Ok, grabbed a room here. 109 to be specific. Here's our horror story. Guy at the front desk was absolutely wierd. Creeped us all out. Get into room. It reeks. Heavy moldy odor. Just not right. Hairs on our sheets! Room stinks! Very dark and dingey in room! Inside of door only 1/2 painted, looked like to cover up some... more

I had a reservation at this Howard Johnson and became sick the night before I was to stay there, Mar. 27th. About 8:30 am the morning of Mar. 26th I cancelled my reservation since I was too sick to travel. They refused to refund my night's stay even though I was more than 24 hours before I was to arrive.... more

We tought Howard Johnson is a good motel and we could hardly make a mistake with the chain. But unfortunately, we had the worst experience on our whole trip. The motel itself looks old but ok, the rooms are the problem. Our room was dirty and filthy, the carpet had stains, the bathroom wasn't cleaned very well and the bed... more

For starters, I was lied to about the price of the room when I called prior to my trip. The service people were rude and unhelpful with anything. An overall bad experience. Also, the room was hardly clean. Found dirty paper towels underneath the bed. more

Never stay at this hotel unless you are desperate. We were travelling from Canada to Lompoc California and found the hotel in one of the discount hotel booklets. Because we only wanted a bed for one night and the hotel was reasonably price we booked into the Howard Johnson in Redding California. Upon arriving we were told we could only... more

What a dump!!!! I got bed bug bites all over and bed creaks even if you turn slowly....smelly, smelly. Tried their other rooms but all the same. We arrived late and tired with a child so my husband and i had no choice.....STAY AWAY from this hotel no matter what the price is offered!!!!!! more

HOTWIRE warning...I booked this hotel on HOTWIRE which calls it a 2 star. I assumed it was true. To my suprise it is more like a 1/2 star. It is a run down 1960's 2 story that has unhygenic and unsafe feeling. I called HOTWIRE they say there stars are based on location not condition. The front desk staff also... more

I had stayed at two different Days Inn properties when I traveled from L.A. to Seattle and, while they were obviously not five-star hotels, they were fine for overnight stays. So I booked a stay at the Howard Johnson, a Days Inn/Wyndham partner, when directed there via the Days Inn website for my trip back to L.A. from Seattle. I... more

My wife and I stayed in the Howard Johnson Express in Redding on our way back from visiting family in Oregon. It was without a doubt the absolute worst hotel experience we've ever had. The room was filled with water stains all throughout. Cobwebs were on the lamps, the corners, the floors and such. Only two smallish towels were given... more
