Couldn't get the 20.03 rate? Don't give up!

When I called Marriott I was told the rate wasn't available, that it was sold out but I just kept calling. I've booked 4 out of the 5 nights I was hoping for just by calling back. We're going the week of Sept. 27th! So if you were told it was sold out please keep trying. You might get a surprise

Is there a bus that brings you to the parks? Like buses for the on site resorts? Also what is the tax on the 20.03 and are there any other charges. Thinking seriously about calling to see if what I want is avaibale.
Thanks

That's wonderful. I'm going to be there the same week. Have you stayed at the CBM before? I was there when it was the Howard Johnson's back in the mid 80's. Can't wait to see what Courtyard has done with it, I'm assuming it's been renovated since then.

Have a nice trip.

Yes, they have busses to the parks. I paid $111.70 for all 5 days, there are no other charges except tax. Good luck to you.

I asked about tax and she said it was 4.90 per night, I think that's right. Downtown Disney transportation is available to those how stay at this hotel.

I haven't stayed there before dturner but I'm sure I'll love it. This is as close to staying on property as I've gotten before. I've been to WDW about 8 times I think now but have never stayed onsite. I'm pretty excited about the whole thing

I too am excited as before this rate came out, I wasn't planning on going to Orlando this year. Since this rate was only Sun. - Thurs. I added an extra night at $99.00 (hoping I can get a weekend rate closer to the end of September)

You'll love taking the busses to the parks - beats driving and having to pay parking.

Hope you have a good trip.
