I was wondering if anyone could tell me how much it would cost to get a shuttle or a bus to the downtown Disney area ? I'll be staying in that area at a hotel and didn't want to rent a car.

Check hotel 1st. Often cheap shuttles or provided. Uber and Lyft next choices.

Yes. Uber of Lyft are your best bet.

Depends on distance. You can Uber or Lyft too

If you stay at a Disney hotel they free if you stay in international Dr it 35 usd to Disney from international Dr hope this helps

Some have free shuttle bus

Ask your hotel if they offer transportation to Disney Springs. A lot of hotels do.
