Buena Vista Suites

[nchulka]

I see that Mousesavers has some deals listed for Buena Vista Suites and it sounds like a good deal. 89.00 per night (select nights) and free parking, free transportation to the parks, and a free breakfast every morning.

My question is has anyone ever stayed here? I'm wondering if it's a full hot breakfast or just some cereal and bagels? How is the free transportation to and from the parks, crowded and difficult, or fast and easy?

Forget the bus to the parks. We did this once too crowed have to wait in a long line and be early for the bus to go back. Going to the parks no problem. The bus goes to several hotels. One of the seats was broken on the bus. Food horrible and overprice. Room ok but you pay for what yo get. Rather stay in disney hotel and use Disney transport. We did it nice never again.

Never had a problem staying there or with the transportation to the parks and I would say you will not find a better value for the price.

I'm staying there at the end of May. Seems like a great value and I thought since it was a mousesavers preferred hotel then it's probably going to be nice. Good luck with your decision!

We stayed here in December of 2009 and really enjoyed it. The rooms are very spacious with 2 queen beds and a separate living area with pull out sofa. You have a small fridge and microwave also. The breakfast was cereals, juice, coffee, pastries and some hot items. Breakfast was very crowded the 3rd week of December but I am sure all resorts were that week.
We did not use the shuttles since we had our car.
I would definitely recommend the hotel!

We stayed 1 night in Jan 2011. It was very nice! The room was great, very comfortable and spacious. We had a car so no info on the shuttles. Breakfast was free, first of all and edible! Cereal, bagels, juice, scrambled eggs and waffles I think. Not great, but not bad. It would get old after a few days. there is a CVS and a 7/11 I think right across the street. The street is busy, but you could walk.

We stayed there a year ago at Spring Break, we thought the breakfast was very good. Scrambled eggs and either pancakes or french toast every day. Lots of cereal, pastries, yogurt. The rooms were very nice. We had a car so did not use the bus.

We've stayed there 3 times in all ~ all short stays of 1-2 nights. It is actually one of my favorite "off site" hotels.

I especially like the size - not too big. I also really like the rooms. I like how there is a separate living room with micro & fridge and 2 TVs and a door to close between them if you want more privacy. Plus, I love that the sink is outside the bathroom and the vanity area is pretty big (we have 2 teen girls, so getting ready in the AM takes awhile ).

I enjoy the breakfast but it can get very crowded & crazy during peak times. It is a buffet with cold & hot items. They even have a spot in the middle with "chefs" and they will make you any kind of eggs, toast, etc. I always go there first and get hot, fresh food and then go for the other stuff. The buffet includes beverages too.

We have never used the shuttle because when we stay off site we always have our own car and prefer to use that.

My only real "negative" would be the pool. It is very small and the once we swam in it, it was cold! And you have to walk through the eating area to get to the pool.

PLUS, Wal-Mart and I-Drive are literally just minutes from this location.
