We stayed at the HoJo for one night because we needed a hotel close to the airport. I figured that HoJo would be a safe bet because it's a chain which I thought would have consistent standards of cleanliness. I was wrong. First off, when we arrived at the hotel on Saturday evening, there was one man working the front... more

After having a nightmare of a situation at another "resort" hotel and having to find a place to stay during high tourist season. I called the Howard Johnson's and asked if there was availability for check-in the next day. For 5 nights we paid about 700 dollars including taxes. We were pleasantly surprised with the Marble pillars and elegant floors... more

Stayed the weekend of March 17th. The hotel was nice, room was clean - we even got a suite with a huge bathroom. The pool was nice, could use a hot tub but still was enjoyable. It was also nice to have the beach right across the street and the hotel will give you towels. Only negative was the restaurant.... more

The seventies decor was outdated and drab. The bathrooms were small and dirty (there was someone else’s hair on the toilet). The desk staff copped an attitude about making the reservation through Expedia. The view of the beach is mostly blocked by another high-rise. The complimentary breakfast was a joke. You're given breakfast vouchers for the upstairs restaurant and it's... more

After reviewing all the info, we called the Hotel directly. Booked for the evening of Feb. 11, 2007. We actually didn't even know there was a location in Old San Juan, but certainly would not have wanted to stay there, as we were on our way out of the city the next day. We had confirmed reservations....yet had to pay... more

I can not say enough about the staff at this hotel. They were all wonderful and treated us like gold. Staff made several phone calls for me attempting to set up a fishing charter, called the rental car(Budget)for me, to cancel since they are no longer located at the hotel. Chose 'Charlies car rental' a couple blocks away, instead, cost... more

I just wanted a clean a safe room for a weekend trip in San Juan. This hotel delivered that. I knew that the hotel was accross the street from the beach but in front of a condo so I didn't expect much of a view except maybe the highway so I was pleasantly surprised when my 7th floor room had... more

I stayed at the HoJo, Isla Verde for 5 nights and absolutely loved the stay there. The staff was very courteous and the room was nice and clean. The bathroom was a bit small but we didn't mind. We had a Junior Suite at the HoJo. The seafood restaurant on the lobby level was gorgeous with some delicious meals served.... more

Stayed at this hotel while attending a weddking, and for those purposes it was fine. The room was comfortable and though we were on a smoke-free floor, you could smell smoke. One small elevator to serve 9 floors. (Actually, there is an additional down the short service hall to the right of the main elevator. But the staff have tried... more

My husband and I stayed at Howard Johnson in Isla Verde in March 17-20. We were disappointed as soon as we checked in and saw our room. It was on the lobby floor which may not have been terrible except for the fact that the room was tiny, you could hear everything that was happening outside of the room and... more
