DC to Orlando

[v]

I'm traveling with my husband and children (ages 7 and 18 mos) are driving to Orlando via minivan.

Our plan is to drive and stay in South of the Border overnight. Any recommendations on hotels in that area?

No offense, but South of the Border is a tourist trap. I was there a few years ago, and as the police say, "there's nothing to see here."

In any case, there's no shortage of decent chain motels in the area - depends on how much you want to pay. We ended up sleeping in Florence, SC.

South of Border's only attraction is that it is a vintage tourist trap/attraction. The nature of the place is what attracts folks. I know several of folks who like the cheesy quality and stay at the honeymoon suite (even though it is not their honeymoon). Laugh a little. Loosen up!
