[albertamommyof4]

i was wondering what you all would choose and why?
We do have a Parlour A suite at desert inn and suites booked and it will be aout $765 plus resort fee for 6 nights, i found the camelot inn one bedroom family suite so more beds for $1065 for 6 nights there is 2 adults and 4 kids in party ranging from 11 to 2 . Also does anyone have any pictures of the fa,ily suite at camelot that they would love to share?
Thanks

We stayed here last year, and it was FABULOUS! The service wasn't exceptional - just average, but I LOVE those rooms! The family suite is HUGE (sorry for all the CAPS! ) - when you walk in, there is a coffee table and sofa (pulls out into double bed - we never used it.) and a King bed, armoire, kitchen table w 4 chairs, kitchen sink, counter, cupboards, microwave, coffee maker, etc... There is also a massive wardrobe which held all 3 carseats plus our shoes, coats, hanging clothes, etc. Then an adjoining door takes you to another room, where the bathroom, vanity, 2 double beds, small table and chair are located. The wardrobe in this room held all our empty suitcases and the kids' carry-on backpacks.

I have a few lousy pics in my TR (link in my siggy) - I never remembered to take photos of the room all by itself. I think these rooms are quite a bit larger than the DI - at least, from the photos I have seen of the DI (never been there). The King bed room has tons of floor space - enough for 2 boys to spread out two huge lego kits and not mix them up!

I will look thru my trip pics to see what I may have - it may give you an idea. Also, the room looked exactly like the pics on their website.

Thank you so much ( your kids are so cute) the room looks nice and the continental breakfast seemed okay
I like the fact that all of us could sleep in a bed , instead of the sleeper sofa .

My vote is also the Camelot. We book the two bedroom family sweet and it was really big, rooms were nice, I thought the beds were comfortable ,I had no complaints it worked our great. The service was just ok nothing special but it did the job for me.

thanks everyone, i think we are going to go with Camelot, it seems everyone will be more comfortable there.

The Camelot rooms are definitely bigger.

Here's my link with a review and pictures to the Camelot suite.

I stayed in a king bed room and although the room was ok, I will not stay there again as the bed was the worst I have ever experienced in any motel world wide and I travel a lot. It was hard as a rock and lumpy with a plastic type matress protector which caused the sheet to slide and bunch up under you. I like a good night sleep and didn't sleep a lot whilst we were there.

Reception service was very ordinary, no happy smiles etc. but that didn't worry us too much. Breaky was to be expected, nothing great but MacDonalds is right next door if you need something more.

We are coming back this September but not returning to Camelot Inn & Suites.

We have stayed at the Dessert Inn Suites many times and do like it. The Parlor suites is nice because it has a door that shuts and you can have a few minutes without kids at night... you know the "turn the lights off and kids fall asleep, while you rest in the other room with lights on" deal.

Never stayed at the other.

Thanks everyone. I did book the camelot with a package through getaway so it is all paid for lol. We decided the camelot as then everyone can sleep in a actual bed not a sofa sleeper and i think that everyone would rather the beds after a long day in park .
Thanks again for all your opinions
