I stayed here for two nights in March. The hotel is on the strip, about half way between the big casinos and downtown. Yes, the room was worn and the furnishings tired, but you get what you pay for and this place was a bargain. The sheets and towels were clean, the kingsize bed comfortable enough, and at $66 a night (through Venere.com) I had no complaints. Las Vegas was heavily booked while I was there. The big casino hotels were charging over $350 a night, and closer to my arrival date the HoJo rate climbed to over $200, which I would not have been happy to pay.

The hotel has a pool which looked fine, though I didn't use it. There is a large parking lot behind the hotel, and I got high speed internet for free. I wouldn't recommend this as a place for hanging out, but if you just want a bed, it's a reasonable choice.

Was not pleased with this property. We were here on business and had to pick a place close to our event. All around this area were wedding chapels and people walking. It was kind of scary. Everything here was small. The bathroom, you were barely able to get into and the one queen we had was almost at the dresser at the end of the bed. I just felt cramped in this room and wouldn't really recommend unless you have no choice.

I cannot stress enough, do not stay at this hotel. We were asked to leave by the manager for querying that we had booked a king bed and the bed in our room was a queen. He told us just because we had booked it doesnt mean we get it! I am not joking I have never experienced a hotel or hotel staff like it. We had no where else to go but were told "don't worry we can find you somewhere" "if you don't like it you can leave" we saw the manager also ask for "time outs" with other guests. The 2nd night the air conditioning broke in the room and we were too scared to complain even though it was 126 degrees outside, we also wanted more pillows but were afraid to ask, also our tv and lights in the rm did not work. The hotel is right at the end of the strip a good 45mins to an hour walk to the main hotels, please do yourself a favour and stay at one of the resorts, we moved to the MGM grand and it was fantastic and cheaper!!! I have complained to Howard Johnson and I got a free night to stay there again, if I return to las vegas. Trust me if I return to LV I will never ever go back to this hotel again.

For only $50 per nite, we were able to sleep our family of 4, have a nice dip in a pool, & a great breakfast. It's on the strip, yes, but you need a car. It's an easy drive to the downtown casino area or the fancy casinos on the main part of the strip. But, none of the casinos charge for parking, so it's no problem to have to drive there.

I loved the cuban toast and cafe con leche for breakfast at the Florida cafe.

One downside: the ice machines could not keep up with the demand.

i stayed here because it was the most inexpensive hotel i could find for my friend's birthday. there was what looked to be BLOOD in the sink, the towels literally had dirt on them. the sheets and pillow cases had cigarette burns in them, there was a "suspicious" stain on the floor next to the bed. while we were sleeping, a large motorcycle gang (maybe 30 people or more???) was outside blaring loud music, having a party and yelling from about midnight until approx. 4am. we called the front desk about 5 times to complain and ask them to get security to shut the people up. they refused. then at 6am, the motorcycle gang started up again, reving their engines, talking loud, playing music. we called again, still no help. when we checked out, we demanded a refund and luckily we got one. it turns out, that night, because the motorcycle gang was SO scary, several staff members QUIT and the entire lobby was filled with complaining hotel guests, all demanding their money back. this place is DISGUSTING. do NOT stay here.
