Accommodations Review:

This was a last minute trip and we didn't want to spend a lot of money. We usually stay at the Deluxe resorts. We have stayed at the YC, BC, BW and the GF. We were pleasantly surprised at how much we enjoyed DL. The rooms were large enough and very clean. I did miss a little bit sitting on a veranda, but other than that we enjoyed it a lot.

Why Did you Select This Resort for your Stay?

This was a last minute trip and we didn't want to spend a lot of money.

Room # and Location Description:

Magnolia Bend, Can't remember room number

Room Location Pros & Cons:

We were on the top floor at the end of the hallway and it was very quiet. It was a short walk to the Food Court area and an even shorter walk to the quiet pool. The bus stop was only a 2 minute walk.

Check-In / Check-Out Comments:

Very quick; no problems.

WDW Transportation Comments:

We rent a car and usually drive to the parks.

Restaurant / Lounge Review:

The food court area was great. I thought the prices reasonable and got our money's worth with the refillable mugs.

Pool Description / Comments:

Nice size pool, although there was some painting going on and was surprised we had to bring our own towels.

What Suggestions Would you Give Anyone that is Considering This Resort?

Stay here! It was beautiful and clean. If you've stayed at Deluxe resorts try this. I enjoyed parking close to the room and not having a mile walk or having to tip valets like at the Beach Club. I did miss not having a balcony, but the savings outweighed it.
