Howard Johnson by Wyndham Blackwood Near Philadelphia

Hotel

Ya'll, I'm in love with this bathroom. Wish I could take the whole thing home with me! The place is decently clean, has a microwave and a refrigerator, and a balcony! Comfortable beds, plenty of pillows, and good service. Only minor complaint was that when we first the arrived, there was hair all over the bathroom counter and I had to use a towel to clean it all off. I found out once I got here that it is pet friendly and decently priced to bring pets as well! Okayish breakfast that included waffles, sausage, cereal, toast, and yogurt.

What a hidden Secret. This place is incredible. Rooms have a little stylish retro thing going on and it works great. HUGE rooms. Nice free breakfast spread. Beautiful pool which is a destination on its own. People are friendly that work here. Bathroom ia much bigger than ours.

Decent place to stay. The pool is always filled with kids. Rooms are pretty clean. Breakfast sucks… only bagels, cereal, and oatmeal. The waffle machine doesn’t work. Staff isn’t too helpful. Fair priced for the service. No complaints.

Arriving, the front desk and Supervisor were very modest. When we reached the room, it smelled bad. There was old food left in the frigerator. The wood from the draws were broken. The floor from the shower would dent in while you'd stand on it. The attendant who was in charge of Breakfast was extremely rude. She went ahead and rudely told me to pick-up after myself while I was on my way to get napkins to wipe the table. She also muttered things out of her mouth after my son helped himself to danish cakes. I don't recommend this Hotel.

The rooms were very clean. I stayed in RM 304 which is the updated room. The bathroom was nice with a very large hot tub esque bathtub and a shower. The king sized bed was extremely comfortable and the balcony was a nice touch. For the price it was more than enough. I will definitely stay again.

Wonderfully Peaceful, Clean and Friendly THANK YOU STAFF OF THE HOWARD JOHNSON WHO MADE OUR TRIP TO PHILADELPHIA AREA MUCH BETTER! After a DISASTER of a stay at the Ramada in Levittown which was so bad we left after only one night — refused more towels (room had 2 in a 5 person capacity room AND an OD in the morning… plus VERY rude staff who laughed at us when they refused more towels) The folks at the Howard Johnson here made our stay very nice. Super friendly, yummy breakfast. What a difference between this location and the Ramada — both owned by Wyndham. I compliment the very friendly ladies at the front desk for their attention to detail and warm welcome. thank you for taking our post ramada stress away!

I give this hotel no stars. Owner was rude when I called to discuss my sons reservation. After driving for 5 hours my 18yr old son finds out thru his other friends the owner would not let them check in because they weren’t 21. So when I called he told me that’s the rules and if they want to stay they need to put a $100 deposit down. I called corporate and they told me that he’s wrong and it clearly states you have to be 18yrs or older. And no deposit is required! So my son and some of his team mates had to find another hotel at the last minute.

Decent rooms, decent prices. Like many hotel a it has some riff raff from time to time but I stay here often. Many rooms have been remodeled. The beds are good and the pillows usually are too. They have directv which can have spotty service at times but HBO is in the rooms for movies. It's really about a 3.5 star but Google omit allows full stars and it's closer to 4 than 3.

Its a very clean and friendly environment I would recommend family and friends. Owners and staff make sure you have all your needs. And what else is important that the breakfast is good and coffee taste good too.

A great place with large jacuzzi's and outdoor pool for the summer. Close to Philly and Camden waterfront. Newly renovated rooms!

Their newly renovated room 304 had a giant tub in it with some lovely overhead lighting. The king size bed was very comfortable and the TV had at least 50 channels. There was a safe, a table and chairs, a refrigerator, and a microwave. Also a small little outdoor porch which would be nice in better weather. The breakfast is a little more than Continental but not the Giant buffets. It included waffles and cereal and sausage and fruit and yogurt etc. The staff was very nice, and when I needed to get new batteries for my safe at 10 at night, the night Clerk accommodated me quickly.

Very clean, with good service. The second night we were there my key card wouldnt work when we got back. We went to the office, and they had it fixed in a few seconds. They also were very pleasant about providing extra towels on request. The breakfast was also enjoyable; besides the usual breakfast foods you expect, you could also make your own waffle. It was winter, so I couldnt comment on their pool. Would definitely stay here again.

I love the quietness of this inn despite being on a major road. The staff are very friendly and nice. I'll like to visit again with my family…

Customer service was very terrible and the cleanliness needs to be improved by 89%. Housekeeping employees were VERY LAZY. I called 4 times for housekeeping and they took so long to come to my room and when they came, the service was horrifying. One of the worst hotels I've ever paid for. Internet was on and off each room had a problem. The shower made a puddle and the water hardly went down. Choose somewhere better. Honestly the worst hotel experience ever. Cleanliness need to be HIGHLY improved as well as the customer service. I paid for a week and they charged me an extra 300 dollars. One of the housekeepers (Indian) was very rude after I asked for a sheet changed as if she was frustrated and as if it was not her job then tried to lie and say we never asked for housekeeping.

I was with my family in this hotel on Friday 12/29/17 it is a nice place the rooms and the bathroom very big the people who work there very friendly but the only thing that I do not like is that the bathroom was not clean as it should be I think that they should be more careful with cleaning or changing the way they clean it.

They renovated but the workers are rude… They come up with any excuse to keep your $50 deposite… hopefully things change soon I told them I will call corporate and they then tried to give me my money back because they knew they were wrong… I caught the worker and a construction worker doing inappropriate things and when me and my partner left for like 2 hrs we came back and both pur doors were wide open… new paint cant fix an old place! Do better howard johnson.

The room was nice. Beds very comfortable. The shower was a bit small but the bathtub makes up for it.

We came from out of state for a concert and needed a cheap place to stay for 2 nights. The room was MUCH better than expected and the tub was as big as our outdoor hot tub. Staff was nice. My only complaints are there are no vending machines on site, except for a soda machine and the maid started knocking on our door at 11 am even though check out is at noon. It made us feel rushed. Also they started cutting grass at 8am on a Saturday, so we woke up to that. Rooms were clean, mattresses were nice, balcony on every room and the curtains actually do black out the sun for people who like to sleep in. They offer breakfast 7-10am. Breakfast was more than just cereal, fruit and donuts. They had hot items such as sausage, fresh waffles etc. All in all definitely worth staying at for the price.

I came here for the excellent price expecting modest accommodations. What I received was a complete shock. The room was beautiful and completely clean. The mattress was in perfect condition under the sheets. For the lowest price hotel room in the area the accommodation level was unbelievable. The bathroom was larger than my bathroom at home and it contained a beautiful hot tub that worked perfectly. The balcony access opened onto the inner courtyard pool and the furnishings were comfortable. As a frequent traveler who has stayed at many Marriott and Wyndham and best Western and partner locations, I would comfortably say that this is probably the nicest hotel room I've stayed in even without consideration for the extremely good price I was able to book at through Priceline. The hotel staff were polite and greeted everyone as they came into the lobby with the sort of hospitality one expects from a 4 star. The breakfast buffet is complementary and consists of fresh, if standard, morning food, coffee, and waffle irons I will be on the lookout for Howard Johnson hotels as a preference in the future.

Very friendly staff. Don't let exterior fool you the rooms were very nice on the inside! Pool area well maintained, all amenities available and functioning (something I don't see at a lot of inexpensive hotels). Would definitely stay again!

The place is convenient for travels but it is host to an audience of drug users and hookers. We got raided by police there one night. Some of the staff workers aren't thorough in cleaning also.

My husband and I decided to have a night away from the kids but didn't want to go to far so we picked the Howard Johnson in Blackwood. The room was on the small side but it was clean. If we were staying for a few nights the pool and the exercise area looked decent. But we weren't staying but overnight. The front desk clerk was very nice and helpful.

Got me and my pet into a room at the last minute after an ice storm knocked out our power. Front desk is friendly and helpful. Room was clean and very comfortable. Only downfall was I was all the way in the back of the property and remote control didn't work and I had to walk all the way to the office in said ice storm!

My stay here was great until I met Charles he was very rude and seem as though he was cracky I spent 600$ here for a week and only because the ladies made me feel comfortable I will never come back to this hotel or remmend this hotel to any because of Charles very bad attitude and the way he treats people I will be reporting him to any higher authority because he made it very un comfortable stay.

The rooms were Ok but a lil dated they could use some modern upgrades. The spa in the room was nice. There are a lot of cops in the parking lot that pull over anyone coming in and out. I got pulled over 3 times during the course of a weekend. Its borderline harassment.

Do not stay here! They have bedbugs! I would give zero stars if I could. Bedbugs are unacceptable and disgusting! Someone could stay here and unknowingly bring them back to their house! Gross.

Slept here two nights. On night two there were drunk people screaming, yelling, playing music all night long above and around us on a Saturday night. I slept peacefully with ear plugs. Also our room leaked water from the room above, right above our toilet. I used a towel to goto the bathroom. Free breakfast in the morning brought us a new experience. The floor vibrating from a church below that building. The drums and music were still loud I could see several guests disturbed. Other than that our room was huge, bed comfortable and it was in a moderately safe neighborhood. Go here for an adventure, not a typical hotel stay.

I was overly impressed with the rooms and amenities. The decor was a bit dated there was something kitschy romantic about the giant hot tub rooms. Only stayed one night so I'm unable to judge the service but I was very impressed with the breakfast for Howard Johnson it was a fair amount of selection and fresh food.

I had a good time. It wasn't easy to book a room anywhere else. They accomidated my friends needs very well.

I stayed in the Executive Suite. It was lovely, clean and refreshing.

It is a pleasant home away from home. The guy at the front desk have me no problems when I asked for extra towels. Awesome that a super WaWa is right next door.

I like the place a lot just my only problem is for the jacuzzi bath tub they need to put down special matts so when you walk on the flood after climbing out you don't slip fall and almost break your neck…

It was a pleasant stay, it would have been even better if the guy working the counter did not try and sexually abuse my girlfriend. Realize when you stay there, that a female should not go to the front desk alone at night. Yikes!

The Roman tub rooms are definitely worth the extra cost.

The location is great. There very convenient.

Wow. Weird place. Looks nice but the staff is absolutely horrible, one guy shrieks at you like an angry old woman, tons of hookers and druggies, and for some reason, lots and lots of buzzing flys. Lastly the manager is an angry old coot who prefers hookers to real tenants. Worst hotel ever with worse attitude staff. Go anywhere else.

Decent place. Get what you pay for.

We had orientation at rowan for my daughter and didn't want to drive home and have to drive back next day. Looked for hotel with outdoor pool. Not a 5 star hotel but you get what you pay for. Had so much fun in pool meeting people from all over and wondering why they were all herr. Even met a family from bermuda!

Horrible, dirty, and smells. The carpets were stained and dirty. We requested a cot when we made the reservation, but when we got here no cot. So we requested again that they bring a cot and put it in the room before going out to visit family. Upon returning the cot was left outside the room and it smelled horrible and the held together with the wire from a cell phone charger! I will never stay here again, and I recommend that no one book a room here. Find another hotel.

I was truely appalled by this hotel. The pictures taken of the Lobby are true to form was really nice until we went into our rooms. The door to my room was open and it had a terrible smell, the floors and furniture were dirty, and curtains were hanging on by a thread. I go two door downs to see how my mother in-law's room was. It was just as bad! This hotel reminded me of the CRACK MOTELS in our home city, in which no sane person would visit let alone pay to stay there. I called down to the front lobby and asked if we could please check out. The young lady at the front desk was really nice and she refunded both our credit cards w/ out any fees. Luckily I we were able to find another hotel in the area that was nice. I recommended that if you do not want to score for the night (crack, heroin, meth, AIDS, gonorrhea, or anything else) do not stay here.

They have a reward card. You actually build up points and you get free night stay, discount on other rooms.
