The room was O.K. Glad we brought our own quilts. It was very cold & there were only thin covers on the bed, but the heater did work good. I don't like the $75.00 deposit on the room! They said it would be refunded in about 10 days. Nothing fancy, no blow dryer. If we get our deposit back I guess it was worth the money. Good location.

This used to be a good hotel to stay in but it is run down now. It’s says on website they have free breakfast and they only had granola bars and coffee. They used to have a good breakfast. It is usually our go to hotel but we will not longer be staying there. The staff was nice. The water in the sink would not turn hot. We had a coffee maker in the room with no coffee and cups.

We honestly booked here to see if the reviews were actually that bad. They are not. This is a tourist location and rooms have average wear but NO ROACHES or BUGS as previous reviews show. The so called roaches are what is southern folk know as “stink bugs”. They are annoying but not roaches. They were none there when we stayed and were pleasantly surprised that the room was clean, Everything worked. For the $$ , this is a great option. If you want to throw $200 a night at somewhere to sleep and shower feel free, but we would rather use that money to go sightseeing or shopping. Make this a stop if you value your money. Staff was great as well.

It is advertised that there is a breakfast included, in the room it is advertised in a Howard Johnson book that the stay includes a free full hot breakfast. There was no such thing at all. The breakfast was cold pop tarts with no way to toast them and granola bars. The only thing to drink was coffee. There was also trash scattered on the counter, all of which I have pictures of. There was no ice bucket in my room and the phone was hidden in the bedside table.I had no maid service the entire week I was there. The heated pool was nice, but they clean the deck area about as often as they cleaned my room, there were discarded items in several places on the deck that stated in the same spots the whole week. I will not be staying at this hotel ever again. This is a warning to everyone that is looking at this hotel, please Don’t waste your money at this place.

There was never anyone at the front desk, the “breakfast” that was supposed to be included was just granola bars and the doors were locked when breakfast was supposed to be available. There was a paper with phone numbers to call because it said they were on the property but no one answered any of the numbers. You can’t get anyone at all to answer the phone. The pool wasn’t opened and we were not informed of the $75 incidental fee until after we were already checking in dont recommend unless your only looking for a cheap place to sleep. The room was decently cleaned.

Not continental breakfast, more like snacks

Room and hotel was as to be expected with this price point. Beds were very comfortable. Our main issue was with the “continental breakfast”. Their posted breakfast hours are 8-10am. We went down at 9:17am and there were a few granola bars and one pop tart, not even a toaster. They did have coffee but we aren’t coffee drinkers so I can’t speak on that (it didn’t look like anything special). I understand that breakfast can get picked over but it’s not like we came down 5 minutes before they closed, and if you’re only serving granola bars they aren’t that hard to restock. Not to mention I checked the following two mornings of our stay (earlier than the first day) and there was even less, 3 total granola bars the second day and none on the last! I know all continental breakfasts are different from hotel to hotel. I wasn’t necessarily expecting eggs and bacon but some toast, bagels, yogurt, cereal, or even those prepackaged danishes would have been nice. I picked this hotel partially for the breakfast and unfortunately we had to go out because I require more than a granola bar and coffee for my morning meal.

I stayed with my kids sept. 1-4th. I paid $28 a night so i cant complain too much. With that being said, the staff was not friendly! Room floor felt disgusting!! The room light did not work but thankfully we had a lamp to use. It advertised breakfast which meant, they had granola bars. No coffee machine but there was coffee ground packets along with sugars lol. They do have pools on site. 1 indoor and 1 outdoor. My kids did utilize. The beds were ok. Again, we paid $28 a night so we received what we paid for. Other then that, the location was good. Right across from a restaurant. walking distance from the titanic museum. in View of the Hollywood wax museum. If you're wanting something cheap but in the middle of things, then yes this is the place. I probably would not stay here again. Being the pool was the only decent thing. It took 7 days to receive my deposit back.

The outdoor pool was disgusting. Indoor pool was warm and good. Checked in to room and it had no wash cloths or working air conditioning. Told staff of ac issue and got moved to a different room. Second room had 1 normal towel and 3 scratchy pool towels. Still no wash cloth for bath. No hand towels, but the hand towel rack was also broken off the wall and under the sink. Room had coffee, but no coffee pot, iron holder but no iron. Main lamp had no shade. Site is listed as breakfast included. Went down for breakfast and it was coffee and granola bars. Another person in my group had transition strip from floor to tile held down with duct tape. Bathroom light held up by duct tape. Also only 1 towel in their room. The elevator was broken and the handicap ramp to the second floor had broken glass throughout. Will never stay here again.
