I'm surprised they don't paint giant mouse ears at the bottom of the grotto and lap pools, and maybe add mouse ear curtains so everyone would just chill about this topic. But then, I guess they could charge GF prices or even more.
I'M KIDDING!!!
I have no real dog in the fight here. I just know that Swolphin is all around awesome for what I want: Kimonos, the pools, the beds, and the proximity to DHS/EP, and the price. The Costco pkg deal helps, and I don't really have to worry about booking early.
And oh, yeah, Ample Hills at my backdoor? SOLD!!!!!
I am so glad I've chosen Swolphin over the "value" motels, and the moderates that are close to nothing, but priced similarly. The time involved for travel really adds up to a measurable price, imo, especially if your trip involves a lot of time for Hollyweird and EP.
I'd just suggest to anyone to research what THEY want in a resort if they will be going to DW. I think Swolphin is a very nice balance of high level amenities for the price. I get plenty enough Disney "feels," when I'm there. The better food, pools, proximity, beds, and pricing make me feel even better. I don't give a balls if there are ppl in business attire milling about. I'm having way too much fun with the fam, and guess what? I bet the ppl there for conferences wish they were in our shoes! Granted, I've never been there during a big conference, but that could happen at any of the nicer resorts, as well. On the plus side of it being known as a convention hotel, when it's quiet? It is QUIET!!!! We've mostly had the entire pool complex to ourselves, and it is glorious!
