The hotel is what you would expect for the price. The guy at the Front desk was nice. However, housekeeping opened my door without knocking by while I wasn’t dressed. The room also had a foul moldy smell.

The hotel stay was good enough to get a nights rest. This hotel is great for times when you are being budget friendly and it doesn’t matter where you stay at. There are some remodeling that needs to be done but other than it was ok

Typical Road Side Hotw
Not bad, but not great. Staff wouldn't look if we could check in early. Would only advise that check in was at three, it became apparent that half the hotel was empty so not sure why we couldn't. The did hold our bags for us but which was good.

Good location for the price.
Although a bit dated the room was clean and comfortable. The staff were polite and helpful. Continental breakfast available each day. Free parking. Mile walk to the metro and bus connections. Ok in nice weather otherwise $10.00 taxi trip.

The staff was cordial enough. The Continental Breakfast was okay at best. The room was fine with minor but ignorable wear and tear. Free HBO was nice though.

Everything OK except the location
The location of the hotel is close to a very busy road (New York Ave). It is very difficult to cross the road or to take the car out of the hotel. Also this area of Washington DC is bad. The attractions of DC are minutes away and a Metro station is near by.

Not the best option.
I stayed there with my family for just a night. Staff was really helpful and the breakfast is OK. Free parking is great, they have cameras, so didn't have any problems leaving my car there. The room is really old and it smell odd. We found a hair in one of the towels, disgusting. If is just for a night, I think you'll be fine, the hotel is cheap, it compensates.

Not worth it for the amount of price we paid !
This facility is close to downtown area but not worth it for the amount we paid for room. Later on we found that there are many good hotels with good service are available with lower price compare to Howard Johnson Inn Washington DC. There was no enough TV channels for kids or adults and some channels are not even clear. Air condition we so loud which bothers us (kids) during our stay. They provide free wi-fi but speeds are very low. I prefer to pay little extra with peace.
