I liked everything
AmberCanadaSmall toilets but comfy beds. Would stay again,
The beds were incredibly comfortable. Probably the best bed I’ve slept in at a hotel in years.
The bathrooms are quite small. The room was also a little small compared to sister hotel super 8.

- The pet fee and any size limit, which is where these bookings usually come apart.

Questions about Howard Johnson by Wyndham Thunder Bay
What time is check-in and check-out at Howard Johnson by Wyndham Thunder Bay?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Howard Johnson by Wyndham Thunder Bay have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Howard Johnson by Wyndham Thunder Bay have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Howard Johnson by Wyndham Thunder Bay?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Howard Johnson by Wyndham Thunder Bay?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
