Howard Johnson Inn Jamaica JFK Airport NY

This Hotel was not comfortable because it felt very run down. The area in which it was located was infested with thugs. The security gaurd told me not to walk across the street to the Minute Mart, rather to tell him what I wanted and he would go over and get it for me. The sounds of sirens was predominant throughout the our stay. After the first night we actually changed Hotels. That is how uncomfortable that nieghborhood was.

Locked myself in the room and waited for the sun to come up

i never has bad experience about hotel like this befor....

this hotel was not only overpriced but the room was way too small. There was not enough parking. The furniture in the room was dirty. Most of the lamps in the room had blown out light bulbs so the lighting in the room was horrible. The bathroom was almost as big as the room but was in horrible condition. It was obvious that the bathtub had been removed and converted to a stand in shower. There were watermarks on the ceiling from obvious leaking. I would never visit this hotel again and certainly would not recommend it to anyone.

We didn't choose this hotel it was our only option since our flight was cancelled leaving JFK. Hotel staff was typical NY rude and unconcerned. Room was small, floor was dirty, outdated, and very noisy being right by the exit and garbage dumpster. The temperature controls kept us up adjusting it all night. Area is not the best and dont count on leaving to find food other than BK. Only positive was that the bed was comfortable. Avoid like the plague if possible.

Awful.

Worse ever.

Worst experience ever... Room was freezing. Heat blows under curtain so does not properly heat room unless curtains are placed on window sill. Water was cold, got warm jumped in shower got immediately cold. No refrigerator. I did tip the room housekeeper.

We took in the sites around New York. I also did a little shopping and visited family. If you enjoy taking cold showers every night this would be the place for you. Staff did not seem to be concern that the water was not hot, and did not try to fix the problem.

Located in a very shady town, the HOJO Jamaica should not be visited unless you want to be stabbed. Our beds were dirty upon arrival, there was constant noise throughout the night, one of the guests had an issue with a stabbing, and on two seperate occasions, riding the bus to the hotel,we overheard two different groups talking about either stabbing or shooting someone. Do not go to this hotel!
