Verdict

The call

Visit Orlando and HotelDO both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of HotelDO's written reviews are positive against 56% of Visit Orlando's. HotelDO also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 3 months). Visit Orlando's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
