I booked a room online for one night in September 2011 (paid in full). I was traveling alone and it was my first time to Iowa. I was concerned about them not holding my room because my flight came in around 1am, so I called a week in advance to confirm my reservation and let them know I would be...

Rooms:
I’m not going to lie, the structure that the Howard Johnson Cedar Rapids is based in is OLD. The rooms are small, the walls are cold concrete, the carpet is quite worn, and the air is a little stale. However, this aged “shell” serves as home to Howard Johnson-grade amenities. Bed is good quality; clean and comfortable. Everything functions...

For all the negative reviews, this is a pay for what you get hotel. If you want 5 star stay somewhere else. This is a good hotel for the 50.00 we paid for it. Rooms were clean, with free wifi, and a free breakfast. Only negative thing about it was the strong smoke smell in the hallways. Would recommend again...

It is very average. Clean. Free wireless internet. The free continental breakfast was cereal, bagles, english muffins, muffins, apples and doughnuts. No toast or waffles. Very limited selection. But, we got the room really cheap on Hotwire! $29!

I don't understand all the negative reviews. Checked in last night around 10:30pm with Angie, who was pleasant and helpful. My family travels the country for a living - staying in 50+ hotels every year. This HoJo is exactly the type of hotel we prefer - inexpensive, but with plenty of perks.
Our room (2 beds) is clean and spacious!...

This is an excellent change from most chain hotels. Angie and her staff truly care about your comfort and convenience. I would recommend you give it a try any enjoy true hospitality at its finest. I will be back next week for business travel.

In Cedar Rapids on business for several weeks. When I arrived here the front desk was very friendly and nice. I got checked in and made my way up to my room. As I was walking to my room through the hallway, I noticed that it had not been vaccumed in quite some time, and that there was a trail...

This hotel was not worth the value - I stayed only because we checked in so late that we were tired and needed sleep. The room looks like a cell - concrete walls painted yellow and very small... the red carpet is covering a lumpy concrete floor. The beds are questionable - and the pillows are lumpy as others stated....

It is an unfortunate reality that bed bugs are becoming a very big problem in our nation due to the increase of world travelers. This affliction has hit the motel business especially hard, and this infestation is taking place in every category of vacation properties from Two-Star to Five-Star rated accommodations.
All travelers should be aware of the exponential increase...

Driving up to the hotel my family was less than thrilled. It is hard to put into words why it was unwelcoming, but the parking lot was eerily empty at 5:00 pm and the hotel just looked sketchy. Upon walking in to the lobby to check I was greeted by a group of "regulars" sitting in the lobby snickering at...
