The bathroom was disgusting. Black mold in the grout lines in the tile in the shower. The door molding was gross. Some black substance was on it. I called to have it cleaned. They were responsive, but the person who came to clean it thought it was fine. When I pointed it out, he cleaned some areas and was amazed at how good it looked. I assisted with the remainder of the cleaning. The outside doorknob to the bathroom was also missing. We were afraid to sleep in the bed based on the condition of the room. There was coffee but no machine in the room. The continental breakfast was a joke. If there was another hotel vacant, I would have eaten the cost and gone else where. I’ll send an email to Howard Johnson as well hoping for an explanation since I won’t trust their brand going forward. Lastly, the outside picture of the facility when I booked it thru expedia was misleading. This place was a dive compared the photo.
This establishment is old and decrepit. While I don’t expect a five star stay at a roadside motel, for $135 I would hope that I would have clean sheets, at least. Found what looked to be a blood stain of some sort on the sheet on one of the beds. I needed the room for one night only, and couldn’t get out of there fast enough!!

Staff was rude. I booked a one king size room and got put in a two twin bed room. No towels in room. I had to go ask and when I did such staff was rude about giving them to me. Area is a bit unsafe. Nothing but vending machines and they “offers free wifi” they don’t.
Great people wonderful place , all appliances work as they should

This motel was pretty sub-standard and the beds in the room was not that comfortable. The breakfast options the motel offered was pretty substandard and could be improved.
Bathroom was clogged. When asked to fix it the guy who cane to fix it had a bad attitude. When asked what to do if it gets clogged? He said pray to God it doesn’t get clogged again. When we asked to change the incase it gets clogged again he gave a deaf ear. When I went for some towels at the front desk the receptionist said he doesn’t have one. Instead he said go look for the house keeping he’s cleaning the rooms go look for him u might find him in one of the rooms. Ask him and get it from him.
When I arrived at the hotel. I had to wait 2 hours to find another room, because my room was given to someone else. Staff claim that Expedia did not sent them the payment for the room. When given another room after signing another contract for payment.
