    Right! And then it was a full day of Dabob "dropping" his room key and loudly saying, "Oh, my! I just dropped my Grand Californian room key!" Then he'd make a big production about picking it back up, pretend that it squirted through his fingers like a bar of soap, and he'd chase after it shouting "My Grand Californian room key! My Grand Californian room key!" And that was when I met up with him in freakin' New York! I mean, come on!

    How many times do I have to say, I am not an egotist. Narcissist covers it more really.

    Let's call a spade a spade, it's a DUMP compared to the GCH. If someone has an annual pass and stays overnight quite a bit, then it might make a passable place to crash. But someone lives out of the area and is looking for the total resort experience and can afford it, then the GCH is the absolute way to go. I've soured on the DLH, as my recent thread covered, and since then we've had occasion to visit friends who were staying at the GCH. The rooms are just like Marriott rooms (and we really like the Marriotts we've stayed in places like Palm Desert, San Francisco, Phoenix and Chicago), which frankly is better than any PP or DLH room. We're looking forward to the GCH next December for my wife's annual birthday trip.<<

    Where PP calls Hojo"s a DUMP! NOT!

    That is the issue, not that GCH is a nice place, but that SPP called HoJo's a DUMP!

    Just plain TACKY!

    So very typically, Darkbeer might actually be right if that was what SPP said.

    But it WASN'T what he said, and DB even provides the correct quote right above his poutrage.

    He didn't call it a dump, he called it a dump COMPARED TO the Grand Californian...huge difference.

    Because that's actually true.

    Just like a 1998 Nissan Skyline GT might be a perfectly nice car, in good condition even <a href="http://tinyurl.com/y95cx37" target="_blank">http://tinyurl.com/y95cx37</a>

    it's still a piece of garbage compared to a brand new Cadillac<a href="http://pictures.topspeed.com/IMG/crop/200805/2010-cadillac-cts-v-_460x0w.jpg" target="_blank">http://pictures.topspeed.com/I...0x0w.jpg</a>
