The POP rooms are what they are and are very well done, Ikea styling for lack of a better description FITS there, Have not been to Coronado in a VERY long time. Cisco convention in Orlando last visit to Coronado but the rooms were charming with a meso-american theme which I enjoyed. Even the pictures of the 'new' coronado rooms make me sad. The whole point of Disney resorts for us has been being transported to other places,
But now Disney is making 'The bubble' meaningless A stay in a sterile room with no identifiable theming, plus the need to keep your nose stuck in phone (as the slack messages and emails pour in - hey I know you are on vacation but we've got a problem at ACME and hey can you handle it - thanks enjoy your vaca.
Before the MDE disaster phones got turned off and locked in the safe till checkout. And you ENJOYED your week or two of checking out from reality and into Disney. This is one of the prime drivers of us no longer visiting, Because the moment the phone comes ON the work related stuff flows in and in a modern tech company 'No I'm on vacation' has no meaning which is why so many tech people vacation in distant and exotic places not so much to show off on instagram/facebook but to get out of range of cell coverage.
This all makes perfect sense and I can't really disagree with any of it ...
