Best Western Lakeside

[luvkatiebug]

I take a school group to WDW every other Mardi Gras, and until this year, we have always stayed on property (at an All Star). Well, for the first time, they were all booked! We are looking at a few off site hotels now, and I was wondering if anyone had experience with this Best Western? I think it used to be a LaQuinta, but it looks pretty nice, and the group coordinator was very helpful and knowledgeable. It doesn't have to be fancy, just clean and with enough eating options for my students.

Any thoughts?
Thanks

We stayed there 2 years ago, and it actually wasn't that bad. If you are taking a computer make sure you ask for a room with internet connections. Only certain buildings have the connection. We enjoyed the pools, and the other little extras that it had. It was not a bad drive to the parks, but give yourself plenty of time just incase you have a deadline for something. The traffic can be pretty bad. It is an older hotel, but they did have bus service to the parks if I am remembering correctly. Hope that helps.

My Mom Stayed At Bw Lake Side
The Price Was Super Inexpensive...
My Parents Said It Wasnt Bad At All.
The Rooms Were Clean-
They Ate While Sitting Outside On The Lake. It Was A Place To Lay Your Head And It Was Clean . The Food Wasnt Bad-
Mom Said Pop In 100x Better- But In A Pinch Bw Lakeside Would Be Fine!
