I am looking for a hotel that is within an hour or so of the resort (coming down I-95 and I-4) to stay on a Saturday night before our check-in of Sunday (end of March).
Am I better at staying at chain hotel south of Jacksonville or near Daytona or are there affordable options near the resort? I've seen some places on Priceline that seem to be on 192, but not sure the quality of them (don't know if I care too much for just a bed .. just don't want a sketchy roach motel .. as we would be arriving late and leaving early)
I am looking to basically, get up . .drive an hour at most and go straight to Animal Kingdom for the day.
What do most of you do for staying the night before your Disney Resort stay?
(Normally we stay in Georgia (3-4 hours) and arrive around noon and just go to Disney Springs, but this time I want to hit a park on the first day, because our Disney Springs day will be day 2 (when my sister's family arrives.
