Disappointed!

I was very upset with the Niagara Falls Howard Johnson hotel. The staff was courteous and helpful; however, the establishment itself was atrocious and in much need of repair. The walls were peeling, the ceiling was falling apart and worse the toilet leaked and the water pressure was none existent. To add insult to injury, when the shower or bath was run the area around the toilet became soiled. I asked the staff for another room but declined that one as well because it seemed to be in as bad a state as the one I had already checked into and moved in upon my arrival. Its location was convenient but due to its poor condition, I would not recommend this hotel to anyone!

We check in at 3 o'clock p.M. And rushed out to see a family member and came back at 11:00 pm. So tired that we went to bed right away but unfortunately we were not able to sleep because there are bed bugs plus the beddings are dirty and sandy (you can tell that someone slept on it already and the hoesekeeping just fix it a bit). We reported it to the front desk and to the manager we didn't even heard an apology for that. We are always in niagara falls area but won't check in to this hotel again. We're so disappointed that when we go to other places we won't even try to book or check in with another howard johnson hotel because it seems we developed a howard johnson phobia after that disgusting experience. I hope the top management of howard johnson will see to it that the housekeeping and customer service will be the top priorities of running a business like this.

Nice large room and great location. Able to walk to nearby attractions & casino (about 3 blocks). Front desk very friendly and housekeeping staff quite accomodating. Morning continental breakfast was small, but staff very nice. There was several dogs on site during our stay. Not a problem for us, but might be for some. Did not realize until after the reservation was made, that there was an extra fee of $15.00 a night for the 2nd person, which I thought was unusual. Would definitely stay again .......
Had A Wonderful Stay

The rooms have just recently been remodeled. and they are very nice. the maids service is very good. anything you need they are good to get it for you. the only thing i found wrong with the hotel was that the pool has steps into it and it goes to 4 feet on the steps and then it goes to 5 feet and then reclines down. the only thing is i am a short person so i could not go into the 5 ft. area cause that is where the swimming starts, but if you are a good swimmer that is ok, but i am ok swimmer but not the best to trust myself to go deeper water. wished the pool had more of a 4 ft section. the people that work there are very nice and the accomadations are nice. thereis newly airconditioners and heat all in one so you can adjust it yourself. it was a nice stay. i had a hard bed but i also have back problems. but the person who went with me did not have a problem and well niagara falls on the american side is not that run down and there was plenty of places to eat. so that wasnt a problem. i have to say there was remodeling going on in the rooms that were vacant, but they are very quiet as to being very noisy. they were great there. they are remodeling and it is looking very nice there. no problems with our stay was worth the money. we had a beautiful view and that was nice too. they even had a refrigerator for us coffee pot and microwave. it was nice. and continental breakfast was good too.hope this helps.ihadreservations about booking this but i am glad i did.
