12th-16th is listed so far: http://www.hojoanaheim.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=14

But sometimes they add dates right at the beginning of the month. If you book you can get the Ent rate for those nights plus the DIS board rate of 15% off for your last night.

You'll want to call soon, though, and ask for In House reservations. Sometimes they book up all the rooms reserved at that rate.

I have booked the desert inn and suites for 59 a night all week except the last night 16th checking out the 17th is 109 a night.

Trying to see if it is worth going hojo or staying and desert inn

 

[bluegrizzlies1]

does anyone have the code to plug in to see how much on those days.
I know the old code is SD50

 

[avalon451]

Oh, so you would be checking out the 17th- so you could get the $59 standard Ent rate for your whole stay at HoJo, as long as they're not all booked already.

So it comes down to the standard pros/cons for you: Desert Inn, directly across the street as opposed to up one block (a difference of about 3 minutes' walk)... DI has breakfast (though I've heard it's not great) or you could eat b'fast in your room at HoJo... HoJo had inside corridors and a nicer pool area...

I'd say if you just need a place to shower and lay your head, DI would be fine, but you'll save a bit with HoJo and have a nicer room, plus and extra 3 minute walk... which can seem like an extra 3 miles at the end of the night!

You should call and book it anyway, you can always cancel.

It's SD50 but it doesn't always work online. You can get it by calling.

Ent rate is $59 standard room, $74 deluxe.

You can get an Ent book for $10 right now, because they expire Nov. 1. Or if you are going to go back, you can order one for next year and get this year's book for free. You can get the one for the area nearest you, don't need the Anaheim one. You don't need it to book the rate; you just have to show the card when you check in.

Avalon answered your first question above.

Yes, you can leave your car there the entire day when you check out.

You can get a 2008 Entertainment Book for around $10 plus S/H from the website, or you can preorder a 2009 Entertainment Book and get the 2008 one for free...

 

[avalon451]

Depending on what area you get the Entertainment book for... the 2009 for our area is $25. So if I ordered that now, I'd get the 2008 thrown in for free.

I think most of them run 20-30 bucks.

 

[JadeDarkstar]

i just ordered it that was simple

 

[JadeDarkstar]

30in my area but better then 45 lol

 

[bluegrizzlies1]

Ok I booked entertainment rate for my stay now my ? is this.

Where do I get this entertainment card what is it I need ?

I see the books sold on ebay for 3 bucks what in the book do I need ?

I know I can buy the book for 9.99 plus 4.99 shiopping but for 3 bucks why not?

 

[DangerMouse]

The thing with ebay is you need to make certain that they will include the card that comes in the front of the book. The card is what they will want to see at the HoJo. The 2008 book is good through Nov 1st.

 

[bluegrizzlies1]

So it is the card I need what does the card say ?

thanks hojo better be as good as you guys all say lol Im sure it is fine.

339 bucks for 5 nights is a great rate cant pass that up at all.

I have stayed in desert inn and it is fine with me also stayed del sol inn it was alright place to rest my head.

 

[DangerMouse]

I won't stay at the Del Sol (heard too many bad reviews), and I have stayed at DI, and I can honestly say HoJo is MUCH nicer than DI.

 

[bluegrizzlies1]

well the hojo is 70 bucks cheaper then the desert inn so hojo it is.

That everyone for the help on everything for hojo and the card now it is the waiting game.

I just love waiting not.

 

[JadeDarkstar]
