The only bed is the sofa pull out or murphy drop down?

Found a bunch of random images from a google search. They all looked the same.

edit:

Looks like the change is pulldown bed instead of the love seat?

Last week of July, All Stars are under $200 rack rate. That's pretty good.

If you go in the last week of June with a discount, you're at $151 or $190 at Pop.

Pretty low cost if you ask me. For a Family of 4.

Yeah, low cost compared to the other WDW options lol

Same price offsite can get you a nicer hotel.

Which ones? Univeral is about $10 cheaper or so in those time frames. Others have better rates but additional fees that make them comparable.

Most of the major brands like Hyatt, Hilton or Marriot are the same or more.

Yes, but you are offsite. That's the point. People act like on-property hotels should be priced the same as off-property hotels and only want to compare the hotel itself. "Well, you can get the same room 2 miles down the road for 20% less." But the fact is, being on-site is a major perk that those other hotels don't have. Paying $151 a night for a hotel that is on Walt Disney World property is most definitely low cost.

Why is this thread about hotel room prices?

  • Speculation that large portion of domestic spending will be on resort improvements and more DVC expansion
  • Cost comparison of Disney resort prices vs Universal (side discussion of benefits gained/lost/never given)
  • Cost comparison of Disney resorts from season to season, vs Universal vs off-site hotels
  • And here we are!

Where is this chart?

He might be referring to this:

Though, this doesn't really disprove concerns that much of it could go to DVC and resort improvements. Luckily, $30 Billion is a lot of money. Disney could add a new DVC every year of the ten year plan, and still have plenty of money for parks investment.

It also provides breathing room for a 2nd park at Shanghai Disney Resort. Because their government partners are coughing up roughly 60% of the money, Disney could devote $3-4 Billion to Shanghai, and get a fantastic second gate, new resorts, and additions to the first park.

The people that should be happiest with this chart are Disney Cruise Line fans. One of the tricky things about this capital-allocation plan is when exactly it starts counting. Presumably, delivery fees for the three cruise ships already under construction will be counted towards the $12 Billion. That eats up some of the cash. Disney might also allocate money to build more physical infrastructure (cruise terminals, private islands, piers). But I think we could see 3-4 additional ships added by the end of the period. That would push DCL fleets to 11-12. That's just a speculative guess though.
