It's between Country Inn and Suites and Buena Vista Suites. And since I'm absolutely terrible with decisions, and DH said he didn't want to choose (Cop out!), please help! They're the same price at the end of April, both including breakfast. We're only staying for one night. Here's what's important that I don't know-being able to get there easily from the airport (we always use 417), being able to get to a supermarket easily the next morning, and being able to get to OKW easily. We're very directional challenged, that is, we get lost so easily around WDW. Please help me decide.
 
I haven't stayed at either of these. However, I think I've read repeatedly that the Country Inn and Suites has a really small pool. So, on that I think I'd go w/ the Buena Vista Suites.

Don't forget to check the main page of the DIS-- www.wdwinfo.com because we've had some great deals for Buena Vista Suites there lately.
 
first port of call is to visit trip advisor. That's where I found this place

I stayed at the country inn and suites on the 535 last May.

It is a smallish hotel, nothing fancy. Very nice and clean. Breakfast is basic, no bacon or sausage etc. But you do get very nice waffles.

The rooms are big enough for 4, you get a micro and small fridge in your room.

Yes the pool is small. Most days we had it to oursselves, as no one seems to use it. Next door is the shearaton safari and we used their pool as well.

There are loads of places to eat nearby, in front of the hotel is a sizzler very nice food and cheap too.

It was the cheapest place to stay. We would stay there again. We paid £400 stirling for the hotel. Other hotels in the area were £600.00 for 2 weeks.

If you just want somewhere to sleep then I would stay here. If you want to spend more time in your hotel, then stay somewhere else.

As for getting from orlando airport, we headed for the 14, then picked up the signs for the 535. If you follow the directions on tripadvisor, you can't go wrong. There is an easier way, but we got lost coming out of the airport and ended up coming the to the hotel the long way round.

It is also close to downtown and the parks. 10 mins at the most to down town, 20 mins to the MK in June traffic. It is very near the I4, so it is easy to get everywhere else as well. The other place you are looking at, is at the other side of I4, and further from downtown, but probably as quick to MK etc. It is a bit more up market and rooms are bigger.

We didn't have a suite at the country inn we had a standard room and this was fine.
