Room Condition: Rooms are generally clean, though some mention it's a bit old. Like 'the room was clean and the place is a little old but is very clean'

The hot tub was covered and padlocked closed Internet didn’t work most of the time Parking lot was being resurfaced so we have to find alternate parking, but we were lucky to find a spot on the premises. The bed was a little too firm for me It was a little loud due to street traffic. The room was clean and the balcony and ocean view was really nice! The breakfast selection was good! The staff was nice and apologetic about the inconvenience

My sister and I have stayed there two other times, she more than that. I had requested an Accessible room and we did not get it. There was only 1 in the hotel and it does not face the bay. Our room should have had a grab/safety bar to hold onto in the bathtub. The bathtub was slippery as there was no non-slip mat in the tub. We put a towel/bath mat inside the tub so I wouldn't slip. Breakfast could have provided some more protein like peanut butter. Otherwise, it was good.

My daughter suffers from severe eczema and allergies and she breaks out and gets hot and itchy when exposed to hot conditions, being that the hotel room was bolstering hot upon arrival and the amana heat pump in the room did not work made the day and night very uncomfortable through out that day especially at peak temperatures of 94 degrees during the day. I was expecting a far more comfortable stay at the hotel but unfortunately was not able to comfortably relax and rest.

Falsely advertised. This place is not clean, there were little hairs in the bed & on the towels. Absolutely disgusting. Never staying in a Howard Johnson brand again after this.
