Never stayed at Boardwalk before get me excited

[BeachMouse]

So we have never stayed at Boardwalk before. Going there in December for an Epcot centric trip and Staying on the hotel side. Always done Yacht and Beach but we were able to get a good deal at Boardwalk. I was very excited but read on some other boards the resort was run down, like thermostat in the room from the 1970’s etc. I was very excited to stay here as I know how so many people just love this resort but these things I read have me concerned.
Give me some good things please

I stayed there on the hotel side back in June and didn't find anything in the room to be run down at all. Since the hotel was built new in the mid 90's it's hard to see how they would have thermostats from the 70's.

BW is alive and full of energy. Adults have Flying Fish, Abracadabar, Jelly Rolls, etc. Fun evening atmosphere. Kids at heart have bike and boat rentals, B&C across the way, and joyride access to the Skyliner. 10 minute walk for EP/HS park open/close. A ton of food options between BW, BC, YC, S&D, International Gateway and even Riviera doesn’t take too long. The pool and pool bar are decent and usually don’t get as crowded like Poly and BC/YC. The best part? Dumbo on the pull down sleeper

One of my old trip reports might help.

Trip Report - Completed: SUCCESS!! I did NOT get locked out of our room naked again! Boardwalk Villas June 2015

Hey all! Well, I am back. Sigh. Yep, I'm playing a good game of "last week at this time". Last week at this time, I was on the veranda of the California Grill watching Wishes. (It is 10:11 as I type this) Tonight, I am sitting in my sweltering 90+ degree apartment in NYC procrastinating...

LOL thanks! I was just quoting what some vlogger said doing a review. Guess it serves me right for listening to a vlogger

Youre in the happiest place on earth!! You can leave all your worries and stress at home. Have a Mickey Mouse cookie. Just take a deep breath and enjoy whats before you. Dont let fears of what the people on the board might say. You will have a blast.

BoardWalk quiet pool is one of, if not the most, secluded tucked away pools on property. Love it back there. Enjoy your trip.

It’s a beautiful resort that’s themed very well. The restaurants and night clubs are all right there and there’s a great store plus the walk to Epcot is extremely convenient. You can also take the boat over as it goes straight to Epcot. DHS has a boat too and the skyliner is close by the Epcot boat dock.

I like the Boardwalk. I didn't think that the rooms were run down at all. We stayed there a few months ago.
