Howard Johnson Express Inn - New Brunswick

party hotle loud music started about 230 am couldnt sleep from that point on..

Good location and convient, but the room wasnt very comfortable. Bed was saggy. The door looked like it had been kicked in at least a few times and had to be slammed hard to even shut enough to lock it. Maybe this room was featured in an episode of "Cops"

This was the worse hotel I have ever stay in.The room was not in the great condition. The bed spring were coming out of the bed. The bed was really hard. The room had a bad smell it it. The continental breakfast was the worse I ever had. The management hotel staff did not take of this hotel. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. If I was Hotel.com […] I would take this hotel from your website. Leer más

Excellent price. Just not up to par. Room stank of deodorant or whatever. Clean, orderly and probably ok for summer since I saw a nice big pool in the courtyard.

The electric outlets were modified to handle TV, refrig, microwave and lamp, nothing worked had to move TV and lamp but then four way adapter would not let refridgerator and microwave work at same time, called office to ask for another adaptor never did get one we were staying four days so we had to got to wal-mart to get extension cord and adaptor […] for charging phones and computer, free wi-fy would not work till we took computers to office then low and behold they would connect then?????

It's been a long time since this place was in pristine condition and it shows. It is obvious that this place is slipping into the motel category and there are "long stay" guests on the property. I was in a room that had 2 doors, interior and exterior. One of the chain locks was busted. We mused over how a chain lock gets busted. There was garbage all […] over the facility when we checked in but mostly of the broken bottle type. When we returned in the evening, it was 85% gone. The neighborhood is a demilitarized zone and the property looks like it as well. For all the bad I have said so far, the room itself was quite spacious and clean and so were the facilities (Bathroom), We were sleeping there as a waypoint from a concert to a friends house and for that purpose it served us well. I would recommend this place to those who are brave in spirit and have a little sense of adventure. Leer más

Quiet. Clean enough to have me only mildly concerned about bedbugs. Had to change rooms due to the fact that only one lamp in the room could be plugged in, since the wall outlets were in pretty sad shape. The late-night dude was very helpful, though, so I'm giving them a 3. And in spite of the fact that they're literally pressed against Rt 1 in northern […] NJ, it was remarkably quiet. Huge motel, too, so I was not aware of those in adjoining rooms, even tho the parking lot was about half-full. For a four-hour power nap between late-night travel and an early morning speaking gig, it did what it needed to do: bed, shower, wake-up call. Leer más

I have already contacts Howard Johnson corprate about this hotel. I have never, ever in my life, stayed at a hotel this disgusting, nor been treated so badly in a hotel. I will never pre-pay for a hotel online again, or stay at a Howard Johnson. Hotel was disgusting and nasty. Litterally falling apart. People smoking drugs in the walk ways, couldn't […] understand the people at the front desk, nor could they understand me. Tried charging me for exsisting damage in room, and also for 2 rooms after I demanded a room change. Landscaping completely un-kept therefore making it difficult to even get to your room. Hotel is EXTREMELY difficult to get in and out of due to the route 1 and roue 18 interchange being right at the edge of their perking lot. Wrong address listed on hojo.com and hotels.com GPS (or any map website) will not get you there. If you're lucky enough to spot it on Route 1 when driving by, KEEP GOING. Do not stay here. Leer más

one of the poorest customer service, and they don't even clean the room, when i said nobody cleaned my room, then the answer i got, "I will complain to my manager", that's it...they don't want to give any service to their guest...

I actually stayed 3 days and my room was never cleaned even when I asked the front desk for the service. I never received any more toliet tissue or towels or a piece of soap or coffee, nothing except 2 mini bottles of shampoo that were watered down. The worst stay although the front desk was trying hard to be nice, they came off as very cocky and arrogant. […] Also, the donuts were stale and the muffins were hard. The worst! Leer más

By far, the most disgusting Motel I have ever stayed in. Dirty, filthy, and run down, with electrical problems on top. DISGUSTING! I considering leaving more than once. The only good thing I can say is that I didn't notice anything crawl past. Maybe it was too gross for the vermin.

Smelled terribly!

I stayed here several years ago when in the area for a funeral and this was a decent low cost motel, not much in amenities but comfortable and clean. In a hurry to find a place this time and decided it would be fine to stay here again, but now it was filthy, beds were very uncomfortable, neighbors in room above noisy, and the neighborhood has gotten […] desolate. Never again. Leer más

I stayed here because it was the only place I could find amid the power outage. The towels have frayed ends, the sheets look like they are at least a decade old and the carpet felt damp. The air outside the room on teh night i checked in smelt of weed. Overall, a lousy room.

Good last minute stay.

Bed dirty sheets too Towels with hairs Smells terrible People so rude Phone doesn't work Wifi with low signal

The online advertisment illustrated a home away from home like atomsphere. False presentation, i'll explain why. After checking in and proceeding to my room, I immeditately noticed an arugement between to adults, the immediate area looked "shady". I had to indur loudness from the room above mine. The people walking around the campus looked somewhat […] suspicious. In my opinion this hotel's presentation was of a "truck stop and rest" type of lodiging establishment. After asking a few of the City's residents in regards to this lodging establishment, they (residents) conveyed to me that this hotel is known for its' criminal history and "shady" atmosphere. I'll quote a certain statement made by one resident, " I'm surprise you car was still there in the morning" or "you always see the cops, ambulance or fire dept there"....Post those two statements I was taken back and wanted to leave and "eat" the remainder balance fee but i stuck it out. I don't not recommend this hotel, I'm sure the franchise is respectful and customer friendly but this particular hotel was quite disappointing. Leer más

The WORST!!!! Never go there.

For the region where it is located and the star rating, it's very good! Very clean, modern, confortable.

The staff were very nice and friendly. I thoroughly appreciated that. However, the condition of my room was horrible. I have never been to NJ before, and staying in that hotel made me wonder if health codes were different in that state. I could barely breathe because the room smelled like mildew. They were kind enough to provide me another room, and […] the second room was much better. However it did not change the fact that all my clothes smelled, and my hair smelled after leaving the hotel. It is too bad, because the guys at the front desk were kind. Leer más

The main problem I experienced was that the ice and vending machine was located at the check out counter and was not told that there were no ice machines on our floor. I had to wait for front desk to get the ice that was locked up in his office:(

On Friday 9/23/11 and Saturday 9/24/11 I stayed at the Howard Johnson Express Inn at 26 US Hwy 1 in New Brunswick NJ. My husband and 9 year old daughter stayed as well. We were completely disgusted with our accommodations. The entry to the room had 9 spiders around the doorway. There was a terrible stench outside around the rooms that smelled of old […] beer and urine. Outside in the parking lot were empty drug baggies all over the place. 2 of the lamps in the room did not work because the knobs were broken off. I sat in the chair and sunk all the in. Under one of the beds was a used condom and a Corona beer bottle. We contacted the front desk to report the remote control did not work. It took over an hour to get a new remote that also did not work an additional hour of waiting for a 3rd remote to be brought to us until finally my husband went and got it himself. This remote did not work either. Our first night consisted of loud music and dozens of people in the parking lot. We contacted the front desk several times but they did nothing. By 3:58am I had enough and told the night manager that if he did not put an end to the party downstairs I was calling the police. Finally we were able to sleep for a couple hours. We had a non refundable room so if we left we would get no refund and we did not have the money to pay for a different hotel room. The next night we watched prostitutes bring clients in and out of their rooms (this was our entertainment). Although on this night we didn’t have to listen to loud music all night, we did have to listen to the beds hitting the walls as the 2 prostitutes had sex all night. This was more like a crack house than a motel. I booked this room through Hotel.com and feel that they should remove it from their listings. This was the worst place I have ever stayed and we all came home and went right to the showers feeling like we needed to decontaminate after our stay. Leer más

Ok for an over night stay but nothing to brag about..

Hotel was very old. Tv did not work, outlet did not work. The pictures are very upgraded of what the hotel really looks like!

Have experienced & stayed at HoJos in the past - this was HORRIBLE. Front desk was unmanned for over 30 minutes...couldn't check in & was late for the event i was going to. Room was dirty. Just icky all around. Sorry. I want to say something good, but it only served as a place to sleep. Need flip flops for the shower too! We got what we paid for!

AWFUL EXPERIENCE. The walls were moldy and the paint in many places were falling apart. One or two towels were wet. There were hairs in the tub. The milk was bad in the breakfast and they weren't prepared to serve. AND TO COMPLETE, SOMEONE OPEN THE DOOR OF MY ROOM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, 2am APPROX!!!! AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL.

I was looking for a middle of the line motel hoping for a decent, clean stay without any bells and whistles. The pictures were deceiving for we didn't expect when we got there, the parking lot and the surrounding lot looked shady. There were a couple of people panhandlers outside asking me for money to buy smokes. When we entered our room, we found […] a pair of socks next to the bed, the toilet seat was broken and the pot didn't look like it was sanitized. We felt itchy all night long. Not worth it! Leer más

After I came back with 2 days of stay in this hotel, I got my eyes sore due to some insect bite. The bed is not clean and the overall features of this hotel is OK. The breakfast was pathetic.

At night, after going out to dinner, it was interesting to see "interesting" people walk thru the parking lot, evidently passing thru due to the location of the HoJo Inn...

This place was awful for any type of stay. The rooms were DIRTY and the plumbing was terrible. The entire place (including out by the pool) smelled of marijuana. There were many parties of all kinds and the area was not very enjoyable. The only good thing about this place was the convenience to the turnpike and the low price. I would not recommend this […] place for any type of stay. Leer más

This was the worst hotel I ever stayed in.

The worst hotel I ever stay in my life. Very shabby
