“A Comfortable Inn with Great Service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012 via mobile

Faizal and his team provide great, caring service in a clean, comfortable HoJo's near Camelback. Each year we bring our ski camp for kids with disabilities to the Inn. They treat our kids with great care and do everything possible to make our stay comfortable and fun. The kids love the meals and we get a great value for our very limited budget!

“Great for the money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

I travel across the United States, Canada and Europe for business and when forced to spend more nights in a hotel thanks to a water heater failure and subsequent flooding I was not pleased. Luckily, this is quite a bit more than a business grade hotel that I'm accustomed to. Faisal, the manager, booked a room for my family at the last minute when I was worried about finding vacancy. The room was clean and even sported an LCD tv, a refrigerator and a microwave which I certainly wasn't expecting. The hotel gym is adequate if a little on the small side though the pool more than makes up for it. The restaurant and bar are what really made my experience though. The food and service was outstanding. I generally eat out at least 150 nights out of the year at many top restaurants and the Cajun chicken pasta blew me away. The cocktails with dinner were second to none and the servers were very personable. Both bartenders were quite funny and really made me enjoy my few nights there. I was somewhat disappointed to find that the hotel didn't offer a continental breakfast but that's a minor complaint.

The only reason I didn't rate this hotel as five star is due to the fact that it's not the Plaza or Bellagio and doesn't pretend to be. Thanks to Faisal, Lou and Cody for helping make the best out of a bad situation!

“Decent Enough”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

The staff is friendly, the rooms are average. If you expecting the highest quality you will be disappointed. It was a reasonable price per night, and was clean. Would use this hotel again.

“Bar at Howard Johnsons”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012

we were staying at the hotel and decided to go down to the bar for a drink. We had planned on meeting a couple of friends. The bartender should not have been behind the bar. He spent all of his time texting. He was very rude and argumentive. We weren't looking for someone to entertain us but we did expect someone who had a personality at least. We decided to leave after he decided to close before the 10pm time we were told and allowed his friends to smoke inside the bar. We called our friends and decided to go elsewhere. Couldn't believe how a BAD bartender can ruin you night. The hotel was ok but we won't be back. Too many other choices.

Room Tip: I never complain. I usually just don't go back, but this just ruined our stay.

“Holiday Pocono Visit”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011

We recently stayed at HoJo's. The staff were friendly. After reading several reviews, we were hesitant in staying there but we did not have all of the problems that other reviewers did.
However, we were disappointed that they didn't have a continental breakfast, tea bags in the room with the coffee makers, or a larger TV.
