Hotel w/ Free Breakfast near Seaworld? Help me!

[seashell724]

Hi all!
I am investigating a hotel around the Seaworld area (although not limited to it.) The reason I am thinking of this area is b/c it is close to a lot of attractions and would be cheaper than close to Disney.

There are SO many hotels around there though! I am looking for something with free breakfast (like a holiday inn express perhaps), pool, clean. If possible a tiny fridge or microwave in room but this is not mandatory. We would not need a shuttle b/c we would have a car.

I do want something cheap but when I say cheap I do not mean, scary roadside motel with bugs cheap.

I am very familiar with travel websites and have looked around lots but thought I should ask the experts what they think!

Last August we stayed at the Marriott Residence, Seaworld - large rooms, an excellent breakfast and only three minutes drive to Seaworld (also I-drive trolley stop outside if you wanted a day off driving). Not sure how much the cost would be as we had the hotel free of charge

We used Priceline to book a room for around 40usd + tax.
We have choosen the Universal/seaworld area and got the Hyatt Place
convention. This is including breakfast.
Problem is that there is no seaworld area so you could end up in the
Universal area too. Personally I don't mind the location as we have a rental
car. You could also look at Hotwire where you could find hotels in the
Seaworld area specifically for very reasonable prices. Good luck!

Is Homewood Suites out of your budget? I got it on hotwire for a good rate. When are your dates? If you look on Hotwire, next to the hotel there will be icons. If you mouse over it, it tells you what the icon is. Many include complimentary breakfast.

What about Buena Vista suites? It is close to WDW and SW. They have great rates on mousesavers.com. I just booked a one bedroom for June for 2 nights while going to SW and it includes a full breakfast for $89. The pool is small, but they said you can use the pool at their sister resort, Caribe royale. Oh, and the rooms have just been remodeled.

Good ideas everyone! I don't have specific dates yet but this helps get the ball rolling.
