Are their any advantaged iyho to staying offsite other than the cost?
I was someone who ALWAYS stayed off site, but recently have converted to an on-site guy.
1.) the only advantage is savings, and this is MHO. You save on the cost of lodging, which can be a substantial amounts but to me the difference is worth the cash. Mainly, because given the AAA rate plus the constant 30% off deluxe rates coupons they are shelling out it makes up the gap, and while there is still a savings gap it becomes smaller.
Disadvantages:
1.) paying to park (since I am not an AP holder)
2.) at the end of the day, its Florida... no offense to Floridians but I am from New England and the atmosphere of the South plus the lack of food options makes the week offsite a little harder for me.
3.) the rooms are bigger, but honestly.... I sleep there. I am an early riser / late coming home type of guy and thats my style when I am not on vaca. nevermind when MK is open 8AM to 3AM.
