6/10 Good

The staff was very friendly, otherwise I would give it 1 star. I remember when Howard Johnson was the standard for nice accommodations, but this one seems to have furniture and carpet from long, long ago during the glory days. The wood furniture is very worn. The carpet in the office and hall smells like old mildew. The "light breakfast" was 2 types of cereal, milk, coffee, hot water, instant oatmeal packets and apple and orange juice. In fairness, the bed was very comfortable.

We were there only for 1 night...no cups in the room, no coffee maker in the room, breakfast was to be continental, but was dry cereal, coffee, no juice, milk was warm and apples. Oh and oatmeal...The fixtures in the shower were loose...the desk person in the morning was dressed like was unprofessional and Not a Wyndom employee. The TV remote did not work and no lists of the channels that were available. The hotel as a whole was a tired one!

This is just a solid hotel choice. Nothing fancy or over-the-top, but absolutely nothing wrong with this place. Kind staff, clean rooms and great location at an affordable price.

Check in was easy and front desk personnel very pleasant. Room was very clean, only negative is that there were only 3 pillows on each bed and there were 4 adults. Bed was comfortable.

4/10 Fair

There were large stains on the bedding. What looked like dried blood. Because the stains were so large and so dark, there is no way that housekeeping or hotel staff would not have seen them. It is disgusting that the beds were made up as clean this way.

2/10 Poor

the room was clean but old and in need of renovations bad had to slam door to get it to shut securely the had no breakfast for is the morning of check out we went to check on it at 8 AM Nothing were there. Chairs were stacked up on top. The table, outside of buildings fallen apart no one was at the counter, you had to take. Pick the phone up to call somebody to check in when we checked out, they just had a basket there that said, leave your keys here we'll take care of the rest.They charged a hundred dollar deposit and also charged you for your room. It's the type of hotel that you kind of even wonder. If you're even gonna get your deposit back.Thank you guys for bad shape, rough service, they should not advertise free breakfast. Just one, they don't have one.That is one of the decisions that I chose that for I had to take the kids and my wife to mcdonald's.And spend forty dollars to get breakfast
