Howard Johnson by Wyndham Hershey

Location: The hotel is conveniently located near Hershey Park and other local attractions, offering easy access to shops, dining options, and entertainment venues, which enhances the overall guest experience.

Walls in the room looked fairly freshly painted but badly. Lots of gouges and scuffs. Carpeting seemed newish but smelled strongly like disinfectant (better that than other smells, I guess). Mattresses sagged, and the pillows smelled like smoke. Zero noise filtering from the walls. Tried to block out sound by putting the fan on the AC in the on position but it still cycled on and off. Speaking of the A/C, it did not sufficiently cool the room. We booked this place partly because it offered free breakfast, and I remembered from my childhood that it was nice. Joke’s on me, I guess. A bowl of apples, one of those cereal dispensers with frosted flakes or raisin bran, some instant oatmeal packets, orange juice and coffee (regular only, no decaf) Even “continental” breakfasts offer some kind of bread and tea. There were vending machines but they were all broken and empty. It’s not like the price of the place was super cheap, either. We have actually paid less at other places and had awesome free breakfasts. The Howard Johnsons of my youth are apparently gone. So disappointing. Wyndham should be embarrassed.

Budget hotel so for what it was it was fine. Just know going in that the rooms will be small and dated. The carpet was brown and I didn’t walk in bare feet. The bathroom was clean and there were plenty of very clean towels. Breakfast was the bare minimum, Oatmeal packets, apples, cereal. There is a fabulous place across the street Desserts, Inc open 6am till 9pm. This hotel is good place to save money for 1 or 2 nights but personally I wouldn’t do longer. Check in person was very nice and helpful Spotty Wi-Fi
