HoJo vs Crown Plaza

[DisneyMomof2inSLC]

Hi Everyone!! I have a quick opinion question. We will be returning to Disney December 5-10 and am wondering if to stay at HoJo or Crown Plaza. I've never stayed at either. I can't decide which would be better. Does anyone have an opinion? I'm confused!! But totally excited to be going!!

I've stayed at both in the past few years. If the price is about the same, I'd stay at the HoJo. Its walking distance to the parks and there is no fee to park your car. As long as you stay away from building 1 (the back side of it at least, due to the freeway noise), you should be just fine there.

The Crowne Plaza is a pretty nice place right next to some good restaurants, but its not walking distance, you'd have to take a shuttle. Parking there if I recall is free if you self park, but the parking lot is horribly packed so we ended up valet parking the whole time we were there.

Choose the hojo!! Crowne is far away, parking stinks and the neighborhood isn't that great. They hold a lot of parties (at least when we were there) and it made a negative impact on our stay (beer bottles, smokers by the pool area, vomit, etc). We love the hojo...their grounds, their pool areas, the whole feel and being so close to the parks.
