Residence Inn Maingate vs Candy Cane

[Mazel]

They both seem to be equal distance and they are the same price for when I'm going. RIM seems to have a better, hot breakfast.

We're undecided on which hotel to pick. Any thoughts, or suggestions?

Without knowing what is important to you, it is really hard to say... Are you traveling with kids?

I really like Candy Cane for our shorter trips, but like Residence Inn for anything longer than 2 days. Just having more space really helps. We usually choose a premium room at Candy Cane, and enjoy the in room breakfast.

At the Residence Inn, we take a 1 bedroom.

We are traveling with a 6 year old. It was for a studio at the RIM and a premium room at CCI. I think I like the idea of the hot breakfast, since I'm not a cake, donut type person.

Are they about the same distance?

No, CCI is considerably closer, and they have their own shuttle. CCI has bagels/english muffins/toast, fruits, along with oatmeal and various other cereals. They bring milk and juice in carafes. It is substantial enough to hold us to lunch.

Residence Inn is about 25% further. (I wouldn't expect a 6yo to walk this a couple times a day...) You can pay for the ART, which is decent on this route. The breakfast consists of waffles, scrambled eggs, breakfast meats (varies daily, bacon, ham, sausage), biscuits and gravy, french toast or pancakes, ot tortillas and beans, and there is a variety of cereals, bagels, muffins, fruits, and milk/juices.

Thanks, so much for the info.

I'm not worried about my 6 y/o and the walk,(he makes the energizer bunny look like a slacker) it's my husband who hurt his knee and has been having problems.
