My HOJO where did you go???
Alright, the location is THE BEST for any returning UW Alumn...it is right accross the street from the old apartment and just like being a student again. It's right by the Gritty and a hop, skip, and a jump from State. Not much has changed since Doubletree took over the HOJO. The Badgerland grill, pool, and spa are all there. There are the same tokens for the parking ramp and seems like many of the friendly staff are still there. The rooms seem the same too.
Some nice features include the full line of Neutragina products in the bathroom and the loaner umbrellas for the occasional thunder storm.
The downside:
Doubletree = Double Price
The hotel costs twice what it did when it was a HOJO and a hot cookie does not make up the difference.
