This was a mess. The property might be under renovation, but it is absolutely not done. Pool was condemned. Check in was very slow and seemed like they couldn’t find a room even though there were only 8 cars in the parking lot. I would call it a $49 motel. Not $270.

Nasty and way overpriced

The stay here was awful the first thing we seen pulling up was a man sleeping in the parking lot. Then we went to check in and the man at the desk I belive his name was dave was rude. Then we get to the room we had the poolside view we planned to swim but the pool was closed, but that wasnt the worst part the pool area was filled with beds and lamps from other rooms. In our room we couldnt take a shower because the tub and shower was so disgusting. There was a giant whole in the wall with a board barely covering it, and 160 a night for this place is definitly way overpriced.

Disaster Stay

Howard Johnson hotel is a terrible place to stay. Staff was friendly but overwhelmed. Gave me a room key for a room that had the air conditioner siting on the floor. Opps they said we gave u the wrong room. Next room was dirty, only 2 towels no wash cloths for 4 people. Manager gave us 1 more wash cloth and 2 worn out towels. When we left the room we had to update keys every time. Amenity were access to pool which was closed. Wifi slow and breakfast none served.

Stains on the bed skirts and curtains, we were so grossed out by tub we didn't even shower, and our sink didn't drain! Oh and we had left overs in our fridge from who knows when, moldy chicken salad!!!! Staff was rude and acted as if the issues were our fault! I see them going under quickly!!!

Don’t waste your money in this place!

We did not stay and would hope to be able to get refunded. The hotel was absolutely horrible. It was filthy! The bed was clearly laid on. Dust and hair everywhere. The bathtub was dingy, grimy, sickening. The elevators and hallways smelled. There were transients in the hallway. People laying in the hallways. The website talked about essential travelers but this requirement was very clearly not being met. The manager was not empathetic and although he offered a different room, why would we stay in a place that was clearly not well kept.

Absolute Disgust

Upon check-in, we were informed that the pool was closed and had been for a while now. The buffet breakfast that was offered was an intercontinental upon arrival. The overall cleanliness of the lobby and hallways was disgusting. The elevator’s floor tiles were broken and missing in spots. There was trash throughout the hallway to the room. The blanket was strung across the bed and it was not made and the sheets had very large noticeable stains on them. The floor hadn’t been vacuumed and the bathroom had bugs and trash all over the floor with stained towels. People are also living in the hotel with their children.

Was not a pleasant stay at all. Pics are not what you get at this hotel. Our room was not cleaned, had NO pillowcases on pillows. No towels in bathroom. Soaps were used and from other hotels. When I asked for pillowcases and towels, they gave me one towel. Stating they ran out because if full rooms. Had to buy towels, and pillow to use. Pool was "temporarily" closed but by looks of it has not been used for a while, there were lamps and desks in there being used as storage room. By far one of the worst stays I have had in a hotel.

This property was there very worst hotel I have ever rented. The money I paid for the night here We could've went to a drug and cockroach hotel and had a way cleaner room The pool and hot tub were not working and filled in with storage stuff. They are both indoors. This was the only reason I booked this room. No free breakfast like the add stated. The furniture had rips the room never heated up even with the thermostat set at 86. Froze all night the elevator did not seem safe we didn't feel safe enough and uncomfortable that we left at 3am in the morning. Didn't arrive untill 5:30. When we arrived I was thinking the hotel was closed down. Furniture and mattresses were all out front. I will never stay here again. You couldn't pay me enough to stay here. They wouldn't refund any of my money so I was stuck.

Property slightly run down, however they was showing signs of trying to get things in order...They had people fixing things. The hotel was dirty. The elevator and hallways was the dirtiest. Then room was a little unprofessional...probably perfect for some young kids fresh outta highschool going on a vacation beach adventure and get tor up at night..it would be perfect for a crowd like that ..they probably wouldn't complain.. staff was friendly didn't bother us much. They gave extra towels and extra toilet paper when needed they didn't harass you ... The place just seem like it needed a really good carpet scrubbing some wiping down of the walls , and just a little bit more money put into the place.. I want to say the bed skirt was a king put on a queen so it was kind of draping on the floor that's unprofessional.... If they was to put a little bit more money and bring the place back to life and give the carpets a great carpet cleaning. The place would be decent... It was not rowdy it was not unsafe the two nights we went there... Just a little dirty

Worst hotel stay ever.

This hotel was the worst place my Husband and I have ever stayed! We will never be staying at a Wyndham hotel in the future. The first room we were given had a air conditioner that had blow the outlet and melted the plug. When we went to the desk he was overall nice about getting us a new room but made sure it was clear that it was such an inconvenience to him! In our 2nd room (non-smoking room) we were met with an overwhelming scent of cigarette smoke but since the AC worked, we said screw it, he’s just going to tell us it’s either too big of a deal or that there is no more rooms! Upon further inspection there was cigarette burn marks all over the walls, the bathroom tub was moldy, the bed only had a sheet on it that looked dirty, and there was a shopping bag over the fire alarm. We were so disgusted with the room we used our own blankets on top of the bed so we did t have to sleep directly on it! Overall, worst hotel experience ever! Wyndham will be on our NO GO list for sure!

I can’t complain much for the price paid. It was cheap enough and the room was clean. However, it is a very old hotel. The indoor pool is currently not operational. There was no cart be available to transport luggage from your vehicle to your room. we asked for a rollaway bed and was told it was not available. The television does not have local channels. Just Roku. I had to go downstairs to go get a remote for the television. There is no phone, coffee, maker, or microwave in the room. There is no continental breakfast or coffee in the lobby. It served its purpose. I just needed a place to stay after the game.
