Absolutely horrible! The room had broken bed board that were peeling and there were no room amenities like shampoo or soap. Just to name a few. I will never stay here again but thought for one night to take my kid to college would be ok, it was NOT! Never again.

I didn't expect it to be a motel so I'm trying to be generous with my review. The existing furniture in the room was old and stained, there was tissue paper shoved into the peep hole. Staff was polite. Room walls are thin you can hear normal level conversation of adjoining rooms. Very loud freeway noise and for some reason a man was standing on his car in front of my room peeing on the parking lot. I didn't know Howard Johnson was a motel chain I thought it was just a regular hotel like holiday inn. So I accept the fault with my booking here. Again though, the staff are very kind

Getting the room open was difficult, I had to enlist the aid of the desk clerk. The hallway (outdoor hallway) stank of cigars (guy sitting 3 doors down was smoking one). The property is right on the freeway and is very loud. Also, it seems to be in a less desirable part of town.
