I arrived for my very short weekend honeymoon. The hotel was great for the value. The only problem I had was the person at the front desk who wouldn't help me move a date that a person on the phone got wrong when taking my reservation. I said I'd pay the difference, but the associate told me there was nothing he could do and so I had to book and pay for a new reservation. Also another thing that sucks is that I thought every hotel had a honeymoon suit, but we didn't even get a king size bed that I requested, so my newly married husband and I had two beds. Other then that, the hotel is great for the money and the location is not bad either.

This was not my first time staying at the hotel. I made my reservations online with intentions on celebrating my daughter's birthday, and we had no problems once I arrived at the hotel. I found the website to be true to the word as far as the pictures, room layouts, services offered, etc., that were on the website. I travelled with my daughters and they were also pleased with the room, even though as I was booking the room on line, they showed some skeptism but everyone was pleased upon arrival. I found the front desk to be very courteous and the rooms clean. We intend to come back again during the 2007 season, preferably during the spring or summer which will allow us to enjoy the pool and the chance to do some sunbathing. We enjoyed out stay so much, that we plan to make Howard Johnson, Broadwalk out hotel. We were not fortunate to reserve a room when we returned to Atlantic City in June, 2006 which was an oversite on my part for not reserving earlier. I also intend to recommend the Howard Johnson, Broadwalk to my friends that frequent Atlantic City more than I. Being a single mother I would immensly enjoy any discounts that were offered.

What I liked about my hotel room was the high ceilings. I am tall, so high ceilings make a big difference. The bathroom had older fixtures that were
pink. Very retro looking. The bathroom was clean and maintained. My bed was
a king sized bed. It was very comfortable. My room was a nice, comfortable
size. There was a small table that had chairs to go with it. This table
was a good size to sit down and have a meal on. Two people could stay in this room comfortably. Some of the channels on the TV didn't come in as clear as other channels. The motel offered HBO. This is a big plus when staying at a motel. The carpeting in the room was a little dated, but it was clean and soft. The window opened a little to let in fresh air. The windows had locks on them. The drapes were thick and heavy. When they are closed, they blocked out the sun completely. The view from my room was of the pool. I enjoyed watching people
play in the pool from my window.
There was a pool, which was an outdoor pool. It was huge! There were many lounge chairs surrounding the pool. The water looked very clean. The pool was painted blue, and looked very inviting.
The lobby had a nice seating area with comfortable couches. The staff at the
front desk were friendly. They warmly welcomed me when I arrived at the motel.
The only complaint I have with this motel is the elevator is rather jerky when it stops on the different floors. This motel was located very close to the boardwalk. It is located between the Tropicana and Hilton Casinos.
