If you do decide to stay at HOJO make sure to ask to be in a building in the front of the parking lot. We were in the last building and so in addition to having to walk all the way from the park we also had to walk all the way across the property. This added at least five minutes to our walk I would say. Does not sound like much, but when you are dead on your feet tired it is. On the positive side it was very clean and a nice place to stay. We thought BWPPI was clean also, and had a fridge (so did HOJO). For the proximity BWPPI can't be beat.

Hojo is our 1st choice in that area for the same reasons everyone else loves it. We can do the walk, with kids, in under 7 min in the morning. But at night coming home we drag it into a 10-12 minute walk because we are so tired. We still feel its worth it though, even w/o counting the pools. Its the quiet interior hallways and private balconies that we appreciate. They have just trimmed the trees in front of BLDG 1 (the closer one) and the view on the DL side is even better now.
