A very old fashioned hotel. Howard Johnson is a legendary brand. This hotels infrastructure is somewhat dated, but the rooms were 5Star Clean, and the beds were super comfortable and well made. AC was cold, shower had great pressure and very hot, soft clean towels! Absolute steal and I will stay here anytime I am heading to Gothenburg.

We've stayed at the Gothenburg HoJo's before and will continue to stay there whenever visiting central Nebraska. Over the years the staff is always friendly and courteous, and the rooms nicely furnished and very clean. There is never a question as to as to where we'll hang our hats overnight when in the Cozad, Gothenburg, Brady or Maxwell area.
