So, my 19yo and I are planning to take the 24h day next year.
We are planning to stay in the park the entire time, so I don't want to waste money on an expensive room on property.
I live three hours away but can't imagine pulling off the 24-hour day after a the hour car ride in Orlando morning rush hour traffic. Yuck.
I figure if the day ends at 6am we can reasonably expect to be back to the room by 8ish. Even with a late checkout that's not enough also to drive back home, so we'll probably need to fork over for the third day (but really just sleep until whenever and come home).
This also need we can't check out on our way to MK and get a new room after the park, because we'd be steamed without a room until 3pm check in time.
With some of the Rock bottom process I've gotten in years past it seems worth it.
So I'm looking for suggestions on something nearby. The closer the better since we will likely leave the car at the hotel and Uber to/from the park (so I don't fall asleep at the wheel on the way back).
Because it's just us girls traveling alone, and because I'll be leaving my car unattended for like 28h, I'd really like something secure. Not seedy.
We are literally going to be sleeping there only so it doesn't need to be fancy. I don't care about breakfast.
I got a great deal years and years ago at the Rodeway Inn. Is that still ok? Thoughts?
What about those timeshare places? Can I get 3 nights there at a reasonable price and maybe we could chill at the pool before or after?
Thanks!
