WDW area hotel review - taxis limited on-site

[wishful]

Sometime in the last month I read a WDW hotel review somewhere about a hotel that didn't allow you to call for a cab - you could only catch the "contracted" cabs out front. I think this also affected how you arranged for transportation to/from the airport if you needed it. I can't find the review now.

I wanted to find out the name of this hotel so I could tell a friend what bidding zone/star level the hotel is.

The review writer mentioned things like the hotel was across the street from a drugstore and s/he had to buy something (medicine?) but the way the grounds were laid out it was too far to walk at the time and the highway would be hard to cross, so she had to catch a cab and it was $14 each way - possibly there was a $10 mininum per cab ride also?

The description reminded me of the hotel on the 192, SE of WDW, that is set back from the highway, the Radisson(?), but I never read anything like that about that hotel before...

Sound familiar to anyone?

Found out the hotel was the JW Marriott in Orlando, it is not a known Priceline hotel, so we don't have to worry :)

I did see a winning bid for the JW Marriott on 'that other board'

[thereuare]

BetterBidding too has wins at some JW Marriotts... but none for the JW Marriott Orlando, 4040 Central Florida Pkwy Orlando, FL 32837.

In looking at a map of this hotel's location, it doesn't even appear to be included in any of Pricelne's zones.
