We are considering staying at this hotel as we have had to downgrade our planned 08/2010 trip somewhat. My daughter is going to France w/ her French club so we need to save for that. But...we are still going so that is a plus. Anyhow, who has stayed here? How are the shuttles to the parks? Please give me your opinions, comments, etc.
I have stayed there 3,times.
The rooms are bigger than usual, and the balcony are great as an evening cool off.
I will say that in general this hotel are very ok.
But it is a little worn out.
The housekeeping are a little shaggy, (a toy stayed under our bed for 2 weeks, as did the "fluffy hair" idk the word

that was stuck outside the bathroom´s AC.
The Park busses runs every 30.min. These goes all day, until 2 hr after park closing.
The busses picks up other guests at other DTD hotels.
The busses are usually full,and a seat issnt always available.
The bus takes about 30,min to the park. (animal kingdom 20,min.MK 35,min,aprox).
Look for the hotel across the street,named Royal Plaza if You can.
Great deals here most of the time :

It has better rooms, and better cleanness,and better service.
The +For Best Western are The balcony and the view.(if You get a good view room)
Ps. Same bus system.
Have a magical trip.
