Any room can be a noisy one if your neighbors are noisy. Any hotel can have "off days" with housekeeping. Any bus system can have days when buses are full and/or late.
BC is our favourite WDW resort. We've stayed at most of the others at some point over the last 20+ years, and keep coining back to BC. We currently have stays booked for May, October and December...and it's not because BC was cheapest. We love the location, the theme and the pool. We've never had a huge problem with cast members or mousekeeping. We've never had a huge problem with noisy neighbors, and we have had some really noisy neighbors at some of the other hotels, but maybe we've just been lucky.
Is it the Four Seasons or the Plaza NYC? Nope, even though the bill would lead you to believe that, especially during peak times. It's a good Disney hotel, but it's not five star luxury and you shouldn't expect that even if the price range is the same.
Is it perfect? Nope, but it's nowhere as bad as some of the reviews would lead you to believe. I sometimes wonder if those reviewers were staying at the same hotel as I was, because I didn't notice any of the things they did. Our only "wish-it-was-better" is the quick service offerings, since they're a little limited...but we just head over to Epcot when we're hungry and that solves that.
But, if you go into your stay expecting problems and actively looking for them, you'll find them...and you won't notice any of the good things. Personally, my stay isn't ruined if my garbage doesn't get emptied one day or I find a scuff on the baseboard near the closet or a q-tip under the bed. However, I don't go looking under the bed to see what mousekeeping might have missed, either.
Then again, you're here on the YC/BC thread, where all us YC/BC junkies and addicts hang out. We're all more than a bit biased.
