OK stopover point

Room was fine, beds were comfortable. Shower worked well. Good stopover point from a long drive. At first the internet wouldn't work, but the person at the front desk rebooted their router and it worked fine after that. Two problems with the room. It was a hot day and the a/c didn't cool the room much. In fact it started to make so much noise we turned it off. Also there was no screen, so we couldn't open a window when it cooled off. The deadbolt on the door stuck and we had to struggle to get it open. Could have been scary if there were a fire. We found a nice noodle place nearby the hotel. Excellent fresh spaghetti for bargain prices.

Not Like the Other HoJo's We Stayed In

The staff are nice and friendly. The location is okay. The room is clean but looks old and needs a little refurbishing or repainting for a nice clean smell.

A Great Disappointment

When we arrived the room was on the second floor, no elevator and not a special needs/diability room. The room was smaller than any room I have ever been in. They were still taping the walls in in the bathroom, not even primed or painted. No way could this be a room for the disabled. A wheelchair could barely fit through the door, let alone manueverin that room or its bathroom. The bathroom did not even have wall handles for a handicapped peron to raise themselves into or out of the bathtub.

The area was old but walking to a Denny's was not bad.

Terrible location

Hardly slept for fear my car would be broken into. Constant noise all night from binners hunting for bottles. Breakfast wasn't bad though.
