I always stay at the Howard Johnson when I visit Redding.  I currently have my Mom and Grandmother living there, so when I visit I like to have a central location to stay.  I have found that the Howard Johnson on Bechelli is that location.  They have great service, and very clean rooms.  I have always been happy with the service I have received there.  They have a good continental breakfast, and an open pool. This location is always very quite, and is a great location to evening activites, and restaurants.
