Howard Johnson Express Inn Parsippany Motel

The day I checked in they were testing the fire alarms, so the whole check-in process was a series of loud screaming noises. I get in the room, which was supposed to be non-smoking, but it reeked of cigarettes. The AC unit made a loud banging noises, and when I lay down on the bed i noticed an ashtray on the overnight stand with a cigarette butt in it. I was too tired to go through the whole change rooms routine. Hopefully they will get better, with all that money they're spending on renovating, they will need to.

Warning, Bad security and dirty room. I was displeased to see hair on bathroom floor and dirty blankets & bedspreads upon checking into my room. The next morning I left the room temporary leaving a camera and accessories in my overnight bag. Four hours later I returned to my room to refresh and pick up my camera. At that time I found that someone had gone through my belongings and stolen my camera as well as the charger and spare battery. Upon reporting the theft to management I was told that I must be mistaken, as this was not possible. I was totally insulted and made to feel like a liar instead of a victim. I WAS NOT MISTAKEN. THERE ARE CROOKS WITH ACCESS TO THE ROOMS!!!

The place was in disrepair and not maintained. There was mold and mildew on the bathroom ceiling and the bent pipes.

There was considerable water damage and had mold in the bathroom and bedroom areas. It was not repaired or cleaned in a timely manner at all.
