What guests think

At Howard Johnson by Wyndham Oklahoma City OKC Airport, Fairgrounds, I40, reviewers frequently praise the low price, hot breakfast, and often clean, comfortable rooms, while also noting the older building, inconsistent upkeep, and a surrounding area that can feel unsafe.

Service is mixed, with many friendly, helpful interactions contrasted by reports of rude front‑desk behavior, strict breakfast rules, and recurring key‑card or deposit frustrations. Facilities are basic: no elevator, an outdoor pool whose condition varies, and Wi‑Fi that is often unreliable. Rooms are generally spacious with comfy beds and patios or balconies, but several guests cite maintenance issues, weak A/C, and occasional pests or odors. A practical pick for value seekers who prioritize a hot breakfast over polish.

Cute hotel, but did get bedbugs! Carpet felt gross on the floor and there was definitely a spot that had something spilled on it. Pool was cold and needed swept around the pool.

I like the fact that the hotel is a too far away from the convention center or Galaxy con takes place every year. The only downfall is they don't have an elevator.

Hotel is in poor shape. No towels in room upon arrival. Torn, stained carpets. No elevator. Roach in rhe refrigerator which hadn't been defrosted and a bunch of tiny roaches around the fridge. Room was supposed to be non-snoking, but smelled like smoke. I can't believe Wyndham would put their name on this facility. Very disappointed.

Pros: The room was clean, well-appointed, and comfortable. Pool was clean, parking lot was mostly clean but could use attention (construction nearby). Cons: very dated, staff were non-existent. NO ELEVATOR which should be something they mention to anyone before assigning a 2nd floor room. Waited 15 minutes to check in, waited again to try and get change for laundry (front desk had no change so the laundry didn't get done), waited another 10 for a pool towel when I eventually gave up. Overall 6/10.

The walls were flaking, there were cockroaches, leftover food under our bed that wasn’t cleaned before we arrived, light bulbs out in the room, toilet clogged and didn’t flush well. Breakfast wasn’t great- gravy for biscuits was watered down. All around the property were people high and many homeless walking around. Just overall the area was shady and the hotel not well maintained.

The room had a pleasant smell when we walked into our BALCONY room. The room was a little dated, but you could tell they have made some updates. Soft bedding, nice bed, clean carpet. In the bathroom -the toilet was 'crooked' (facing forward, but knees towards the door.) The room was very decent though! (TV, Clock, Lamps, Fridge, Microwave, Table, Dresser, Sidetables, RECLINER) The hot breakfast was pretty good. (Waffles, scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, sausage links & patties, cereal, biscuits, gravy, juice, coffee). The only thing I was missing, was a fresh fruit option. From the outside, the hotel exterior looks 'dull', but it's less than a mile from the interstate and there were lots of mainstream and local food options nearby. (Several within walking distance). I THINK I saw a pool in the middle of the property, but I'm not totally sure because of plants/greenery. The hotel does NOT have elevators. Only two floors, though.

Old hotel but they have kept it pretty up to date for the most part. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean in the room and no bugs, loved having a balcony on the 2nd floor sat outside and watched the rain, breakfast was great alot of choices, all around great place to lay your head. There are alot of homeless day and night walkers around the area so dont act surprised when you see them walking around. They seem to care about their hotel and they cant help the homeless situation but its right off the interstate so thats expected but we never once felt unsafe the pool is nice kids swam all day have stayed here alot over the years and its still a good hotel especially for the price

Staff was very rude, in all interactions whether it was my wife or myself the staff was rude and acted inconvenienced and very sarcastic when we interacted with them On our arrival we checked in, and the keys we were provided would not open the entrance we were directed to. As it turns out the lady who checked us in indicated that entrance was locked, but only after we walked back tot wh front desk and told her the keys were broken. She used it on a newrby door and said “it works for me” No additional guidance on allowing the key to remain in the lock briefly before removing, nothing. Just “it works for me” so i asked her to show me how to make it work on the entrance we needed to be using and she rolled her eyes and indicated this wasn’t something she needed to do. Eventually she agreed and then informed me the entrance i was trying to use was locked. Then she left. The other entrance wasn't working until another guest showed us the trick of it. The following day my wife took my two young grandchildren to the breakfast, and while there asked the front desk to provide us a “do not disturb” sign. The man huffed and rolled his eyes before stating “you should have one” in an unfriendly tone. When my wife indicated she did not the man stated that it was in the room, again with the tone of “don't bother me” There was a young woman at the front desk on tuesday morning 10/30 who was very polite and helpful. That was the sole positive interaction.

Used to be my go-to for my frequent business trips, but lately quality has gone down significantly. For the price it's a decent stay however there are multiple things that need to improve. 1. The guy checking people in at the front needs to make sure the keys last for the duration of the stay. Twice I have had to go to the front desk after trying my keys on the doors only to discover they didn't work. 2. They need to put liners in the trash cans in the rooms. 3. There are no lids for the coffee cups in the room. 4.. I noticed small bugs crawling around in the bathroom. Most of these things were minor enough that I would still continue to stay however the final straw was this morning when I was grabbing breakfast to go, the manager or owner or whoever the short guy is decided to run up behind me screaming that I'm not allowed to take breakfast outside and that there is a sign in the breakfast room. I let him know I was about to check out and it was early in the morning. After he continued to rudely reprimand me, I started to go back into the breakfast room and then he steps in front of me and says he will "allow" it this time, but next time he won't. There will not be a next time. I'm not a child and don't appreciate being treated as such so I will not be returning.

We had to get our card for our room fixed multiple times because it did not work. This was after they gave us a key to the wrong room number that was already occupied. Everytime we left and came back our keys would not let us back in the building. The breakfast was good though.

I have stayed at this motel many times and the experience has always been excellent. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The beds are the perfect level of softness and firmness. The hallway and the facility are quiet, making it easy to rest and sleep. Staff is polite and professional, always filling requests quickly and efficiently. Breakfast is a great way to start any day and it is exceptional at this motel. I often travel alone and feel safe as the parking areas are well lit, clean and do not seem to have many people not staying there walking around.

The lady that was checking us in was very rude and wanted to be quiet at times. I was having card problems and in the end I was just short money because I didn’t know there was a deposit. She didn’t tell me the deposit with the first price so my card wasn’t going through because I was short money. I was only quoted the price for two night stay without deposit. No trash bags in the trash cans barely any toilet paper

If I could give zeroes I would. I turned my back and a big black cricket jumped on my pillow. We flushed him. Later another one jumped on my bare leg. We didn’t catch him. Yuck. We felt like stuff was crawling on us all night! The bathroom was gross so we didn’t shower. The carpet was gross so we kept our socks on. After the bugs, breakfast there didn’t sound good. The car next to ours had their windshield bashed in. Not safe. Horrible experience.

The facility and rooms were clean and smelled nice, bed was comfortable, gentleman at the counter that checked me in was super nice. I really enjoyed the stay, especially for the excellent price. If it hadnt been for 2 issues, It would have been 5 stars across the board. 1. It never fails, inevitably some occupants in the building are smoking weed in their rooms, that nasty crap permeates everything, It was overpowering at times. 2. The homeless/mentally disturbed people surrounding the hotel/area at all hours of the night are problematic. I carry at all times, so Im not worried for my own personal safety, but I certainly wouldn't want my daughters or grandchildren staying there, nor would I have felt comfortable having a vehicle there overnight. I took an Uber to the hotel, but I witnessesed many homeless walking around the vehicles, through the parking lot and through the motel yard over the course of the day/night I was there. All in all, the hotel itself was great, its just the other issues that made it less than enjoyable. I understand that the owners/management don't have immediate control over those issues, so I'm not blaming them, necessarily, however there should be some effort made to address the issues I mentioned in the future.

Breakfast was decent. Liked the waffle maker. Would have like to have a variety other than biscuits and gravy every day. The people who seem to keep pets at the hotel don't bother to pick up after their dogs. So dog poop everywhere. I work for a restoration company and it smelled musty like underlying mold or mildew issues. And the prank calls in the middle of the night we're not so fun especially when the security lock was broken in our room . Not to mention the transient-drug addicts surrounding the immediate area made it seem appropriate for a horror movie lol. But for the price I shouldn't complain too much.
