We visit family in the area and we always love our 4-8 days stay at Howard Johnson. We love the very spacious rooms with 2 very comfortable queen size beds. The manager and his staff are very friendly and kind, always checking if they can do more. The hotel has a comfortable country feel. It is very well located, near... More

Does anyone at HOJO realize what this man and this motel is doing to their reputation? If they do know they should be ashamed, In all honesty I cannot even think of an area to give them a point, put one on there that asks if the highway was easily accesible, why yes it was and we couldn't get on...

You get what you pay for, rude hotel/service. Be prepared to pay for your hotel bill IN FULL upon arrival, while still leaving your credit card with them. I think the only reason they still get business due to the fact they're the ONLY hotel in RIDGETOWN. Beds were uncomfortable, heaters didn't work and doors were not insulated properly, which... More

The location is great, as it is very close to the highway. Gas station and restaurant with great quality food within the same vicinity. Rooms are very clean and presentable and have a microwave and fridge in each. Beds are very comfortable. Free wifi (wireless) internet available free of charge. Free parking. More

After reading the negetive reviews i was a liitle skeptical to stay here. My family and i travelled here recently and were surprised that it really wasn't THAT bad. Yes the rooms are older and have outdated bedding and light fixtures, but we were there to sleep. The beds were quite comfy and the towels and linens were clean. I... More

I do frequent business in Ridgetown and always stay at Howard Johnson. The management and staff are very friendly and eager to assist in any way. The easy access to the 401 and close proximity todowntown Ridgetown make it a perfect location. The rooms are spacious, clean and the independent restaurant has a very homey menu. I would describe this... More

I was travelling with my young daughter and stayed at this hotel due to its location being so close to the highway as well as the cheap rate. It was the most disgusting place right from when I walked in. I would have left if it wasn't almost midnight. The front desk clerk had no clue what he was doing... More

Hello, Thank you for the review & the feedback that allows us to improve our property. The front desk clerk is new & under training. The key card machine has been fixed. In regards to the rooms; all our rooms with the single Queen beds are in the back & that’s why clerk had to assign you room at the... More

Exhausted from driving, I saw a sign for a HoJo & decided that would be a good bet to get some sleep & start fresh in the morning. WRONG?! Hotel is VERY CREEPY! I could relate to the other review that referred to the Bates Motel. Decor is straight out of the 70s. It doesn't look like a HoJo at... More

How could Howard Johnson allow the Hotel of Ridgetown to carry its name. Booked 2 rooms in this hotel for one week because of business. Rooms stinking, dirty, door locks don't work, internet not functional, owner pathetic, sad, sad place to stay. More

The check in started with a dispute with reserved price and was only resolved by calling the corporate office. After check in we informed we could not use the hotel hallway as a racoon was in the hallway. After changing into our swimming suits to use the indoor pool we were disapointed to learn the pool was not heated and... More
