I really wish that the WDW site would have gone into more detail about parties of 5 having no other option than Alligator Bayou. The pictures of the "garden view" room that we thought we were getting when we made the reservation were quite nice. Later, as I was reading about the resort in more detail, I saw that we would be staying in AB. It was very disappointing. The rustic decor is not appealing whatsoever. To me, it looks cheap and uninviting. I knew we weren't getting a royal room but what we're getting doesn't look a thing like what was featured on the website. We've decided to stick it out and make the best of it but I wish there had been more information and pictures available on the website. (I wish I had known that I needed to do more research beforehand!) We are hoping to be pleasantly surprised. Is AB nicer than it looks?
