Wow, what a pleasent surprise!!
Came across this newly renovated property and we had a great experience. Rooms were very clean, spacious, new and very comfortable. Beds were fabulous.
Staff very warm, met our every request.
We enjoyed ourselves and will definately return.

I had stayed for 3 night in this newly renovated hotel, the feeling there is excellent! The large room with a desk good for working and a sofa for visitor. The large LCD TV and free fast wireless internet make my stay at home. I would recommend this hotel to both tourist and business traveller!

I had read the previous reviews about the Howard Johnson and was quite concerned about staying there. We went ahead and booked for one night taking a gamble. When we arrived we were greeted quite pleasantly by the staff and they were quick to help us. They told us the hotel was under construction and to let them know if there was anything we needed. We liked the secure parking and found our room easily on the second floor. Not knowing what to expect when we opened the door after reading the reviews we breathed a sigh of relief. The room was brand new!!!!!!!!!!! Everything looked great right down to the new carpet and paint. The bathroom was absolutely beautiful with all the new fixtures and granite. The room was quiet though we did hear the trash truck the next morning. We had coffee, juice, bagels and donuts for breakfast. We liked the room/hotel enough to book the next night there. The staff is quick to help with directions and suggestions. I enjoyed my stay at the hotel as well as my family. We plan to stay there again when we go back in a few months. I think the new owner is doing a great job with the hotel and the staff.

We booked a block of 20 rooms for guests attending a wedding nearby. The hotel was undergoing renovations, which they neglected to mention when reservations were made. The furnishings were falling apart (I'm not talking shabby but actually falling apart), many hair dryers, TV remotes and some telephones inoperable. Rubble in the corridors, the lobby was being painted and guests had to walk over drop cloths placed on the floor and hope they didn't get splattered by painter painting the ceiling. All in all a horrendous, not to say embarrassing, situation. Only bright spot was the staff who tried their best to handle an untenable situation.
