Howard Johnson Express Grand Prairie, Grand Prairie

The one really bad thing was the train and there were buses coming in and leaving them running which was noisy it was pretty cheap though.We reserved and immediatly checked out of another hotel up closer to the highway that was super nasty.There are in room safes which are good if you are shopping and staying more than one night.It is not the worlds most desirable neighborhood but we had friend around here so we stayed.The noise was the worst.Our room was mostly clean.We lost one of the room keys though behind the dresser and had to move it and it was messy back there just like hangers and things like paper but not filth.I can imagine though it would be hard for the cleaning lady to move it.The place is kind of in a u shape so not many people are like driving through. I would recommend this hotel though because for the place it is in trust me it is probably one of the best. The staff is friendly they have breakfast but we did not attend.The cleaning people did not understand english or spanish when I tryed to explain the key but they told me to talk to the office we did not and our other key would not work when we got back and they did it so no one would find it and break in so it shows they do pay attention.The coffee pot worked when it wanted to.I was just happy compared to the Best Western up the road in arlington I was not going to complain after we seen those rooms.
