clarion suites maingate or best western lake buena vista

[julieannbabe]

i am on a budget. both of these hotels have been given bad opinions on trip advisor.
i just want a room to sleep.
i am not sure which one to choose. best western lake buena vista near DTD has a hotel shuttle but it picks up at other hotels - so i am worried that it wouldn't get tothe parks 30 minutes before opening in time.
the clarion inn maingate has a shuttle - but also has the lynx bus stop outside the hotel - which i could pay $2.00 for and get to the ticket and transportation center at the time i choose.

as i said they both have had bad reviews - which hotel should i stay at?

thanks.

BW @ DTD if it is a matter of being worried about the extra 30 minutes added onto your trip time, I don't think it will add that much time. That hotel is I think the one of the last stops.. it use to be that stop, then 2 more after that..then off to Disney's ticket center.. so that would not add 30 minutes, maybe 15 or so more..
On your return trip it will add time. What you can do is when it stops at the hotel across from your's, you can get off there and walk across the street to your hotel..

I just got back from the Best Western and it was not bad at all. Just ask for a recently renovated room on a higher floor. We were in room 1702 and it was clean, great view , nice beds etc. all for a very cheap rate.
