We were treated superbly at S & D on 3 (?4) different trips.
We ended up at different locations the last 3 trips - for some reason we booked POFQ one trip & I don't even know why. But we loved it there.
Then I won ESPN the Weekend trip & we were at Beach Club. I love the location but would never pay out of pocket to stay there.
Also won a trip that had us at Gaylord Palms (very familiar with Gaylord due to conferences), but we had a rental car so it was fine - other than having to pay for parking & be 4 miles from the park entry LOL.
This trip is back to Disney property for the simple reason I have $1000 in Disney gift cards from rewards programs. Otherwise, where would my first choice be? Right back to the S/D!!!!
Big disadvantage - not being able to room charge

It's a bit too easy to let the room charging get away from you!
I believe if you sign up for their monthly recipe club, you will also receive room discount offers through there.
