This place is not glamorous but it's very convenient and well priced. My room was comfortable and clean though dated and kind of sparse feeling. The walls are thin so I could hear other guests, but it was no problem. Staff was polite and efficient.

I want to thank them. My daughter left her ipod behind. They did find it in the room and are going to mail it back. Very kind. Honest Chamber persons. :)

We spent the night after going to the seas dogs game. The staff was super nice and welcoming. The room was very clean and nice furniture. The pool was a nice touch the following morning before checking out. Breakfast was very welcomed traveling with two kids. The only thing I would change was I wished there was a heavier blanket on the beds, but the […] heat made the room plenty warm in no time. Great place for cheap money! Read more

must get cigarette smoke smell out of hallway

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Good location and price. The hall ways were dirty and in need of cleaning with tools, rolled up mats and garbabe etc left there for 3 days. Hard to miss these items in need of clean -up. That said, I would stay there again because the price is good and the rooms are clean. Staff was also great.

Place was great. Nice and clean. But why weren't the lamps plugged in?

We arrived late evening and left at 4:30 am for airport. It was quiet, clean and friendly host.

The room was very comfortable and the staff was very helpful. The pool area was very cold...the water was very warm, but the air in the room itself was very cold...all of the adults were commenting on that. I would not go to that hotel in the winter time again for that reason.

We are close to the mall without the mall traffic. my kids love the pool.

The counter help was OK, but the shuttle service was horrible. On the way to the airport that very cold January morning, the driver did not know how to work the heat - had the cold car blasting cold air until we asked him to turn it down until the car was warm. When the car was warm, he then could not remember how to turn the heat back on. Worse, on […] our return, the shuttle driver took 45 minutes to pick ups us. In fact, all other hotel shuttles came and went as did all others who awaited any kind of pick-up. We who waited for the Howard Johnson's shuttle were the last, lone ones waiting for pick-up. The shuttle service is reason to not return to give this - an maybe other - Howard Johnson's any more of our business ever. Read more

Room took a couple of hours just to heat up to tolerable level. Staff said room wasn't used for several days. Wife and I had to go out for a few hours while room heated up. Everything else was ok.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This is a place I will be going again

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Hotel as a little dated, but that means nothing compared to the friendly staff, a nice large and clean room, free Internet, many movie channels and a good starter breakfast, all at a very good price. I would recommend this hotel.

Genuine Expedia guest review

I've stayed here before in late spring, but am not sure I will return again. The bed mattress was decent enough for one person, but the linens were rediculous. I think they were twin linens turned crosswise to fit a double bed. And the adjustable heat was iffy at best. Don't think I'll return. Oh, the breakfast was good enough, but closes at 9 a.m. […] along with the coffee station. Couldn't the coffee be left out for patrons to enjoy later? Read more

This hotel was located in a great spot. But there were roudy kids slamming doors untill 6 am. Throwing the screan out the windows and hotel management did nothing about the complaints. Our room would not go above 69 degrees. The blankets were as thin as the sheets. Our shampoo and conditoner that came with the room were almost empty as well as the toilet […] paper. This room was overall bad Read more

found every thing good and relaxing.wish pillows were bigger.breakfast was good w/plenty of food.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Other then we had a hard time finding the hotel, it was very good. We were given a choice of which floor we wanted to stay on. One small issue about midnight.....neighbors were a little loud in the hallway. I assume they may have had one too many nightcaps. But otherwise the room was clean, it was quiet and we got the rest we wanted.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It offer continental breakfast, but with very slim selection.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Excellent value for the cost!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I thought that this was a very nice place for the price. I don't recall it having the greatest ratings so I didn't have very high expectations. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. I found the gal at the front desk to be very pleasant. I wish I could remember her name. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants an inexpensive, no-frills […] place to stay. Read more

Very convenient to attractions in Portland area. Clean room and comfortable beds. Nice pool area. Breakfast was good. It is a small area but wasn't busy she we were there.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel is located right on I95 making it so easy to go anywhere in Portland. The hotel was clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly. Makes a great place to stay after an all day Maine lobster feast.

The hotel was ok but the doors banging at all time of the night was very irratating

Genuine Expedia guest review

This hotel was perfect for our short weekend away. We were minutes from downtown Portland and 100 yards from the ramp for the major highway. Getting around was so easy. The hotel was very clean and well maintained.

Would have given a "5" but breakfast attendant was certainly not a graduate of any customer service class. We never saw her speak to anyone, and all guests requests were met with long sighs. We asked for more coffee at 40 minutes before breakfast was to end, and the only response was a long stare at the clock. When she returned with the coffee container, […] it was dumped on the table with a loud thump. Another guest remarked, "Service only upon protest". Read more

So, I guess I have a bias against HoJos...I really thought they were all outdated and in need of upgrade and/or demolition. This hotel really surprised me...probably because it HAS been upgraded and redone (I think in 2010??) It was very nice and clean. I have no complaints at all. Well, ok...I didn't like the coffee or the yogurt in the morning...but […] I had a delicious waffle, so that made up for it! Read more

The hotel is fine for the price. The carpet in the common areas is very old. Many small things need updating. Location is great

Genuine Expedia guest review

My husband and I stayed here on our little weekend getaway and were not very impressed. The room they gave us felt like a closet...the only thing you could see out the window was a building wall. The air conditioner was very loud and sounded like a broken truck, which made it a little hard to sleep. Breakfast was ok I guess. I will say the room was […] very clean, which is very important to us, and the staff was friendly. If I were to book a room in Portland again, I would probably stay somewhere else. Read more
