Males smoking weed in front of the property. The entire property including our non smoking room smelled like cigarettes and weed. There was bullet proof glass window at the check in counter. It seemed like an apartment building where people live. Would not recommend to anyone.

The cost was reasonable but the smell of smoke in a non smoking room and what appeared to be ashes on a wall ridge between the 2 bed was not very pleasant to see or smell.

To many homeless people, security guard was not doing his job, place was dirty outside of the property, walkways inside smell like weed. You walk outside and had people watching you to see what you doing. Did not feel safe at all.

The first impression of this hotel was, what have we gotten our self into? The outside area did not look safe and when our uber driver dropped us off, he asked, did we have a car parked here because the hotel was behind some car parking lot. We asked to see the room before we checked in. We had 2 rooms. We were shown one room and it was fine. After we committed to stay and we went to the other room, the bathroom was horrible. It looked like the drain in the tub had stopped up and there were black stuff half the way up the tub. The hotel service did change us to a different after we brought it to their attention. We ate breakfast there the next morning and that food was really good. We will be staying at this hotel again.

Found 3 cockroaches in the room and room was dirty with settled dust that didnt seem to have been cleaned for months. Bathroom ceiling had peeled paint and could have been cleaner! Carpets around 1st floor hallway seemed old, but didnt have any bad smell.

Howard Johnson sucks - do not book
It was very disgusting. Hair in tub, stains on bed sheets and pillows. Non smoking but smelt of marijuana and cigarettes. No shuttle like other hotels around the area to the airport. Very sketch area and people. Would not recommend to my worst my emeny. Wife and son got rashes, and we stayed literally for our layover which was the same day. They probably got bed bugs too. This place is worse then a redroof inn.

In a pinch…like a glitch that shuts it all down!
The hotel was in a questionable location, but near the airport, so I guess that was a pro. It seemed rundown and when we walked to our room, the second floor hall at one point smelled distinctly like vomit. Also, the website description said it had an airport shuttle, but when we called and asked, they said they didn’t. We heard another guest asking about this too when we checked in. The room was ok, meaning it at least had a bed and decent AC, but I would likely not stay there in the future. Given that we had a canceled flight during the worst day to travel this summer, this hotel at least gave us a cheap, unexpected place to stay.

This wasn’t what we expected from the photos. Above all it felt very unsafe. We were looking for a safe place to stay before a trip and this was not it. Our room was filthy. There were stains on the floor, the walls and the bed. The carpet was literally sticky. The bed was uncomfortable, the bathroom floor and tub creaked loudly when you stepped on it which wasn’t great for waking others up at night. The walls seemed paper thin. Incredibly disappointing stay. Do not book this place.
