We are a family of 6 as well.. we stayed at Homewood suites and we reserved a 1 bedroom.. it is not a bad price when you think that you get breakfast AND dinner! They gave us a complimentary upgrade to a 2 bedroom when we got there too! It is WELL worth the money!
I totally agree that the Homewood is well worth the money! We've stayed a couple of other places, and always end up returning to the Homewood even though it costs a bit more! We're only a family of 4, but having a suite makes it easier for the kids to settle down when they're excited before a trip.
We stayed at Homewood with 5 girls for a shopping weekend. It was fantastic. We had a 2 bedroom and there was tonnes of room (2 bathrooms as well which is nice) and the breakfast was good.
I believe our rate was about $230 so not much more than 2 rooms at a traditional hotel.
