Reviews

Front door kept propped open at night with no security - soiled sheets stained with brown spots cigaret holes and hard clumps inside- one person staff - toilet flooded I was forced to clean up with towels and small kitchen mop- janitor came in plunged the toilet then left without fixing the issue then handed me a mop to clean - was so loud in the hallway every night you could hear everything if someone knocked on the door next to you even 2 doors down it was as if they knocked on your door - one night someone entered my room noticed me in the bed and I must me in the wrong room then left- no ice machine - felt more like a homeless shelter than a hotel. On the positive they did let me check out late and the air conditioning worked great. I felt bad for the one guy on staff because he seemed like he meant well but just over worked and under staffed.

Not recommended at all very unsanitary and a lot of traffic around

Arrived at the hotel and saw a tall person in a short red dress strolling up and down outside the reception. She pointed out (in a fairly deep voice) where the night window was. I rang and after several minutes someone came. Check in took several minutes while he arranged a room for me - he sent me to a neighbouring motel 200m or so down the road. I assume the owners have two (or more) hotels and it is luck as to which one you get. Room was OK. Rather shabby, but nothing really wrong with it. Would have been nice to have a microwave oven or at least a kettle to boil water in. Internet didn't work.

Sketchy. Felt like it was a trap house. Homeless people outside and inside. Loud and felt unsafe. Don’t stay!

Location very sketchy. TV & phone hooked up but didn’t work. Door dead bolt didn’t lock. Smoke alarm missing. Very loud neighbors and dogs across hall ALL THRU NIGHT and no phone to call front desk. Desk clerk friendly but spoke no English.

n/a dirty

Check in was a bit suspicious wanted it pay with a credit card, they wanted cash, check in was me talking to the manager on a cell phone, cash was given to the person covering the desk. Over charged $15 (no change available. Room was probably worse room ever! I will never stay at a HOWARD JOHNSON again.

No staff available most often. Had to wait for staff to open the office for check in. The surroundings, parking, hallways, stairs are dirty. Tiles in the bathroom were cracked. Noisy AC/Heater. Door entrance handle needs repair. No cups available for the coffee maker. Microwave was dirty and need repair. Drawers were dirty...
-
To start they didn't have the room I reserved. Second the room they gave me had a broken TV no remote and the room had not been recently cleaned. We had fake eyelashes left on the night stand, a used tooth brush by the AC, and the bathtub had green mold so I had to put a towel on the tub floor to shower.

Tedible place smell so bad

Absolutely nothing about this place was good. Did not like a single thing. We were there less than 30 minutes before grabbing our stuff and literally running out of there to a different hotel. Everything!!!! This place was horrible. We had booked 3 rooms. It was a fire hazard. No smoke alarms, cords to heaters were sliced and spliced together with electrical tape and looked like they have caught fire before. Everything was dirty. The white sheets were no longer white and so dirty and nasty. The TVs had no power cords, bathrooms had no toilet paper. The sink drains were missing and the pipes under were bad so water just poured through the sink to the floor. The toilet was so disgusting I was not about to touch it. The guy at the front desk kept trying to force me to pay cash and I kept telling him I only had card he kept insisting. So glad I didn't so that I could get a refund, because we lasted barely 30 minutes before leaving and finding somewhere else way better!! The drawers in all 3 rooms were full of random stuff, all brand new. Guessing the hotel was used to fence stolen items and sell drugs.
