I come to this area fairly often but have never stayed at this hotel before. In fact, have never stayed at a Howard Johnson before. I knew the hotel was acceptable because some friends stayed there in the past, during the previous ownership and decided to try it because the price was right. At check in the desk clerk was... More

I travel to Altamonte Springs occasionally for business. The last time I traveled to Altamonte Springs in the fall of 2010, I stayed at this hotel but it was under a different name, Magnuson, I believe. Going back this past week I had no intention to stay at this hotel due to my last visit. I noticed the sign changed... More

I arrived at the hotel in the evening. After noticing my first room had filthy carpet, a stained bedspread,a dirty coffee pot carafe, beat up furniture and marred walls I decided to exit and requested a refund.

We had two rooms at this hotel during one of the busiest weeks (we were told) of the year for Orlando tourism (after Christmas).

Good luck with that. If you travel during winter months don't expect your children to use the pool the water is FREEZING!... More

Stayed for 4 nights in the Executive King behind the waterfall. The rooms were clean. First day there were not any bath towels. Told them about it and they said it would take 1-2 hours(as they were busy), but ended up taking 4+ to get them. The king bed was pretty comfortable for a hotel like this. The sofa bed... More

We stayed for one night while attending a hockey tournament. The rooms were very clean, no odors like cigarette smoke, pool was not heated but the pool area was very relaxing. The complimentary full breakfeast was impressive as was the breakfeast eating area. More

Visited for a comedy show and found the hotel to be very nice. Room was large, clean and comfortable. Beds were extremely comfortable. Pool looked wonderful, wish we had more time to spend there. The staff was friendly and welcoming. Very nice stay. More
