“What you get for what you pay”

Howard Johnson Inn and Suites Absecon

3 of 5 stars
Troy, Michigan

1/1 found this review helpful

This hotel is exactly what you get for little less dollars. The location is a bit away from casinos. Rooms are average. We took 3 rooms and out of them 2 rooms are ok but the third room has cockroach and other bugs. Exchanged it for another room which also turned out to be not that clean. The people who stayed in that room previously would have put cigarette buds into the air conditioned. The owners are very nice to acknowledge that though. The free breakfast is as usual - muffins, cereal, juice, coffee and bagel.

“I'd Stay at the HoJo Absecon Again!”

Howard Johnson Inn and Suites Absecon

4 of 5 stars
Long Island, NY

0/1 found this review helpful

We stayed at the HoJo Absecon on a Friday night. The price was a mere $62.00. (of course it was the beginning of the "off" season) We found the hotel clean and inviting. They just recently renovated the entire place. Our room was clean and looked new. The carpet was brand new, as was the bathroom. The only complaint I have is that the beds were NOT replaced. The one in the room we stayed in was old and a bit to soft and saggy for my taste. The breakfast was good & fresh.
I would definatly go back.

“Great location, great price, very clean”

Howard Johnson Inn and Suites Absecon

Sep 7, 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

The rooms was a great price. I got 2 double beds non-smoking. It was just over a hundred dollars for one night when all the casion hotels wanted upwards of $280 for a friday night. The rooms were nice~looked recently remodeled. Very spacious, nice bathroom, small frige, ironing board, hairdryer, coffepot, etc. The drive to the casinos and boardwalk was about 12 minutes and was a straight stretch. There were two things I did not like about the hotel...I was placed in a room directly across from where the Indian owners lived so I smelled spices and food all day and all night and had to hear them speaking Indian and opening and slamming their door all night...also parking sucked. There were 4 spots out front 5 on the side and the rest inthe back. At night they lock the back entrance and you have to walk all the way around. other than that I have no complaints. Hotel was clean with a very nice lobby and vending machines everywhere. It was about .2 of a mile away from an all night gas /large convenience store...you could walk there if you want.

I would recommend this place to anyone, very nice.

“Love the hojoac”

Howard Johnson Inn and Suites Absecon

Jul 16, 2007
0/2 found this review helpful

One of the beautiful hotels in the atlantic city area. The staff is very friendly and keep the hotel very clean. The location was ideal because it was only 10 minutes drive to all the casinos and clubs. The rooms were amazing and romantic. I stayed with my girl friend and took a Jaccuzi suite which made it an unforgettable night.

“Good value”

Howard Johnson Inn and Suites Absecon

Nov 21, 2006
4/4 found this review helpful

The Howard Johnson's Hotel is relatively new. I had a jacuzzi suite, king bed, for $ 66.50 for the night. The room and bathroom were clean, the jacuzzi was nice but the jets were not very strong. There was a coffee maker and small refrigerator in the room. This was a very good value for the price paid. They have a "free" continental breakfast. This is no big deal and don't expect much. They had just average bagels, with butter only, no cream cheese or jelly. The orange juice was good. They had mini-pastries. The coffee was terrible...very, very weak, so much so it looked like lightly colored water. When I mentioned this to the front desk they made a fresh pot of coffee, but again it was very weak. I guess the machine was not working properly. I would stay here again, but get my breakfast somewhere else.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — Very clean.
    • Disliked — Continental breakfast not great.
    • Tips/Secrets: — Book on-line. It is muych cheaper than calling the hotel directly.
