Stopped for one night on our way to South Carolina with the kids since it was right next to the highway and we had planned arriving late. I was very disapointed. I was charged twice for the same room. Front desk staff was very annoyed that I wanted things cleared up and said I was surely responsible for the mistake...... More

I was not impressed by the greating that I recieved at the front desk when I checked in. I thought I might have been bothering the people by the way they acted by showing up. The room was ok and seemed to be freshly painted and it did have a refrigerator and microwave and coffee maker. None of which i... More

This hotel used to be our tried and true standby when traveling to Washington, D.C. for Thanksgiving. However, it has deteriorated over the years with little renovation. Even the free continental breakfast was rather skimpy this year. In addition, having used a discount from AARP, we were initially assigned a remote room where the chain lock had been removed from...

I needed a cheap room when I was in Newark looking for an apartment. This was conveniently pretty close to UD's campus and, other than just looking a bit old and run down, my room was clean and reasonably comfortable.The free breakfast is really good and there's wifi. I would say it definitely met my expectations for the price and... More

It was dark, and we needed a place to stay. Lucky for us we found the HJ! Front desk could not have been nicer. Room was close to the door. Wonderful breakfast the next morning. More

Terrible, disgusting, not too much else to say. Sleepaway bed had blood stains and mold on mattress, discovered stray cat sleeping in our room upon check-in. Everythign was so disgusting! More

Was pleasantly surprised with our stay here. The outside appearance of the building looks old and possibly run down, so we were worried. But once inside, we found our room to be just fine. It was clean, and well kept. The bed was quite comfortable and we had a fridge, microwave and alarm clock - all of which worked !... More

Had we been able to focus our eyes we would not have stayed, this place was dirty. I have spent hours just trying to report the condition of the Howard Johnson's Motel in Newark, DE. "No Security" entering from the parking lot (the locking mechanism had been destroyed). We asked for a suite on the ground floor and had to... More

I needed a bed for a few hours and it was exactly that. If you are sensitive to smoke this may not bee the place for you to stay. Although the rooms were non-smoking they have not replaced the hall carpet or ceiling tile. Like a bar at 6AM. I did not get a chance to try the breakfast bar.... More
