Reviews for Howard Johnson Missoula

Review 1:The motel didn't have the reservation I made through booking.com, but did everything they could and got me a room. They said that they had had other problems with booking.com.

Review 2:Staff was very helpful getting everything fixed that booking didn't do.

Review 3:no hot water for bathing, room smelled with odor of smoke, plumbing in bathtub drain poor & very old as needed help to show how to operate

Review 4:understanding staff to my wife's handicapped needs as to 1st floor room

Review 5:Poor entrance to parkng lot. Drapes in room need serious replacement. Large stain on carpet. Shower head plugged, needs replacing.

Review 6:Good lighting in room.

Review 7:No housekeeping service until complained to desk; safety issue with ungrounded power strip providing outlets near nightstand; shower head needed repair.

Review 8:One of the least expensive motel rooms in Missoula.

Review 9:For starters the bathroom door was put on backward. There where holes in the walls. The chair was full of stains. The guy working the front desk complained the whole time about all the work he had to catch up on.

Review 10:I was within 3 blocks of a strip club.

Review 11:Facilities are really old and run down. This is in no way a 2 star hotel and I'm ashamed that Howard Johnson has given them their approval.

Review 12:Cleaning staff were nice and efficient

Review 13:In the first room, the sheets had not even been changed! Dirty! Second room had no cold water in sink, bathroom door would not latch, shower was disgusting, and dirt in all the corners! A flop house like this is so not worth what they charge.

Review 14:The property is very dated,and in need of a good sprucing up. Overall, I think it was not a good representation of a Howard Johnson property.

Review 15:It was an okay place to stay the night.

Review 16:We left the day of check in and got our money back. The bathroom was filthy, the pool was dirty, the hairdryer started smoking as soon as it was turned on, upon further inspection the room had dust and other signs of poor cleaning, we had to check in an hour later due to the room not being ready to begin with. After all that, we weren't going to stay there. Period.

Review 17:The front desk was a bit slow and unorganized but the lady was nice and refunded our money without hassle.

Review 18:This place is old. The carpet was dirty, The fluorescent lights in thebathroom were just bare light bulbs screwed in. The paint was dirty. Thedrapes had holes. The wifi just didn't work and there was tepidwater that never got hot. So pretty cold shower.

Review 19:Pretty quiet and It was the only available room in town. Beds were cleanand pretty comfy.

Review 20:the shower looked nice but the showerhead was difficult to aim properly without causing water the spray out all over the floor.

Review 21:the heated floor tiles in the bathroom were a nice surprise. the room was clean and comfortable.

Review 22:I found a clump of hair in the shower, there was what looked like dried boogers on the wall next to the toilet. The room was unvaccuumed, and the "hot" tube was barely warm.

Review 23:It was quiet.

Review 24:We had no room service, got back late on our second night there had been no room service nothing was cleaned. We were tired and too late to complain.The whole place needs an update and our room needed vacuumed when we first got there.

Review 25:Location

Review 26:The only problem we had was that the bed was to soft for my wife, and she had problems getting comfortable on it. She didn't sleep all that well.

Review 27:It was nice and quiet, near where we needed to go (I was in Missoula for the State USBC Open Bowling Tournament).

Review 28:Mattress was nasty (blood on it) Breakfast ends too early, 9:30 Far from the freeway Room not clean

Review 29:Not bad value, pretty cheap Good parking near the rooms

Review 30:We did not like the bed, there was no convenient outlet for the computer, the shower sprayed water everywhere and there was only cold air blowing when we wanted heat in the morning. This motel needs a bunch of improvements.

Review 31:We liked the price, location and the breakfast.

Review 32:the door had an Inch a half gap on the top.there were spiders cobwebs in the corner extremely dirty rug carpet no plugins for the refrigerator and microwave TV didn't work

Review 33:the staff was very friendly.

Review 34:I woke up with a back ache after sleeping on the mattress and the bathroom had standing water in it when we got there

Review 35:the staff was very friendly and helpful

Review 36:I had a room on bottom floor, people were noisily pulling in late that evening and ended up staying right above my room and I could've sworn I seen more rooms available than just the one right above me.

Review 37:The price was great. The room was well maintained. Breakfast was nice.

Review 38:Beds were hard. Tub was disgusting. Other guest were allowed to be loud outside. The cops were even called one night. Towels not replaced. Dirty iron. Some staff were unpleasant at check in( not the one who checked us in). Would never stay here again!

Review 39:Nothing

Review 40:Carpet stains made it that I couldn't go barefoot. The carpet edges were not vacuumed. Door frame to bathroom was rotting. I didnt want to get close enough to back of bathroom door to see if it was splatters or chips on the door. The sink had rust spots. Turned down the bed to find a live bug. Pictures to prove it. The corporate office would be ashamed to have their name on this motel.

Review 41:I entered the room to find that someone had obviously been using the room as a nap room. On one bed the pillows were moved so one could lay back and watch tv. The remote was on the bed next to the pillows . Then in the sink area a washcloth had been used and tossed aside next to the plastic wrapper from a plastic cup. The cup and a few used Kleenex were in the trash. I called and spoke with the front desk to make sure the room was not double booked and told her what I found. I was offered another room but I am not able to use stairs so I kept the room but would not use the pillows off one bed. The price was higher than I would have liked for a room that was a bit run down. I don't mind paying for what I am comfortable in and this was not it. Also I thought there was going to be a fridge and microwave but I was disappointed there too.

Review 42:Irene at the front counter was nice.

Review 43:Motel located 6 miles from freeway. On arrival I was given a key to a room that was occupied or not cleaned. Went back to desk and got another room. It was also occupied. Got key to third room and it was also not cleaned. Went back to desk and got a refund and left.

Review 44:Room had bad odor. Soiled carpet. Empty Kleenex dispenser. Trash on bathroom floor. Used washcloth in the shower. Blanket on the bed had rips and tears.

Review 45:We found the morning clerk to be rather unfriendly. It may be our mistake that my partner woke up late for breakfast and I switched the waffle machine back on to make him waffles but she certainly did not hesitate to cover her displeasure. However, she did make us the extra coffee when it ran out. So she was nice.

Review 46:The night clerk Mr. Patel was very helpful. Breakfast was pretty good. The bed was very comfortable.

Review 47:Very run down. There were wear holes in the drapery that I barely daredtouch. The bathroom fixture over the "empty place where the mirrorwould be" were bare bulbs. The patch job for the bathroom door waspoorly done with paint missing for a good 3 square inches on doorcasing. Found Pizza cheese packet (mostly empty) between bedstand a bed- on floor that had not been caught by housekeeping from a previous"visitor". I will never stay here again.

Review 83:The rooms curtains were very badly hung. Really no excuse. Just needed hooks to have it hung nicely

Review 95:No smoke detector, plug in receptacle was so loose that the plug wouldn't stay in (fire hazard), the drapes were barely hanging (all the hooks were undone), I had asked for, and paid an extra $5 for a king bed...we had a double! I won't make the mistake of staying there again :(

Review 96:The air conditioner worked well

Review 97:Could have been a bit cleaner. They should update the rooms because its a good location.

Review 98:The front staff was nice, it was quiet during the night and no disturbances, I was unable to use my credit card and they still let me pay cash and stay there.

Review 99:few small details in remodel weren't finished fully, power strip behind the bed was of dubious function - looked burned out.

Review 100:staff was friendly and attentive, facilities were clean and recently remodeled. heater/ac unit worked very well and kept the room comfortable. quiet property.

Review 101:We found hair and hair clippers in the bathroom, meaning they probably didn't clean that area before we came in. So we had to check the linings before going to bed to make sure they actually changed the sheets, which let us a little bit uncomfortable to sleep in there. Other than that everything was ok.

Review 102:The staff was friendly

Review 103:My visit was on a very busy weekend, The staff were accommodating and helpful. IA lot of renovations were recently completed and the rooms were very clean. A great location easy access and parking. I would stay here again,

Review 104:The room was not ready to rent when we got there. The room was not clean! The bed did not have mattress pad on it. The light over the mirror was very dim. The heating/ac was not properly installed ( it could be moved around and you could see outside through the cracks in the sides and top). There were cob-webs on the windows.

Review 105:The room was very run down, stained carpet, toilet seat didn't fit, the porcelin in the tub was gone, so it looked nasty. The door didn't latch very well. There was an old toilet outside on the sidewalk. Another lady complained tht her non-smoking room stunk like smoke. Vry run down hotel, not a 6 out of 10 as ws on your website. Very disappointed. I don't think it was a great price, $107.00 with tax, Motel 6 is much nicer and cheaper in Missoula! We have stayed in about 5 different hotel/motels there in the last year - this was definitely the worst!

Review 106:the shower had good pressure.

Review 107:Plug in were not easy to access for phone charger. The one by the bathroom was not tight enough to keep the charger plugged in.

Review 108:Staff was real friendly and helpful.

Review 109:The location is a bit far from downtown but if you have a car or a bike it's ok. The wifi worked but was slow.

Review 110:Good bang for your buck. They allow pets for an extra 10 dollars. The staff were excellent, breakfast was ok.

Review 111:The staff never smiles, they act like you shouldn't even be there instead of showing happiness that you pick their dirty, nasty motel

Review 112:I like the location and the price.

Review 113:The room was extremely cold when arrived had to heat up cold water was turned off under sink so only hot water was running.

Review 114:Staff very friendly, room was nice and clean. Had a great breakfast in am, excellent folks to work with. Will stay again.

Review 115:The continental breakfast. The office area was cluttered and a staff member was filling up buckets around the food. There were no lids for the coffee so I couldn't take it in the car.

Review 116:the room was very clean.

Review 117:Drain in sink was clogged when we arrived. It was cleared the next daybut sink was not cleaned. One of the rooms was not made up on our arrival--we were moved to another room. One room had no soap or shampoo, norefrig or microwave---the other did. The second day one of the rooms wasnot made up although towels etc. were delivered.

Review 118:Front desk staff was fine.

Review 119:I had a ground floor outside non-smoking room, smelled like smoke, manager came right over & sprayed an air freshener, I agreed with the manager the smell came from people smoking or cars running and the air being drawn through the AC vent since it was set on outside air

Review 120:Prompt service when addressing a problem

Review 121:The place was under construction.... I was having a nice shower, when the water turned suddenly scalding hot . I was pink and sore for two days afterwards on my lower chest and upper belly ...

Review 122:The only negative was the lights shining on the stairs also lite up the room. Perhaps a different design away from the room or put black curtains in the rooms to block out the light. The air conditioner worked great but was very loud each time it turned on and off.

Review 123:Excellent service, room clean & nice environment. Price was excellent for room value. Staff was very nice and helpful. I would use this hotel again.

Review 124:There were a lot of young adults milling around at night. There wasn't a second lock on the door. We saw staff going to rooms with vacuum in hand about 10 pm & also with towels. Didn't all the rooms get cleaned?

Review 125:Reasonable price & was available.

Review 126:The room was adequately clean, but not top-notch clean. For example,there was a sugar packet wrapper in the bathroom, some grout residue onthe bathroom sink counter, and a dead insect on the carpet near theentry. The room had been cleaned, however, and the sheets were fresh. Itwas good enough for our needs.

Review 127:The staff was friendly and attentive. When we booked online, wedidn't see that there was a pool on the property. When we arrived,we were pleasantly surprised to see one.

Review 128:1) Buffet breakfast 2) Dilapidated fitness center 3) Cops knocking on other hotel guests' room ... I really wonder about the safety of the location!

Review 129:1) Price 2) Courteous staff
