We did not try any of the shuttle busses. We had no

well as several other hotels. |

Restaurant/Lounge Review:
|
John T's Sports Bar: An open bar area
in the lobby. We never stopped in for a drink, but the place seemed
to be constantly full with convention-goers.
Benihana: A fun place for good food and entertainment
at the table. Our 4 year old had a great time, and we had a nice steak
and shrimp dinner. (Side note--we have taken her to other Japanese
steak houses, and they are one of the best places to take a small
child and still get a good meal!)
Finn's Grill: Good food with very attentive service.
It was never crowded while we were there. One night they offered an
all-you-can-eat seafood buffet, although we didn't try it.
Chatham House: Our least favorite restaurant. Maybe
it was because we were there on our last night at WDW, but the food
was lacking.
The Terrace: Didn't try it.
Rum Largo Pool Side Cafe: Didn't try it.
Old Fashioned Soda Shoppe: Didn't try it, but looked
in the window. The operating hours are limited, and I never saw anyone
there. It is next to the arcade and babysitting service room.
Mugs Coffee: Didn't try it.
Mainstreet Market: We stopped here our first night
for a sandwich. It is sort of a mini grocery store, with counter service
sandwiches and desserts. This is a good place to buy soda and chips
for the road. |

Didn't try it. They have a large pool and a small children's
