Absolutely awful
August 19, 2014

Dirty room, window smashed all over the floor and nothing to stop the stinky night breeze from floating in. Had to plug the window with a pillow. Insisted upon billing is despite the room being prepaid. We will go anywhere but here in the future.

It Wasn't That Bad
August 19, 2014

I stayed 10 nights and saw a little bit of everything in this hotel. Bearing in mind that it IS a budget express hotel I don't think it was too bad. I wouldn't let children run around unattended here as I saw a couple of suspicious "transactions" outside the building and the smell of smoke and weed was heavy on... more

The front desk customer service wasn't very nice. The breakfast area wasn't ready to accommodate customers in the morning. The hotel hallway was very stinky and some features in the room wasn't working and clean. The maintenance staff was very nice and they tried to help make our tip as comfortable as possible.

Avoid This Hotel
May 13, 2014

Run down, noisy. In addition to the overall street noise there was a party in the hotel that spilled out into the parking lot. When I went down at 10PM to advise of the noise I was met with a disbelieving and haughty front desk clerk who dismissed my complaint . . . despite the revelers running through the hotel... more

This hotel is like that hotel in your home town where the drug dealers and hookers live. The photos are very well taken and don't show the seedy underbelly of this hotel. There is a reason they have a no refund policy. The front desk staff were polite and nice and the only good thing about this hotel.... more

Howard Johnson in Brampton
September 16, 2013

Overall kinda meh. Not horrible, cut certainly not great either. I think the check in person really set the tone of the stay. Not rude, but not welcoming or polite, grating. Checkout person was much nicer and my stay may have been better if she was working the night before.

The property is well located and ideally priced, and offers services required (free parking, breakfast, free wifi, a small gym etc). Even the non-smoking rooms however, seemed a little smelly, as if someone had recently smoked in them without later cleaning. Also as a result of the lowish price some customers are of the less educated sort so can be... more

February 04, 2013

The hotel served it's purpose of giving us a place to stay for the night - no bells and whistles, just a clean bed and a solid roof over our head for the night. It is a bit out dated, but the price makes up for it.

Hotel is getting a little old
June 05, 2012

Couldn't beat the price ($89 on a Friday) and it served its purpose, but the hotel needs updating soon. The carpets are wearing out, the bathrooms are very small and there's only 2 ice machines. Parking is very limited unless you park out back behind the motel portion, and its a very seedy area back there.
