Probably because the OP doesn't care about free food (taken from the first post.) And personally, if you take away the free breakfast, I actually prefer a CY over a HGI.

Note that as a Gold/Plat, I've had very good luck in getting suite upgrades at CYs over the years. And I like the CY suites (two separate rooms, refrig, microwave, 2 TVs, living area, etc.)
