staff was courteous and helpful. Hotel rooms were clean and modern. My only complaint was with the pool. The fencing around the pool, although required, was too high and visually restrictive. More importantly, the pool was not being properly maintained. In the 4 days we were there it wasn’t vacuumed and the water was constantly cloudy. As a pool owner, it was not hygienically safe. They need to hire a pool maintenance company if they are not up to the task of properly maintaining it.
