Repeating the many other reviews .... filthy dirty place and overpriced. Not at all like other quality HoJo's I've been in. Literally there was a pizza box (with leftover slices) and spilled soda from bottles in a clothes drawer. 5 of 7 light bulbs burnt out. walls, windows, etc filthy with who knows what sprayed over them , seemingly for a few decades. Reserved a King Bed, given room with 2 doubles - with a STRONG urine smell. "Better" room given with all the above issues. Bar next door is great if you don't mind drunks screaming at 2am outside your window. Trains are very loud too. If your AC/fan unit happens to work, keeping it on helps dull the noise. After viewing the stench/scum in the rest of the room, one would be wise to assume they'd get some respiratory infection from whatever bugs are in the ac/fan unit, however. So very sad that such a place in a unique setting has been trashed & uncared for. If you don't mind urine smell, other body fluids spewed on walls/bedspreads, and disease - stay here! bring your antibiotics! Soap and hard work doesn't cost much - owners need to get off their rear and care for those shelling out money .... honor what you offer.

The rooms were musty...we had no soap or shampoo...half a roll of toilet paper...and the front desk staff would do nothing about a bunch of drunks having a party in the hotel parking lot. My room was a distance away and I heard everyone untill late in the morning - I feel bad for the people who had rooms close to this party...when I called the front desk the girl said she would have her boss call me but they never called us back. When I called up again ... I kid you not....she hung up on me.I will never stay at this hotel or any Howard Johnsons again.

I was very happy with my stay here. I have stayed alone for business and have also been here with my family to visit the Grand Canyon. Everything was great and we had no complaints. It is not the newest place but considering the owners are not the original owners, there have done a great job maintaining the place and keeping very clean. Unless you can stay in a 5 star hotel for $250 a night, I wouldn't stay anywhere else. It is perfect for the price.

Drove from Las Vegas and was very glad to get there and go to bed. Lobby was OK and staff was fine, the room however was not so good. The bedspreads are old and dirty and need to be replaced, blanket not so sure about. The carpet was dirty but vacuumed in most places, however the carpet around the wall where the sink and dressing area is had not been touched by a vacuum in years! I'm not too nit-picky, but I would like to walk around the room that I've paid good money for and not have to have flip flops on. Wouldn't stay there again.
