just got back!
We just returned from a trip to WDW and we stayed at the BW Inn. We had a great time! Our first room was very, very, very, very, very far from the elevators and it was very annoying, but when I requested a change, I was accommodated the next day with a room only 5 doors away from the elevator. My 7 year old loved the Keister Coaster and so did I. With the big deal ride being Toy Story Mania, it was great to be so close to DHS. We spent more time there than ever before by far. I agree that it would be better if there was a complete counter service option at BW, but we enjoyed the Bakery a lot. The Bellvue room, where they have pastries in the a.m. and drinks in the p.m, was a nice, quiet place, but there was a better selection at a better value at the Bakery. I also enjoyed the proximity to ESPN for watching a little bit of sports. Overall, we would stay at BW again, though probably in the villas. For a better selection of counter service options, take the boat across to Beach Club and visit the Marketplace.
Have a great trip.
