In Feb 2002 while on a Disneyland trip we decided to visit San Diego for an evening. Since we were staying at the Howard Johnson Inn at Disneyland (a great hotel by the way and one we would definately recommend) we thought we would make a reservation for the HoJo in San Diego. Can't go wrong right? Wrong.
BIG MISTAKE. Man were we ever shocked when we stepped into our room. We were expecting a nice, clean, room similar to the HoJo we just came from in LA, it was the complete opposite - it was dirty, smelly, dingy, etc.
Who would have thought that a hotel chain like HoJo would have two very different classes of hotel. Other than returning to the HoJo near Disneyland I don't think we will be checking into another HoJo anywhere else. It may be just the SD location, but as the saying goes, once bitten, twice shy.
