***Read before booking*** Note that this is not Howard Johnson but goes but is just using their name as a franchise. The hotel is called Developer’s Inn. Also there is a $14 plus tax resort fee per day that is being charged. They claim it’s for the free breakfast, free WiFi, and free parking but how can they be considered free if you charge a resort fee and this is a motel and not a resort. The fee is not disclosed on Expedia and after bringing to Expedia’s and the hotel’s attention, it still hasn’t been updated which I think is a very deceiving practice. I was also charged for “damaged linen” and I am 100% certain it was not caused by me. How on earth can I cause blue dye when nothing I had including my luggage was blue. I am still working on getting a full refund back. If you don’t want to have to deal with this, you should think twice before booking this hotel.

It is unacceptable to charge a resort fee when the property has no resort-like infrastructure whatsoever—or anything that would even suggest it is a resort—especially considering we only used the place to sleep. I will be pursuing my legal rights regarding this abusive charge. The breakfast is shameful. The coffee tastes like vanilla, extremely unpleasant. None of the food items are labeled, so we had no idea what we were eating. There was no butter or cream cheese for the bread. Out of the five mornings we stayed, we only went to breakfast on the first day and never returned. It is disgraceful to claim you offer breakfast and then serve something of such poor quality, not to mention the breakfast area is far too small for the number of guests. From the day I made the reservation, I requested a crib for the room. The hotel contacted me several times asking if I had any requests, and I repeatedly mentioned the crib. A few days before check-in, I even received a message confirming that the crib would be in the room and everything would be ready. Upon arrival, the receptionist seemed unwilling to help—tired and unmotivated. When I asked about the crib, she said I would have to take it to the room myself. She handed it to us and told us our room was on the third floor because the second floor “wasn’t working,” and that we would have to use the stairs, as there is no elevator (even though there are signs indicating one). The next day, I saw guests staying on the second floor.

Excelente servicio. Personal Muy amables tanto front desk como la chica del desayuno. Sobre la habitación me tocó esta ves el nivel 3, Mi cuarto estaba Super Limpio, el cuarto tiene Microwave, Caja de seguridad, Aire Acondicionado, Toallas, Shampoo, Lavamanos, Televisor. El hotel cuenta con buen estacionamiento incluido en la reserva. Sobre el Área (espacio de sentarse) del desayuno es uno pequeño y se complica el poder sentarse muchas veces por el espacio limitado. En cuanto a la comida el desayuno es uno completo: Huevo, Pan, Algunos Cakes, Waffles, Juice, Cereales, Papas tipo Hash brown, Sausage, Café, Jogurt. El hotel tiene Excelente úbicación, cerquita de tiendas, restaurant and Old Towns and World Of Food Truck. (Esta última es un área excelente para comer diferentes tipos de comidas de diferentes países) Esta es mi cuarta ves que me hospedo en este hotel y lo único que está ves fué diferente es que me cobraron un resort fee de $12.95 plus tax por noche. Y antes en el pago que hacía en expedía era el total definitivo, osea no pagaba nada más adicional al hacer el check in en el hotel. Ahora el total de Expedia aunque diga que incluye los fee y tax, pues no es así. Expedia debería aclarar eso en sus descripciones o incluirlo en el total definitivo. En Resumen quitando ese inconveniente del resort fee que no está claro via Expedia, excelente opción para quedarse. Espero sigan así y mejorando, y sobre todo con los buenos precios. ✌🙌

Facility was very quiet at night, no noisy people. Breakfast was good with eggs, sausage, oatmeal, cereal, bread, waffles, etc. - not just bread items. Room was clean, a/c sounded strange but worked well. Shower water pressure was very low. Pool was out of order which was strange. Would go to again!
