My parents used to have a time share at the Boardwalk, so I know that area quite well. This time around we're staying at Coronado Springs, which I've never done. We chose it since it's a nice resort, with food available.

I could never afford that one - give me the budget friendly Disney places - haha - but I bet its worth the money - looks luxurious.<br />& that's good to know you cant get to Epcot on race day, which is weird, isn't it - I mean, I'm sure some people use that resort since its close.

Luckily I am not super picky -- of course I love a lovely hotel, but I have also stayed in some real dives because of the proximity to the start. And for me, a mini fridge is a must, and I really want a microwave, too.<br /><br />And then again it's often about Mr. Judy's points, which helps keep the cost of the racecation down. :)Judy @ Chocolaterunsjudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14096124660145481881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930457134828005115.post-53559980133107162262018-11-09T07:01:28.396-05:002018-11-09T07:01:28.396-05:00I think a convenient location would be important, ...I think a convenient location would be important, although for the Denver race no race hotels were really convenient to the start/finish, and all were convenient to the downtown shopping/dining area.
