Great experience...
The staff at Howard Johnson's was friendly and always helpful, ditto for the customer service at Orvitz. The hotel was wonderfully located right in the heart of all the action. Loved Olde Mistic Village right across the street. The world famous Mystic Aquarium and Mystic seaport were both less than a mile away and downtown Mystic was just another mile or so away. The hotel was clean and well kept (loved the Jacuzzi) and all for a price you just can't beat.
