Orlando Accomodation

[Stu]

I'd like to make a members database of where you have stayed in Orlando.
Hopefully this will enable members to ask questions or seek advice etc, for a hotel, resort or villa that they are planning to stay at.


For Us, we have only ever stayed at
All Star Movies

we have stayed at:.
                          gateway international drive in 1992, no longer there, we went back to have a look at it in 1998 and its now a four lane roadway......

                           in 1998 we stayed at the Howard Johnson at the top end (furthest away from Disney), and for this November we are staying at the Four Points by sheraton Lakeside after changing from the Daysinn Maingate west which we had been advised against by several different people.
