First things first. We are snowbirds from WI. I found a listing for this property on Craigslist. I contacted the Gen. Manager (Dawn) and worked out the logistics of a 1 to 2 month stay. Upon arrival at Howard Johnson the staff welcomed us like long lost relatives which made our arrival very pleasant. We are going on our third... More

This motel is kind of tricky to get to, expecially at night, and is next to not one but two huge highways (I-95 and JTB), so you most certainly hear a lot of traffic noise unless you run the fan all night, which is what I did. The nicest part of the motel is the lobby--much nicer and more plush... More

First let me say that the young woman at the counter was very sweet. There was nothing she could do about the rooms though. The first room, supposedly non-smoking, smelled like stale cigarette smoke. The second room she showed us smelled mildewy. It being late at night with a traffic jam on I95, we did not press on to another... More

We only stayed at the Howard Johnson for one night, thankfully. We travelled up from Orlando to Jacksonville and had to stay over before catching the Cruise Ship in the morning. The Hotel itself is in the middle of nowhere, right next to a busy freeway. We dropped our hire car off at the Airport and a share taxi to... More

We stayed on just a weekend visit! I traveled with my son, fiance, & his kids to visit family in the area. We enjoyed bagels & cereal for breakfast each morning, as well as the fitness center. The staff was very pleasant from the time we walked in the door to the time we left. If we needed extra towels... More

Based on "average" ratings, we booked a 3-night stay this past weekend (Oct 7-10,2011). Location not easy to access; mold on tile along top edge of tub requiring request to have it cleaned to no avail; minimal housekeeping service. Facility recently taken over by bank. More

Took a 7 day cruise out of JAX and needed a hotel with door to door valet service to and from cruise port with free secure parking and free shuttle. Bingo! the Howard Johnson Inn and Suites ! Comfortable room, secure location, excellent friendly staff with superior service. Owners live on site and personally see to all guests needs with... More
