If the start/finish is in the same place as it is for Princess (I think it is?), she'll be fine. It's actually a very short ride. I'd suggest booking preferred, so that you won't have far to walk though.
The start and finish for all the races are in the Epcot parking lot. I looked at the course maps for the Princess weekend, and the Marathon weekend, and the courses for the same-length runs are very close, if not outright identical.
When pricing a room, she wanted the cheapest room possible. I suggested getting at least a garden view, since it was only like $25 more for the entire trip. She knows how expansive the resort can be, and she said she's fine anywhere.
