Not great. Will not stay again
Asked for handicapped room, handicapped parking , pet friendly . Room was down a flight of stairs, had to park at the end of the building and walk to the other end of the building to the room. Parking lot was very icy. Rooms are not pet friendly. Only had ice cold water, no hot water. Answer from the desk was ,” Thanks for letting us know. “
The room was clean and comfortable. But getting into it was very difficult.

I would stay here again - I haven't stayed in a "Ho Jo's" since the '70s so it was a bit of a throwback for me - very comfortable bed, everything very clean - I enjoyed the 70s "vintage" decor - it's what I grew up with!

The room was as advertised. Clean but basic. Decent for the price which was reasonable. However the continental breakfast was underwhelming essentially just hot or cold cereal, an apple, juice and coffee. I wasn’t expecting much but usually most places have prepackaged muffins or yogurt, granola bars, tea bags, or one of those waffle makers. It was a big long counter with next to nothing on it. Kind of sad honestly to see.
