Bwog Recommendations:

Hogan offers an appealing alternative to EC for seniors with excellent lottery numbers. It offers most of the same amenities as EC and is arguably in a more convenient location. Unlike EC, all of the rooms are singles, ranging from reasonably sized to very large.

Opinions:

“More convenient location than EC, pretty much all the same amenities, and you don’t have to deal with EC craziness when you go home.”
“Room size varies between the different suites from decently sized singles to massive singles. Either way, you win.”
“Common area is huge, and makes it super easy to host people if you want to.”
“There’s only one bathroom in the suite, but the bathroom and shower are split up so it’s totally fine.”
