Pros (+) The room was a good size and very comfortable. The free breakfast had self cook waffles. I have not stayed in a Howard Johnson's for years because they were small and run down. This Howard John's changed my mind. I loved the free parking and no resort fee's. The TV had plenty of great channels also. I will try some more Howard Johnson's.
Cons (-) Nothing was wrong.

Pros (+) staff attempted to remedy internet issues. new tv remote supplies after second call to front desk after 1/2 hour wait.
Cons (-) could not connect internet after several attempts. only one person at front desk who stated he was overworked and not able to handle guest requests. no clean up of room after requests. motel located next to airport and impossible to listen to tv when jets overhead. disinterested manager regarding my complaints. overall not acceptable assistance. will not go to HG motel in future.

Pros (+) Free shuttle to SAN that picked up 5am. Room was clean and large. Easy to check in. My husband locked us out so we had to get another room key the desk guy did it no problems. Morning staff guy very nice. Bed was comfortable. No bed bugs we checked always do. No dust and toilet was clean. Checked all that. A /C worked great.
Cons (-) Older hotel more motel feel. Room smelled at first but turning on a /c helped that. The sidewalks littered with cigarette butts. The neighbors beside us up all night with music and hit the wall many times but we did not report it had to get up too early. Big gap under door.
