Drove into the HoJo's from behind, it is painted partially turquoise (not recently) and looked abandoned....I was pretty nervous and irate because it is not a cheap place, especially for what it is. THe front was slightly more presentable, but not much. The outside appearance is pretty bad actually, and makes me wonder why they haven't updated it. The inside... more

We chose this hotel because (1) we wanted a hotel in South Portland, (2) the price was considerably lower than other hotels in the area, (3) it had an indoor pool for the kids. This hotel is only two miles away from the Maine Mall and about 10-15 miles away from Old Orchard Beach. The price was very desirable ($114... more

This is your average chain motel. It's clean, they have internet and a swimming pool and we did get good rates. It's not in central Portland, but in South Portland, a separate city as it seems. While I can't say anything against this motel, I have to admit that I wouldn't come to Portland a second time, because the city... more

After bidding and bidding for about 2 weeks, finally just gave in to Priceline's 2-Star options, and got this HoJo's at about $105/night. [For those that are familiar with [--]'s bidding feature, believe me - I started at $50/night and worked my way through all options until this was really the bottom line..] Seemed a bit steep for something 2-Star,... more

We weren’t sure what to expect due to some of the reviews but we took our chances anyways and everything was wonderful. When you first arrive you walk into a comfortable lobby with leather couches and internet work stations. Check in was fast and within minutes we were in our room. When we finally got down to the room we... more

Just returned from 3 wks in New England, staying at hotels by several of the well known chains - Best(sic) Western, Holiday Inn, Sheraton & Doubletree. Stayed at two 'HoJos' including 1 night at this one. (Middletown RI was the other). To be honest, we had relatively low expectations compared with the other chains but have to say both hotels... more

We would not stay at this hotel again. The corner of the floor by the tub in our bathroom had black mold. I took a tissue and gave it a rub to see if would come off and it would. I then went to the front desk where they seemed amazed that there would be mold in the room. They... more

We stayed here for 1 night. I must say we hadn't stayed at a HoJo in many years, and I had a somewhat negative impression of the chain. But this one exceeded our expectations. Anywhere in New England in July is very expensive, but we got 2 rooms here for about $80/night each, using coupons in the travelers' books they... more
