DW and I decided that without the AP discounts, it makes no sense for us to stay on property when the rates at the Downtown Disney Resorts are so low. In other words, if we cannot get a good price to stay where we really want to stay (Poly, BW, OKW), then why pay Disney rates to stay at a place we're only 1/2 interested in... We're going to be spending a few nights at WDW in mid-November, after our cruise and the Swan and Dolphin rates for AP holders are not valid the days we'll be there .
Because of this decision, we're considering the DD resorts. The problem is, we've never really paid them much attention or read any reviews, so, my question to y'all is, what's good and what's bad? Are there some that are too noisy? Too close to DD? Some where the rooms and/or staff are especially nice? What about transportation? Do they run their own busses of do they just point you to one of the DD bus stops? We're not much into pools, so that's not very important to us, but we do like to hang around the resort, so a nice setting/decor is a definite bonus.
Hopefully, Disney will release room only rates for AP holders shortly, but we're getting quite anxious about this and need to book our room soon.
Thanks!
