Value Resort with Interior Hallways?

[jkl2000]

I saw photos in a TR where someone was staying in a Lion King suite at AoA, and there were interior hallways. I thought only deluxe resorts had interior hallways? Obviously not, just surprised. The suite looked really nice. Now I covet a value's hallways!

Only Art of Animation, all buildings except Little Mermaid.

It's just the Art of Animation since it was built recently from the skeleton of the old Pop Century buildings. Pop and All-stars are still motel style

Most of aoa has inside and pop and all stars are outside.

Granted, those suited hardly charge "value" rates.

AOA to me is not a value resort at all! But, I guess it's like BOG. Technically for lunch it's QS, but dinner is TS. So, all suites are just as expensive as a deluxe, but the LM rooms are value. Go figure!

It stunk paying the equivalent of a deluxe and only getting counter service on the free dining plan offer.

Are there any true Value-priced suites on property? (Some wiseguy will say the campgrounds, if you put two tents together!)

The suites at Art of Animation and All Star Music (both value resorts) are the cheapest on property. And most would agree that $300+ per night is not a "value". But the suites at any of the deluxe resorts are much, much more expensive.

The cabins at Fort Wilderness, while not a suite per say, are priced in the moderate category.

When we stayed at AoA, we split the cost of a suite with my mom who stayed with us. It was slightly more expensive than getting two Value rooms. But definitely worth it under those circumstances.

If the alternative is two room, I think the suites make sense. Short of that, they are grossly over-priced.

We did AOA Nemo suite this summer for exactly that reason- just more than 2 value rooms. The week we went rooms were 99 each and we paid 229 for a suite (Fl resident rate). Enjoyed the room and pool + we don't "dine" at our resort very often so QS worked for us. Will def consider another stay if not affording moderate.

My wife would not abide QS. Table Service is a must for her. So we upgraded. Which wasn't too big of a deal, but I still felt like for what we were paying it should have been included. Then again, if we had gotten two Value rooms, we would have had QS anyway.

If we went with Mom again, I'd definitely return to AoA. It was perfect for that arrangement. But if it's just the four of us, we would never shell out for the suite. I suspect if it's just us, we'll stay at a Mod next time.

As other posters have said the only value that has inside hallways is AoA and the only buildings that have them are the building in the nemo section, cars section and lion king section that are family suites. THE LM standard rooms have outside entrances just like the other value resorts.
