“Comfortable and Affordable..A very pleasant stay!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 May 2013 NEW

I stayed at Howard Johnson this past February with a few friends. We chose the hotel because of its proximity to the seemingly endless number of restaurants on Upper James. The hotel was very easy to find from the linc. We were not expecting much from our rooms because we received such a good deal, but were surprised by rooms... More

“Avoid if you can”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 May 2013

Rooms are run down and it gives an impression as if everything is falling apart. There were bugs in the bed - Still getting anti allergic tabs after a 2 night stay. Avoid staying here if you can. It gets quite noisy in the evenings - because of the hooters outlet downstairs. Cleaning staff seems to be trying its best... More

My stay was not a pleasant one. Fighting in adjoining room on Friday night, carried from inside to outside parking lot and then on Saturday night, prostitute and male friends fighting in hallway, police had to be called. You need to change the opinion of your hotel in peoples eyes. If you want it to be a family experience, then... More

“Really Hojo... shame on you.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 April 2013

No need to go into too much detail, hotel is old and not maintained. Threadbear caprets, only half of electric outlets working, only one with cover, breakfast offering looked dangerous, hotel staff uninformed about surroundings, manager apathetic. Bed was surprisingly comfortable.
