Was at CSR for a National Chess Championship with my DS 7 (he did awesome btw)
We got one of the brand new rooms in Cabanas 9b. Definitely going to be one of the new club rooms with wooden sliding doors to the sink area, granite counters, flat screen TV. High end bedding... I was in heaven!
Convention facilities were excellent for well over 1200 kids and their parents. Never felt too crowded. I will say cell reception was spotty, especially if you have a wireless card. Made it difficult to follow some of the matches online.
Kids swam in the heated pool even though temps were low.
Was not impressed with the Pepper Market. My son and I shared a waffle, cup of strawberries and a juice, $22.
The Rix cafe the next AM had veggie quiche and an egg and cheese sammie for much more reasonable amount. You can just grab it and go.
Loved this resort and the tournie will be back there in 2010. So will we!
