My wife and I enjoyed the stay. The property was easy to find and located close to the family members we were visiting. We found the breakfast quite adequate and the area clean.

Out stay at the Howard Johnson was very enjoyable. The room was just what we needed. We had a refigerator, microwave oven and coffee pot; the room was extremely clean and the cleaning staff came promptly every day. For the price, you couldn't beat it. I would definitely recommend this hotel to my friends and family. Satisfied customer:)!
