The family and I were at c2e2 on Saturday. It was definitely the most crowded one yet. We stayed at the hotel attached to the convention center, and from our window we could see all the cosplayer posing for pictures on the front steps.

 This is the second year in a row that someone at the con asked me if I was Woody Harrelson. I guess I should dress up like his Zombieland character next year.

 We might be going to Motor City Con, but haven't decided yet for sure.

Jodi, Embassy Suites and the Hyatt are both connected to the convention center via an overhead walkway.  So no need to ever walk outside, especially if the weather is not good.  I know there's a third (which used to be Sofitel), but I don't know the name.  Doubletree and Crowne Plaza are both within very easy walking distance.

So it just comes down to your budget then.

IMO, you may want to go with Embassy Suites because you get the free breakfast.  There's not a lot within walking distance in terms of restaurants, especially for breakfast.  Though I am sure all the other hoitels have restaurants, I know the meals there are pricey!

Just my 2¢.  :-)
