Hotel Recommendations between Ocala and Orlando

[brightcutie]

Does anyone have a recommendation for a hotel between Ocala and Orlando? We have about a ten hour drive and like to drive all day with lots of stops for stretching and eating and then get a hotel about an hour away from WDW. Does anyone have recommendations for a good hotel? We usually just drive and pull in at one that looks good, but I would like to see if I can get a better deal by booking early.

There really aren't that many on that stretch; the Turnpike starts a bit south of Ocala and there are essentially no hotels on it.

There are several hotels around I-75 exit 350 in Ocala,but that's about the only area where they are plentiful.

Huge fan of the Sleep Inn and Suites at exit 341 off of 75 in Ocala. It is about 45 minutes to an hour from there to wdw. Stayed there numerous times and it is clean and safe with places to eat and get fuel nearby. Staying there in July on our next trip.
