Not positive about the exact date of arrival. The folks here were pleasant, happy to see you, got things right, etc. Checkout was very quick. The pool is very nice. My only comment would be a slightly bigger breakfast, but it's okay for the price. Pleasant weekend near the shore with quite a selection of eateries in the area. more

I wish I could find a hotel like this everywhere I stay. Aside from a short wait to check in and out at the front desk, I had no complaints. I was satisfied with my clean, well-designed, and relatively quiet room, and I was treated with as much courtesy as I would expect at a more expensive hotel. The staff... more

We chose this hotel out of our AAA guidebook. We were passing through the area for one night. This is the most disgusting place I have ever stayed in my entire life. We would have checked out but it was getting late and the only other hotel in the area did not look much better from the outside. The room... more

This hotel has been recently updated and has a fresh look. The rooms were weel maintained. The restaurant food was good and the desk service was outstanding. Mr. Janiszewski was very pleasant and polite and efficient. We enjoyed this stay very much! more

We stayed overnight after a day trip down at Seaside. I've stayed at this hotel before and really enjoyed it and I have to say I enjoyed our overnight stay very much. The front desk service was wonderful, the room was very nice. We stayed in 226(B) and the furniture was beautiful, the desk was spacious and the bed was... more

My fiance & I stayed at the Howard Johnson over the wknd. We were able to see the room before we decided if we wanted to stay. The room was okay (old looking & not up to date!) but wayyyy overpriced. For a jacuzzi room for one night they charged us a total of $312.98. Way over priced! Needless to... more

My family and I are locals and have lived in the area for almost 30 years. So naturally when it came time to suggest a local hotel to my wedding guests we went with the Howard Johnson's. It was not the most reasonably priced hotel in its category, but because of its amenities and location we decided to suggest this... more

I stayed at this hotel when visiting with family at the Jersey Shore. I was disappointed with the quality of the room which was clean but clearly in need of sprucing up. The package I purchased included an awful breakfast which I ended up skipping after looking at the uninspired pre-packaged offerings. There are much better choices within the same... more
