My apologies not including the star rating....it was a 4* I used the HOTWIRE link in your reply....booked for $82/night July 16-24 and it was/is indeed the Crowne Plaza! We are set for our trip! Thanks for your time and input! Below is the info I submitted for your review and what came under the Hot Rate tab...for a 4* July 16-24 Universal Orlando - I drive North area Hotel Original price 335 crossed out -- $82-83 80% recommended - Good FULL AMENITIES: Free Internet, Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Accessible for visually impaired, Accessible for hearing impaired, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking, Roll-in shower

We are going to purchase and probably today....have decided to go thru Hotwire. So, since we are ready to move forward...here are the two we are looking at... 1st Hotel July 16-24 Universal Orlando - I drive North area Hotel Original price 335 crossed out -- $82-83 80% recommended - Good FULL AMENITIES: Free Internet, Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Accessible for visually impaired, Accessible for hearing impaired, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking, Roll-in shower 2nd Hotel July 16-24 Disney maingate West Original price 115 - down to 36 75% recommended FULL AMENITIES: Free parking, Free breakfast, Free Internet, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Golf nearby Thanks for your time and help!

As I mentioned in a reply to my first post on the 4* Downtown Disney hotel.....we are still comparing prices trying to find that point where we find the best locale/amenities/niceness for the price. So, this is a comparison quest.... 3* Disney's Maingate West Original price of $115 crossed out....$36 (was $35 at one point)..again fluctuating between 35 - 36 75% recommended Dates -- July 16 - 24 for 2 adults FULL AMENITIES: Free parking, Free breakfast, Free Internet, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Golf nearby Any help is greatly appreciated.....as this place is about half of the place in my first post...even after figuring resort fees for this place. Just looking to compare the two...in case we need to adjust our budget once we receive the bonus check that is going to hopefully pay for this trip.

We were planning to stay at Wyndham Bonnet Creek...but I always try to check ALL options...including hotwire, priceline, etc. I previously did not know about this site and discovered it reading on the DISBoards for Disney planning. So, I decided to check it out yesterday. Not knowing and the fear is what usually keeps us from booking the "unpublished" hotels. BUT, $81-82 per night for a 4 star is a pretty good deal and we can stay for 8 or 9 nights for the same price as 7 at WBC. We are still planning and exploring prices...gathering all info possible. We are waiting for a bonus check to come in at the end of the month...if it is what we think it is going to be, then we will book something..probly the deal I originally posted about. But, if the bonus check is less, then we may have to adjust length of the trip or possibly cut it altogether. I will be sure to follow up no matter what we do and post here. If we don't go it will not be because of anything discovered here....as mentioned IF we go, then we will most likely book the above deal (because of the info learned here) if it is still available and we will be sure to use the links here. Hopefully this explains my purpose for being here and our intentions and what we hoped to gain for posting here....I was just hoping to get an idea of what hotel the posted criteria might be. I fully understand that there is no guarantee, but it gives me something to look at. Our intentions are in no way shape or form to mislead anyone here or take advantage of this site. Just looking to gain as much as possible. We are both teachers and don't have tons of money, so when we look to spend this much (like most everyone) we want the best bang for our buck. Thanks for your time and help!!

We are still undecided...hopefully this deal is still there if we decide to go with it. IF we book it, then I will defn use the links from this site and report back what we get. Thanks for the info.

Thoughts on what place this might be? Hopefully I have done this correctly and provided all info. Thanks! Shows original price $202 (crossed out) and at one point today showed "new" price of $80, then went to $81. Switched back and forth between $80 & $81. 95% Recommended! Amazing!
