Thank you for your review, but are you sure that this was our hotel? With the Howard Johnson standards, they would not permit exposed wires, stained mattresses or ripped carpet. Please contact us if this is truly our hotel so that these issues can be addressed. More

I came to the hotel for a weekend convention. According to the convention organizer, the hotel didn't have all the tables set up when they arrived. The tables that were finally brought in were sticky and we had to clean them ourselves. My “first floor” room required taking a flight of stairs. Sleeping room & bathroom were clean, as were... More

Thank you very much for sharing your experience. Being an older hotel, no we do not have an elevator, but with 2 floors, we usually find it easy to accommodate all of our less agile guests. Hotel policy is to take an authorization on a credit card upon arrival or take payment in cash at time of check in. Truly... More

No frills, thin walls, college sports team in town making noise all night. It's fine for a quick one night stop over on a long road trip but I wouldn't stay longer than that.

Being a leisure hotel we are proud to be able to house many of the out of town sports teams coming to the area to compete as their host hotel. Please come back and see us... More
