The sign says that they come every 30 minutes. Here’s the bad news about the shuttles, though. Since it’s considered a partner resort, you also get Disney FastPass+ service, which lets you reserve FastPasses 60 days in advance instead of the 30 everyone else gets, Extra Magic Hours and free shuttles to the parks. The Pick Up is a small grab and go store with a long line for coffee in the morning. The restaurant near the lobby, the American Kitchen Bar & Grill, was reasonably priced (for Orlando), not very crowded, and had great bar food.

It took us 12 minutes to walk from our lobby to Disney Springs, and since you can get a bus from there to pretty much anywhere, you have free transportation to any of the properties. Here’s the good thing: the location is excellent. (I mean, nothing down there is going to be cheap, but we were willing to sacrifice some of the resort experience for the something more affordable.) When we booked our flight, the airline offered discount bundles for various resorts on Hotel Plaza Blvd., and we chose the B Resort based on the pictures and watching a few YouTube reviews. My wife and I recently took a trip to the Walt Disney World area, and since we were going without kids, we wanted a hotel that was close to the action but not super expensive.
