Room had mold on bedding, lamp and ceiling. Room had an overall damp feeling. Clothes and towels never dried. Condensation constantly on the table. Front desk did offer to change but the 2nd room had a bad smell upon entering, so I just stayed. But should've changed because I was never able to really get "comfortable" (stayed 3 nights). Following morning My son had bug bites, not sure if it was bed bugs, it could've very well just been a mosquito. Either way, not fun trying to keep a 5 year old from scratching. I ended up having a few bites the next day, but again could've just been a mosquito in the room. Fridge and microwave was a plus. Pool looked refreshing, but didn't get a chance to experience. Staff was nice and everyone was always working.

It was the first time I decided to have breakfast there, and honestly, I wouldn't go back. They only have carbs and coffee available, which are not healthy at all.

Room for improvement

Facility is dated. Bathroom was dark cracks on the ceiling and mismatched paint to cover repairs. Double queen room only had 2 pillows per bed and the pillows were horrible. Only two towels in a 4 person room. I was able to get more at the desk. HoJo’s used to be a staple of places to stay but this one does not live up to its legacy. Oh snacks, laundry items, missing toiletries are cash only.

I was very impressed with this hotel. First and foremost the room was very clean and everything was in proper working order. I love the mid-century decor, a real throwback to HoJo’s origins. Pool was clean, though maybe s little too warm for my taste. A pool should be refreshing, not like bath water. But with a small pool in the glaring Florida sun, the water temperature will naturally rise in the summer. I enjoyed the stay so much that I went back the following week. Oh, and the price was extremely reasonable in my opinion. I’ve stayed in a few pretty awful hotels over the years that cost considerably more than what I paid per night at this Howard Johnson’s.
