Not impressed

The front desk clerk was very rude. He put us in a room by the backdoor, which people walked in and out constantly. The door would just slam shut every 2 minutes. We asked to be moved to a different room, and were told that there were no rooms with king sized beds available. So we settled for 2 smaller beds. The service was not good, and we will never go back. Very disappointing.

One and Done

The hotel is in a fairly decent location, just several miles from AC. It was bought by Howard Johnson about 4 months ago (mid 2012), and they are haven't really changed anything over yet. Even the sign is still sitting there. One of the major problems I had is the place isn't clean at all, and smells pretty bad. Shower head was terrible, room was so/so, and you will NOT want to take advantage of their Breakfast. The waffle maker had all kinds burned stuff on it - was pretty sickening. When I said something, they blamed customers who sprayed too much PAM on it, and failed to acknowledged that it hadn't been cleaned in years. I literally looked like a BBQ that hadn't been cleaned in years - I'm sure the health department would love to have a look at it - turned my stomach so I checked out. As far as the hotel itself, I didn't feel all that safe, and to be honest, would not take my family there.

Just okay

The location of the hotel was perfect which was out of the heart of AC. The hotel itself was not anything to brag about, it was okay. The furniture in my room needed updating. The pool was not clean. It was Just okay to lay your head down at night.

A little off the strip

this is good if price on strip is too high, they hae shuttle services are available but not very hing frequency. Taxi costs 25$/one was into the strip...so do your calculation before you book.....ask for shuttle timings and then decide if it makes economical scene to book...if u can manage trip on shuttle and this hotel is cheaper than what is available on the strip then book it :)

New Eve

Would not stay here again it took about 45 minutes for someone to find my reservations. The guy that was helping didnt want to give me my triple AAA discount but I did recieve it. I asked for a king bed instead I recieved to queen beds. New Day trying to get ready to go home no hot water to shower with so no I would not stay here again. Chewing gum under the night table no bath towels. Had to walk around to the front key would not open the back door lock.
