Howard Johnson Express Inn Lake Charles Motel - Page 1

After reading about all the negative reviews about this hotel (mostly 1 or 2 yrs old), I was hesitating to go there, but since I needed a place to stay near where I was going, I decided to take my chance and reserved a room for two in this hotel.

The hotel has been renovated (for the appearance, it seems that it was recently). The shower was clean, with good lighting, and in perfect condition. The room and the bed were up to my standards (usually i just need a good TV, a comfortable clean bed, and an overall nice appearance). The room had a TV and a fridge (something you don't find in cheap hotels), The check in/out was fast and courteous. There is a pool (I did not use it). If you are looking for a 5 stars hotel, don't expect this place to be, what can you possibly get for this price? Well, I think for the money I paid, it is a pretty good deal. I will recommend it and will stay there if I have another opportunity.

I plan to go back there soon. I liked the price, the pool, and comfort, and how friendly they were.
