Carpets were stained in hallway and in the room. Bed Cover was stained (looked dirty). Bathroom sink was stained. Found used ... wrapper under the bed. I only stayed because I was on a business trip and proximity to where I needed to be. The furniture looked like it was extremely old and the chairs were stained too. Bad experience for me at Howard […] Johnson. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
It was horrible, another guest checked into my room, under my name. Had to wait fir 30 mins for the front desk agent to give me a room. I booked a PH room, the room looked like an average room. never staying at this hotel. I wouldn't recommend it either.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"AVOID TO STAY IN THIS HOTEL!"
Even though the price was reasonable, I thought that this hotel for being a Howard Johnson brand it will have at least a clean room. When I checked in, I noticed that the hotel has been poorly mantained. The elevators, one was broken, the public rugs on each floor totally old, rusted and dirty ( they dont even clean them) . You can smell unconfortable […] smells . The rooms!.. the matrresses pretty old , everything you can see that they dont spend one cent on updating, changing or at least keep the rooms clean!. I dont know how they can have their name of Howard Johnson on the property. The bathroom tiles were with mold . I was very nervous to take out my shoes and to get an infection. So, if you have any other options, please pay a bit more and stay on another hotel Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great lobby. Nothing else."
We were tired. The night was late. The lobby was large and elegant, so we anticipated a wonderful stay, only to find stained carpeting and bed ruffles, old dark overused furniture, and a bed that was so soft and squishy even Goldilocks would have run away. We had traveled 14 days before staying in this hotel so we knew hotel prices and values. This […] was the highest price we had paid so far. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Disappointing...Stay somewhere else."
People stuck in the elevator with a huge wait in the lobby for the one that was working. I asked the front desk where the stairs were and they directed me outside...10 floors later the door was locked. I eventually made it to my room but this was typical of my stay here. Mediocre rooms which felt dirty and too many issues left me feeling like this was […] a bad idea. I will look to stay elsewhere moving forward. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

I will never going back to this hotel, the cleanness does not exist, when we arrive to the room, I checked below the bed and I found trash, I even found a bottle of water, this tells me that they do not clean the rooms. I have to kids and I do not want them to sleep in those beds, I had to use my own blanket. AlthoughI we use our own blanket one of […] my kids woke up with a rash, maybe because of bedbugs.

Really terrible experience. Staff very friendly but hotel is extremely dirty. The room we stayed in was the dirtiest I have ever stayed at. There were so many hairs in the tub, mat, floor. A soiled face towel left behind by the shower area, toilet bowl had not been clean at first sight. Capet very soiled, chair by the window old and very dirty. The […] room and I general the hotel doesn't smell fresh at all but smell like dirt. Very poor maintenance and upkeep of the property. Definitely your housekeeping department needs to improve. Never again! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
Carpet throughtout the hotel was old, stained and looked filthy, even in the rooms. Old style, box TV in the room. No towles in the room when I checked in. Asked the front desk to provide some and they informed me that housekeeping would come up shortly. They never did and I used a towel I had in my bag. Very noisy next to I-75 and SR 826 intersection. […] Listed as a an airport hotel but I would advise staying at some of the hotels adjacent to the airport. They are cleaner,quieter and about the same cost usually.

"The dirtiest hotel in which I stayed"
A terrible smell in the room. Because of the kids, I moved the furniture and there was an excessive dust and trash under the beds. The toilet was disgustingly dirty on the outside. I had the sensation that they simple don't clean the carpet.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Terrible but for a reason"
Although this review is really bad, the conditions under which I stayed there were unusual. I got caught in Miami when my flight to Turks and Caicos was cancelled and many people were looking to book hotels near the airport. Most of the hotel rooms were already full when I tried to book one so I ended up getting about the only one that was available. […] I was thankful to get it and I did have a very good night's sleep after all. There was a man who came in to check in right after me and was told that the hotel was full. So, again, I was happy to have this room. I left at 3:00 the next morning to catch my flight so I wasn't there long. As I said, I was thankful for that room. I think the hotel was under renovation. I guess I just got one of the rooms that hadn't been renovated. If someone else had gotten one of the renovated rooms, they would have a different outlook. I'm sure that the staff were stressed out, too, because of everyone trying to book under difficult circumstances so my rating will probably not be the same for most people.

"A hopeless place"
Due to flight changes we had an unanticipated stay overnight in Miami and we booked this place while in the airport. Firstly, the hotel wasn't nearly as close to the airport as the Expedia app indicated. The lobby and pool were nice enough but the rooms are in need of a make over and a good cleaning. We booked the penthouse room (such a joke) and as […] I walked out of the elevator all I could think of was The Shining. I was waiting for blood to gush out of the walls to cover that god awful mauve peachy 1970s decor. There was trash sitting in the hallway. The bathroom looked like it was a hospital bathroom. There was this bench in the tub for the elderly or immobile to sit on.. I guess. No way I would put my behind on that bench. The lighting was horrible the room just made me depressed. I felt like I was in a horror movie, like the ghosts of dead hookers past would reveal themselves in that sad mirror pointing at an odd direction. The noise from the highway was loud as well. The only pluses were the helpfulness of the staff and the free shuttle to the airport. The driver was pleasant and nice. I couldn't wait to get out of there. Neither of us slept well at all.

"Horrible Hotel"
This hotel was horrible. My family and I booked this hotel due to the close proximity to the mall. The room had a distinct musty smell. The air condition and iron did not work. There was no shower pressure and i had to warn everyone not to wash their hair. The service was rather poor in the restaurant as we had to tell the staff several times that we […] needed a refill on the coffee. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

Horrible experience and the staff was not willing to work with me.

"Never be there, it will be your nightmare in Miami"
It is a worest hotel I have ever stayed in Miami. First the room is not clean eought, the carpet is not clean with a very strange smell, not to mentioned about the bedsheet, it is dusty and the bed is totally not comfortable. Moreover, the AC noisy is really a nightmare, I could not sleep in the night since it is just like a generator next to you! I […] have complain and want to make a room change, but useless you will start to find out they could do nothing about that. Second, the quailty of the service is really bad, around morning 10:00-11:00 the house keeping will continuely bothering you about the room cleaning. Even they will break into your room without notice, which it is really a surprise; and they clean the room for nothing, especially do not use their coffee machine, it has been not washed for years I believe, since I have tried so many times with clean water still coming out for a cup showing showing some coffee insides, it is never happen in any other the hotel. Finally, the stuff of the hotel is not friendly at all, they seems really do not want to work in the hotel, and is treating everyone not friendly, not to mentioned about the vendoring machine only in 5 th floor??? the other floor not available to buy a drink. I have to say I will never back to this hotel again. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Horrible letdown after our fabulous cruise."
Loud, and very unclean. The staff was friendly but that was the only positive thing I can say. People kept trying to get into our room--unsettling. Hot as well.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Not good!"
This hotel is NOT by the Miami airport, so don't be fooled by the name. The room was disgusting and very dated and the restaurant staff was not friendly. Don't stay here, especially if you want to be near the airport.Genuine Expedia guest review
"No comment"
I would not like to waste any more time in explaining why this hotel isn't good for what you pay. I just strongly suggest you go elsewhere and probably save money and/or geta better service.Genuine Expedia guest review
"BAD CHOICE!"
The hotel is very dirtuy, the carpet smells bad. Bathroom was dirty.Genuine Expedia guest review
Don't do it. Pay an extra $25 and go elsewhere. There service is the worst. We had 5 people to a room and only 3 towels. There shuttle is a joke. Called when we arrived (as instructed) at airport (7:10pm) was told would be there in 1/2hr. Needless to say after 4 calls to the hotel and 2hrs of waiting by the curb they finally came. Called for towels […] and xtra pillow and it took over an hour to get it. Best of all we ran out of toilet paper late in the evening and called down to desk for more and 9hrs later, still no toilet paper. I wont tell you at this point what I really would of liked to do without any toilet paper. But best of all, the roaches and ants. Called the desk to tell them i wanted another room because of the roaches and ants they send up housekeeping with a bottle of Raid. What the hell is wrong with these people and to top it off no one speaks english. They all speak Spanish. So i suggest your learn spanish before heading there. I do have to give credit where credit is due, the restaraunt in the hotel is awesome and they are very friendly and inexpensive. oh and last but not least there elevators have not been inspected since 2008, must I say amymore. So before you book this hotel i suggest you go elswhere. :( Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

Picked this one because it had a 3.5 star rating. Should be more like 1.5 stars. Not enough outlets. Couldn't find my package I shipped there. Wife got stuck in elevator.

"Do Not Trust this Hotel!"
The only good thing about this hotel is that I only had to stay there for about 4 hours. First of all, our room was not ready and after waiting we were sent up through the dirty, decaying hallways to our "suite". The poorest excuse of a "suite" consisted of a dirty, outdated, and foul-smelling room with two tiny beds that folded out of the wall. The […] bed did not even have comforters and did not have the 3 beds I was promised when I booked the hotel. After arguing with the staff, the only highlight was the supervisor who transferred us to two other rooms for free. THE PICTURES ARE COMPLETELY DECEIVING. THE ROOMS ARE NOT, I REPEAT ARE NOT, IN THAT CONDITION. The beds are small and gross and totally uncomfortable...the rooms look nothing like the updated, comfy rooms with views that the websites boast. Everything in the hotel was old and I could not wait to get out of there. If we had been staying longer, I would have demanded my money back and gone somewhere else. I am contacting Howard-Johnson to call their attention to this false advertisement and the poor condition of this hotel. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Urban camping"
The hotel was not well maintained. The carpet was dirty and stained. The ventalation grate was handing by one screw with the filter hanging out the bottom. If I had not made the mistake of paying in advance, I would have canceled my reservation and found other accomodations. I have stayed in much nicer for much less.

"ABSOLUTELY AWFUL HOTEL"
This hotel howard Johnson hotel, was absolutely awful. The room smelled musky, old, not fresh and clean. The bed sheets/spread also smelled awful like it was used before, and some nasty maid decided to put it on another bed. The pillows were small, almost tiny, very uncomfortable. I wont recommend this hotel for my poodle dog to stay at. The bath tub […] was filty, obviously not cleaned properly, the lamp shades u touched them and the dust flew off. There was also a chewing gum that perhaps the last guests left there, it was stuck on the inside of the lamp shade. Completely disgusting, hideous, nasty, distasteful, cant find enough adjectives to describe how terribly awful it was. I feel i can go on and on about how awful this hotel stay was but i fear it just might be a waste of time. That hotel should be closed down immediately. It does not deserve to be rated a 3, instead it should be rated a -1. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"This is not an Airport Hotel"
This hotel is a disaster. The WiFi does not work, they keep asking the guest to restart the computer, but it does not solves the problem. The safe deposit box in the room does not work because the battery is low, but they excuse it by saying that all the buinding is being upgraded. The hotel is NOT at the Airport, is far away from the airport, a US$ […] 35 plus taxi ride. The shuttle to the airport is not a continue service but only runs on a certain schedule. The "airport" word is to trick passengers in thinking that it is actually near the airport. DO NOT recommend. Go somewhere else Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Howard Johnson Plaza Hotel Miami Airport"
Selected the hotel because I needed an overnight stay between flights and they offered airport transfer. Airport transfer ends early and if it takes time to get the luggage, you miss the last transfer. There were 5 of us that needed transfer and had to scramble and pay for the airport shuttle (Individually as we discovered our situation in the van). […] Not good service for a hotel that caters to those considering a place near the airport. Hotel room also had a very musty smell. I normally don't give a poor review, but after a long day of traveling, I was very disappointed at this hotel that identifies with the local airport. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
""This was a awful Hotel""
The person from expedia was so wrong about this hotel. They had one person on the front desk. I had to wait 30 minutes to get my turn. The room was dirty and it had a smell.

"No where near the airport"
First we had to travel far. This hotel is no where near the airport. Their name includes the words Miami airport. Also walked in the room and felt like I was in a low quality weekly rental. There was a dinning room table in there. I thought for one moment I was in the wrong room. The area was not good I did not feel very safe.

"Rated 3.5 stars, should have been 1 star!"
We got our nights at this hotel from a deal offered by Expedia, where we told it how many stars, then agreed to accept whatever hotel they chose. Well, having used Expedia for years, I felt confident in their choosing a hotel that matched the 3.5 stars they advertised. This one did not. It was in a very dangerous neighborhood, had poor service, mediocre […] food, and a musty, dusty, smelly room. I had reserved it for 3 nights, was unable to rebook in Miami that same night due to Spring break and a music festival, but moved to a better hotel the next two nights and called my pre-paid rooms a loss!
