Stay and play value resorts.
Not everyone stays at the Disney premium resorts... they can be pricey... well, they are pricey. The value resorts offer less pricey options. More sooted to families on a budget. The value resorts are fun, with different themes to please everyone. There's the All Star resorts, Music, Movies, & Sports... Pop Century, Art of Animation, and the Caribbean Beach resort. All offer down to earth pricing and have their own unique flavor.... special in their own way. The Caribbean Beach is perhaps a cut above (moderate priced resort) in atmosphere. Restaurants are on the value side of pricing. All offer bus transportation to the parks. Generally, by observation, these resorts also have value transportation in that fewer buses run these resort routes and have longer turn around and wait times on more crowded buses. Most times with standing room only packed front to back. All the resorts have central bus boarding at the main entrance which depending on your room location can be a bit of a walk. Caribbean beach has several bus stops around the loop providing easier access, but again long wait times. If the bus is already filled when it gets to your stop on the loop... wave goodbye... You'll be waiting for the next bus... if its not already filled.
So... It is what it is. Small thrills value... nice, but not over the top. Having the ability to pay more is a definite advantage.
