The property manager was extremely kind and helpful. Breakfast is just grab and go, so we did end up going out for breakfast each day. It was quiet and the room was clean, so overall a nice place to stay when you’re on a budget.
Cute lil property close to highways, restaurants and Naval Bases. Rooms were clean and beds very comfortable.

The location and the fact that parking comes free is the best part of this place. We showed up for our 3pm check in only to be delayed til after 5pm. Not ideal for a family vacation. The room was overall okay, the one thing we knew was the room was cleaned daily and they were very helpful and nice when it came to making sure we had plenty of towels and supplies.
Staff is great especially Martha and all front desk sysff

Howard Johnson was a pretty good stay for us. The staff was very friendly and the room was clean. The only thing I would say is that it’s not in the best area of town.
The hotel and area outside was clean and the staff were nice. The room was clean, and received clean towels when asked, they didn't count them. I would stay there again.
It’s fine for an overnight stay. Room was clean and bed was comfy. It’s right off the freeway so area not pretty but was practical for what we needed which was just somewhere to stay for one night only on a budget.
