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.

Not good looking but close to downtown
The hotel is not a good looking, but it's very convenient if you want to be close to downtown. It was good for us as we only stayed for 1 night and didn't spent time at the hotel. It depends on your budget and preferences.

DODGED A DISASTER
My family (husband & two children) and I were traveling to Washington from Michigan. I called the hotel, as a courtesy, about 9:00pm to inform them that we were still on the road and that we weren't going to check-in until after midnight. The Desk Clerk informed me that they had given our room away (double beds)and that they only had one room left (king bed). When I booked the room I was told that my room would be guaranteed until midnight. Thank God I called when I did!! Sleeping with my kids wasn't pleasant, with all the kicking, twisting and turning that they do. But, at least we didn't have to sleep in the car!! After checking in, I tried calling the front desk for a wake up call, but, our phone didn't work. Also, our toilet leaked.

Horrible Service
My wife and I stayed at the hotel for 3 days. They did not clean the room or replace the towels when we asked them (or when indicated by the door sign). When we asked the front staff, they said it wasnt their fault and 'its the Day Shift's fault'. Very unprofessional. Do not stay at this hotel unless you want bad service.

It was in a bad and kind of unsafe area of dc. It is a 15 minute walk away from the nearest metro, and you have to walk along the freeway on a dirat road. The internet connection was bad in my room. But you get what you pay for right?

Very clean
Overall, our stay was quite comfy. It was very clean. It wasn't as close to the metro as we thought, about 3/4mi and it was a very hot walk. Our first night, we had to call the manager to get rid of some people pounding on our door, apparently they had the wrong room. Other than that, we were very pleased with the comfort and cleanliness. The staff was very pleasant. We took taxis back in the eves and it averaged about $15 for 2 of us. They 4 of ea towels in the room, which is great and hard to come by sometimes.

R.L. Stein's Goosebumps
We were on a field study trip (5th - 10th graders) all the way from Inglewood, CA. It was our intent to stay here from Monday afternoon until our early check out on Saturday morning. As we pulled into the parking lot many of the chaperones noticed a "woman" who was obviously a "pleasure specialist" if you will. A car pulls in, she hops in and they pull off. A truck pulls in a few moments later and drops off a different woman. The lead chaperone decides we won't be spending more than one night here; we all agree. We get the keys to our rooms. One of our chaperones opens her door to see the belongings of the current occupant still in the room. She has to be issued another room. I take my girls to our room. It just feels like an icky place. I go into the bathroom to relieve myself (after a quick prayer), and go to wash my hands only to find that there are no toiletries. No soap, shampoo, conditioner, shower cap, or any of the usuals that await you in a freshly stocked hotel room. The room smells heavily of smoke. The solution? Someone comes to the room and sprays some sort of aerosol. Doesn't help. Thankfully the lead chaperone was able to find a hotel with seven rooms available the next day. We couldn't get out of here fast enough. Special note: the website specified that they were within 2 miles of the National Mall. False. It was about 4-5 miles.

No restaurants to eat in that area. Breakfast only served until 9am. But near enough to downtown to take taxi cheap. Room was very convenient. Overall: happy for choosing this motel for that price. Oh ya... Train tracks right behind!
