I have not done it lately - but driving thru DFW I found to be "less brain damage" to take I35W thru Fort Worth.

We stayed one night at Yogi Bear's Jellystone south of Fort Worth. Nice but too expensive for an overnight.

Northlake is fine if they have any slots. We stayed there for a couple of months extended stay.

In my opinion - the nicest in DFW is The Vineyards in Grapevine. It looks like it would be out of your way - but it is only a couple of miles off the freeway (114) and it is easy to get to from I35 East or West. We stayed there for several months a few years back and loved it.

A stay at Northlake or The Vineyards would get you thru the DFW traffic mess ready to wake up and go.
