Average. We left in the morning and didn't return till evening. Basically this hotel was used a means to shower and sleep for the night.

	Date of Stay: April, 2009
The room had a fridge and a microwaveplus cable. Had to carry belongings up a flight of narrow stairs. Once we found the hotel, we were in our room right away. The room was upstairs, and we had to carry items up a narrow flight of stairs. The staff was friendly, helpful, and efficient.

Date of Stay: August, 2008

Even though I had reserved and paid for the room online the front desk manager wanted to swipe my card and charge me again. We had reserved a room with two double beds and that was all that fit in the room. The air conditioning was not turned on and took 2-3 hours to cool down the room. The bathroom was the smallest bathroom I had ever seen in any hotel. The bathroom door did not latch. The paint job was terrible. The shower nozzle came off. I had reserved the room on the basis of the Howard Johnson name. It was a big disappointment to find a HJ in such a bad way.

The Howard Johnson Inn - Elyria was not clean and had paint on the chairs, floor and toilet. The staff was nice but I had little interaction with them. The location was just blocks from the other hotels and shopping mall. I guess you get what you pay for.

	Date of Stay: August, 2008
Nothing. It was filthy, the material condition was poor, Old and worn out. I could not give this hotel a star rating because it does not deserve one. And would not recommend this hotel to anyone. I will never stay at another Howard Johnson hotel again.

They remodeled this one and it is fantastic. You can;t beat the rate and the staff here was so helpful and friendly. They really exceeded my expectations

	Date of Stay: September, 2008
Very good value, for cost. Very close to turnpike with some traffic noise. Very helpful staff.

Date of Stay: July, 2007

Nothing positive could be said. It was dirty, stinky, and the hotel staff was in denial. This hotel was the most disgusting I have ever seen. The entire building was in a state of disrepair. The door barely opened to the room because the carpet was peeling up. The room stank like a lovely mixture of urine and smoke (although it was supposed to be non-smoking there was an ashtray by the bed). There were layers upon layers of peeling paint on the walls and window (which also barely opened to release the stink). The bathroom was horrendous. The tiles on the floor were cracked and shifted under my feet. The tub was chipped and the shower head had some mysterious gunk on it. The faucet stuck an inch out of the wall on bare pipe. There were cobwebs on the sagging ceilings and in the corners. They just offered me a new room. We left as soon as we had enough sleep (on top of the covers, mind you) to safely drive again.

This is NOT a Hotel it is a MOTEL. Security doors on the lobby require guests to be buzzed in. Bullet-proof glass with a speaker hole separates guests from the hotel staff. Had requested a room with a rollaway (3 kids). Manager informed me that a roll away would not even fit in the rooms here!! I had made reservations with HJ 800 number and had called that afternoon to confirm late arrival, roll away availability etc. Every time was assured everything was in order. Manager suggested I pay him an additional * for another room with an outdoor entrance - for the children to stay in!! I did not even see the room, but the computer required rating on cleanliness and the beds- the lobby was okay, except for the smell. I was requried to pay for the room since I had made a reservation but we DID NOT STAY at this location. Subsequent calls to HJ resulted in the location manager calling me and offering me more nights at his MOTEL at a discount! I don't think so. HJ clearly does not understand "customer service" or "truth in advertising". Baymont Hotels in this area are GREAT - try one of them instead!!!!!

I always thought that the Howard Johnson were low on the totem pole, but this one was very nice and as good as the other motels that we had used.

Date of Stay: September, 2006

It had hot and cold running water. It was very noisy, dirty, with worn-out skimpy towels and frayed curtains. The hotel is a very worn-out facility located immediately next to two major intersections which create much noise form the 18 wheeler trucks. It had frayed and sagging window curtains, torn shower curtains, and worn out, skimpy towels. I gave a 24 hour notice to depart and was told they could not let me out of my 4 day stay. I left the next day anyway. I was charged for the full 4 days anyway.

Date of Stay: July, 2006

I was afraid to keep my reservation due to comments listed, but wanted low weekly rate. The motel is advertised incorrectly. No pool, no restaurant/lounge (even though lobby smells like curry), no alarm clock. I did have in room coffee, micro/fridge, and free wireless internet. Housekeeping took a few 'shortcuts' in my room, but cleanliness was acceptable. Color cable TV with full channel lineup. And weekly rate is 7 nights for price of 5. Would stay again.

	Date of Stay: May, 2008
The Howard Johnson was nothing more than a place to sleep and shower as long as you're not paranoid about dirty and crude. Room was dirty, sink was a mess, bed sheets hadn't been changed, no coffee for the coffee maker. Turnpike was right behind hotel and passing cars and trucks are loud in the room.

	Date of Stay: May, 2006
Dirty, difficult to find, rated as 3 star dissapointment. Dirty noisy location difficult to find.
