Howard Johnson by Wyndham Middletown Newport Area

8/10 Good
"We stayed at the Howard Johnson in Middletown for a week with our two daughters, and my husband joined us for one night. It was a mixed experience. We checked in late and found a grease stain on the headboard, coffee stains on the desk, fingerprints on the door, a sticky spot on the carpet, and leftover food in the refrigerator. The shower would only drain if we removed the top of the drain. I told the housekeeping manager the next day, but they didn’t seem very concerned. On a cold day, I turned on the heat and the smoke alarms went off, so the heating system needs attention. The overnight front desk employee was very helpful, and the support staff brought us things we needed, including a crib, quickly. They helped keep us comfortable throughout the week. Parking was plentiful, with convenient spots for bringing luggage to the room, and having an Applebee’s connected to the building was handy. The outdoor area was nice. We used the small pool once, but the water looked murky, so we didn’t go back. The room didn’t smell bad, but it wasn’t clean enough for a stay costing about $400 a night. There were some helpful people and conveniences, but overall, I probably wouldn’t stay here again."

10/10 Excellent
"Overall, an amazing experience. Hotel and service was impeccable. Room was really terrific. The only issue was that I snagged my dress jacket on a nail that was sticking out on one of their dinning room chairs. The restaurant manager came over and indicated that the ‘hotel’s tailor’ would take care of it. Not sure that the hotel even had a tailor and it was Labor Day weekend as well. No one from the hotel ever followed up."
