When I called to make the last minute reservations, the gal at that answered the phone was very pleasant. When I got there she rememberd my name, which was very refreshing. The room was set up nice. It felt clean. When I went for breakfast the next day, the selection was a bit thin, but good nonetheless. I wasnt expecting... More

On booking the Hotel we requested a non smoking room, on our arrival at the Hotel we were met by a very scruffy person at the reception desk. The person made absolutely no communication with us and it was even necessary for us to ask him where the room was. The room we were given was 115 and on opening... More

On 03/31/12, my friend and i checked in at this hotel. When we first walked in the room we were greeted by squeaks from the floor, the room had a musty odor and the room was outdated. The first night we had to fight of some type of small black flying bugs. The second night the bugs got worst. The... More

We were initially directed to a room that hadn't been prepared, so having to... More

This was the first time I stayed at the Howard Johnson Airport Downtown in Phoenix. The room was clean. The staff was helpful. It was conveniently located and reasonably priced. They were happy to accommodate our very late arrival (our flight didn't get in until after midnight).

The room was large and comfortable, and the staff friendly and helpful. The shuttle to the airport was incredibly quick to pick us up, and this hotel is only minutes from the airport. We had an early morning flight, no problem! Breakfast started at 5:30.

We left our car at the hotel during a 6-day trip to Schenectady, NY in November 2011. The shuttle picked us up in front of the hotel, then at the airport upon our return. The price was excellent. It was a very pleasant experience, one we will take advantage of again.

My boyfriend and I stayed here our last night in Phoenix and it was an awful experience. It was very musky and outdated. The television worked after my boyfriend was instructed by the manager to "beat on it a few times," the floors creaked under us like they were improperly replaced, my card was charged twice the amount of the...
