• Convenient Interstate access.
• Loud toilet and air conditioner.

“This hotel was easy to find, right off the interstate, with two attached restaurants, and a fitness room with basic equipment. It was near gas stations, and relatively close to other stores. We found it clean and quiet, and it suited our purposes fine as a base for short day trips in Southern Maine.”

“The hotel is ok. Some staff really helpful and friendly some other not. I went to my room but I had to come back to leave something for somebody at the reception and the same person was doing the registration of somebody else and gave them 10% discount coupons for the restaurant for people staying at the hotel. That action confirmed the feeling the I got when I was doing my registration. The van driver too was rude. The rest of the staff was really helpful and friendly.”

“For anyone wanting to visit Portland, it is a great location. It's a short distance to the Sea Dogs baseball park, the Maine Mall and to downtown Portland. There are also plenty restaurants and shopping locations.”

• Attractive, very comfortable beds, clean, well-appointed and stocked; everything worked (seemed new).
• In-room coffee was nasty.

“This Howard Johnson was very attractively appointed and landscaped. Rooms were fairly spacious, very clean and well-stocked with appliances and travel accessories. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The in-room coffee left much to be desired, but otherwise we were very pleased with our stay. The staff was very courteous, friendly and helpful. ”

• The hotel is much better than most HoJo's. The lobby is very comfortable and the rooms are large.
• The hair left in the bathroom on the tub. Yuk.

“Our overall experience was great especially for our three year old. There is a nice pool and Jacuzzi, the lobby is large with a fireplace, friendly is connected and rooms are much larger than most hotel rooms.”
