Android parsing special characters in json response

Question

In my Android app, I get a JSON response string with PHP url. from the answer I get the names of the hotels with apostrophe, I get the symbol 'instead apostrophe. How can I make out a hotel with special characters in android?I can see the apostrophe in the browser but could not see in android logcat.

I tried jresponse = URLEncoder.encode(jresponse,"UTF-8");, but I could not get apostrophefor the name of the hotel.

This is the name of the hotel in response.

 I see the following in browser.

    {"id":12747,
     "name":"Oscar's",
     ....
    }
But in the logcat:

     id 12747
     name Oscar's
