The regular discount link with Mousesavers from their site for the Doubletree includes Continental breakfast. Some times they get a different discount that comes via email and the current one has free parking and wifi instead of breakfast think and is around $129 a night. I put in some dates for September and the rate was $120 per night with the breakfast. We would get two suites at the Doubletree and not get a car, just rent a Mears van to and from the airport and walk to DS or Crossway for meals on off days and bus to the parks the rest of the days. At around $240 a night with no rental car it seems like a better deal to me that messing with a rental. We will see what mom and husband think when it gets closer. A rental condo at around $100 a night, $90 a day for rental van with full insurance (we live outside the US so have to purchase it) plus gas and $20 for parking at Disney on park days make the numbers pretty close but we would eat out less with a full kitchen we could stock with lots of snacks and grab and go foods, not sure how much we could stick in two mini fridges at Doubletree.
The rental car insurance can be massive. That's when renting a car can become really problematic. I don't know if the Doubletree has adjoining suites. You should call the front desk to ask. You certainly would have a lot of room with the two suites. I would call the front desk to ask about the "little extras" room. I think they stock the fridge with snacks (like a free "mini-bar").
