Hi,
I'm thinking of booking a week long trip to WDW this coming spring. We've never tried Universal but my oldest is 11 and is a big Harry Potter fan, so we want to do a couple of days at Universal.
What is the best strategy? Do we stay at a WDW resort the entire stay and commute to Universal for a couple of days? Do we move to a Universal resort for the last 2 days to reap the benefits of the universal unlimited pass and get extra time at the parks?
My general impression is that the quality of accommodations and food at Universal is below that of WDW. So I worry we'd be disappointed to finish the trip if it was a serious downgrade from our WDW hotel (we'd likely be at a 2br suite at either Riviera or Bay Lake, and stay at the highest level of hotel at Universal for similar style room). Also the cost of similar rooms at the highest level universal resort seems to be way more than Disney for some reason.
Any advice appreciated. Thanks in advance.
