I had enough hot water in the... More

My wife and I stay at the Howard Johnson of Toms River often and upon our arrival we are greeted by Margaret and Laurie with warmth and friendliness.They consistently go beyond their job duties and exceed them to help us with all our needs. WE WISH EVERY HOTEL HAD A FRONT DESK STAFF LIKE THEM. More

I have never been on such a long business trip, but I have to say spending six weeks in a hotel I initially thought would be a grueling experience. The experience turned out to be a very... More
