The hype
Great location and fun pools for the kids, but the rooms are basic and the noise levels can be high.
Howard Johnson By Wyndham By Niagara Falls
$56-150/ noapte
Rezervă dacă You want a budget-friendly, family-oriented basecamp right in the middle of the Clifton Hill action with indoor and outdoor pools.
De ce o iubesc oamenii
- Unbeatable location 5 minutes from the SkyWheel and Clifton Hill
- On-site food court with Denny's, Pizza Hut, and Baskin Robbins
- Connected indoor and outdoor heated pools
Privire rapidă: It's a classic 3-star tourist hotel that nails the location and family amenities, but suffers from thin walls, loud AC units, and nickel-and-diming fees.
Evaluat de @kaliyah.wellness: I stayed at this Howard Johnson and it was definitely a mixed bag. The king room was huge and having Denny's next door was super convenient, but the bathroom was tiny and the hot tub wasn't clean. It's an okay budget spot, just don't expect luxury.

Reality check
The 'cheap' room rate often inflates quickly once you add parking, extra guest fees, and taxes.
- You are traveling with kids and want easy access to arcades and fast food
- You plan to spend most of your time exploring the Falls and just need a place to crash
- You love having a 24/7 Denny's right in the lobby
Curățenie și Întreținere
6
- Housekeeping: Hit or miss. Many report immaculately clean rooms, while others complain of missed trash and dusty corners.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally acceptable, though some guests note peeling paint and older fixtures that show their age.
- Maintenance: The property is renovated, but older bones mean occasional plumbing quirks and loud, rattling AC units.
- Linens & towels: Standard budget hotel quality. Clean, but don't expect plush luxury; some reports of stained sheets during peak season.
- Odors & scents: Mostly fine, but a few guests have reported musty smells in the hallways or lingering cleaning product scents.
