Originally Posted By wolfchild Okay, so the dates have been finalized for our next DL trip. The DH and I are heading there for the second weekend in May with another couple.

What I was wondering, was if anybody had good recommendations for h/motels that are decent, decently priced and an easy drive to the Mickey and Friends lot. Thanks in advance! Jenny

Our rate was only about $70/night, great free continental breakfast with 2 belgian waffle makers, pastries of all kinds and several types of cereals, milk, juice and fresh fruit (apples & bananas). The room was a great size for the 5 of us (2 adults and 3 children). 2 queen beds, very clean, easy parking, easy drive to the Mickey & Friends lot and they allowed us to check in 6 hours early!

My only complaint was that the pickup for ART is on a freeway on ramp, but since you are driving to the lot it wouldn't matter. It was clean, lots of parking and good free breakfast.

Not the fanciest place on the planet but it was clean and comfortable.

Very close 2 minute drive. Price was $39 plus tax. Its supposedly undergoing rennovations, but if you are just looking for a place to sleep and shower you cant beat the price.

You don't get to choose the exact hotel, just quality level (3*), but with a car it doesn't matter if you're a few miles away. Haven't stayed here before, but Trip Advisor gives it great reviews.
