Howard Johnson Inn Jamaica JFK Airport  

Rooms were very clean and comfortable.

The continental breakfast and the friendliness of the staff were below average.

Hi-speed internet is the best feature I can site for this hotel. The complimentary breakfast is OK; self-serve waffle maker is very good. The shuttle service is prompt and the front desk staff are extremely friendly and helpful.

The room carpet is really filthy. It's old and no amount of shampooing or vacuum cleaning will remove the greasy surface (ewww!). I pity the housekeeping since its condition is really hopeless. Better for the management to just take off the carpets and replace them with vinyl tiles for sanitation.

Convenient for JFK airport and they have a free shuttle from 5am

Free wifi didn't stretch as far as our room. There was a musty damp smell in our room and a mouldy patch on the wall.

dear sir,I have one problem with your system. The amount for hotel booking USD 85 was deducted twice from my credit card on 01 march and 02 march 2011. Please check the issue and refund USD 85 to my credit card so that future relation with your hotel continue.

Proximity to the airport and convience of the shuttle service. Room was basic but adequate.

Not clear that you needed to call for pick up of the shuttle. Only coffee in the hotel room no tea or juice soft drinks for children. Our flight left very early so we did not get the complimentary breakfast and no alternative was offered, although roomservice was avaialable at an extra cost. Driver of the shuttle demanded a tip, quite rude. Tried to charge for fold up bed which we didn't use.

I was disappointed. The check in desk was not friendly. The rooms were small. The bathroom looked clean until I looked up and saw years of dirt in the light fiture. The bedding cover also appeared to have been stained not sure with what. The parking was very bad also. Just was not a very welcoming place.

Just not what I would expect from a Howard Johnson hotel.

The bed linens had an odor. The sink was clogged.

price and location

old, smelly

Good price and good location. Close to the JFK airport.

Shuttle bus is inconvenienced. Breakfast start 6: 30am. It's little bit late for morning flying people.

Good price compared to other hotels in the city

Dirty. Small room. Noisy. When I first arrived, there was no remote for the tv. The smoke detector had been disconnected and removed. The safe could not be locked. There was nowhere to hang clothes. I brought these things to the attention of management and all were fixed.

Closeness to the airport. Affordable and comfortable. Timeliness of services. Friendly and courteous front desk persons who were very patient in giving directions (repeatedly in my case).

Breakfast was too dry with few options.

Very good location near jfk .

They have charged me $20 for early check out as a penalty which never metined anything about it when we origionally booked . They would quote you a price and then charge you something else (more than agreed) . Rooms are very noisy near main road .

The room was clean, bed is comfortable.

The room is kind of small, only one chair in the room and the closet space is small.
