Help - Cheap trip to WDW ... Value Resorts

[VAN]

We usually drive to WDW with our camper and stay for 2 weeks at Ft Wilderness in the spring, but my DH wants to take 2 weeks to go out to Yellowstone next year. I'm all for that, however, my kids are both in college and work all summer so won't be able to go.

My DD mentioned that she'd like to go to WDW for spring break but that her friend didn't sound excited. I said I would go!! We will fly down and try to keep things as inexpensive as possible. There are 2 colleges in town and she wants to transfer for 2nd semester but we don't know if that will happen (not sure of spring break times). We will either go for 1 week beginning Feb 25th or 1 week beginning March 4, 2006.

I have made two separate, room only reservations at the All Star Movies resort w/ a AAA discount of $97+tax per night. We will have to wait to book flights until we find out for sure our dates and we plan to buy the 10 day PH No-Expiry tickets (we know we'll use remaining days on a future trip).

I have never stayed at the Value resorts before and am a bit leary about it, but it is Disney and we won't have to get a car. I'd love to stay at a Mod, but they are pricing $50 more per night.

Any suggestions other than checking for codes to come out for our time period? Also, does anyone know if the Movies is the one to stay at or are they all basically the same with different theming?

Thanks for any help you can offer!!

I have stayed at ASMovies twice in the last year and loved it. I prefer Movies, but if you want less kids, more quiet, I'd go with Music. They are all really about the same setup, busses, food courts, etc.

It's a room with beds and a bath. All you really need if you are spending most of your time in the pool or the parks I think. You can always book dinner reservations at the deluxes and Ft. Wilderness so you can visit them!
