Can someone explain these diff. room types?

[Freiden8]

GF:
Outer Lodge, Standard Room, Club Level
Standard Room, Club Level

CR:
Standard Room Atrium, Club Level
Standard Room OR King Standard Room, Club Level

From allearsnet about CR..
"The 12th floor Atrium Club Concierge and the 14th floor Tower Club Concierge offer the same services and food items. At one time there was a difference between the two, but no longer. There is a nightly turndown service, and they leave a little chocolate Mickey (solid chocolate) on your pillow every night. The concierge is available from 7am to 10pm to make dining reservations, plan outings, answer questions, everything "

So then why are they different prices???

The outer lodge it just that, a outer lodge room. The other room is in the main building (I am assuming this is GF).

At CR the price difference is dependant on what floor you are on.

Here is a better explanation of the Atrium Club and Tower Club floors at the Contemporary that I wrote myself and was edited a bit by triplefigs.

On the 12th Floor Concierge, the Atrium Club, both the MK View and Bay Lake View are by request only and cannot be guaranteed. If the MK View is your top priority, you may be better off booking a standard MK View room in the Tower.

With the Tower Club there are a total of 16 rooms, 5 standard rooms and 11 suites: 1 & 2 Bedroom Suites, a Vice Presidential Suite and a Presidential Suite. With the standard rooms, there is no guarantee of a Magic Kingdom or Bay Lake View. However with the Suites , you will be booked into a particular room which will indicate Magic Kingdom or Bay Lake. You will be guaranteed to have that specific room view. There are 4 Standard Magic Kingdom view rooms and 1 standard Bay Lake View room on the 14th floor.

The lounge on the 12th floor is bigger with more seating then the 14th floor concierge lounge. They converted 3 standard rooms into the 12th floor lounge, so there are 3 balconies available on the MK side for all Concierge guests to watch the fireworks. The lounge on the 14th floor also offers seating outside on the balcony, which is something that is not offered on the 12th floor lounge.

Finally both floors serve the exact same foods for breakfast, afternoon snacks, 5:00 PM hors d'oeuvres and 8:00 PM deserts & cordials. The 12th floor Atrium Club is less expensive then the 14th floor Tower Club, even though on both floors offer the exact same service. The 14th floor is more expensive because fewer number of total rooms and Suites.

Outer Lodge, Standard Room, Club Level

These are club level rooms located in the Sugar Loaf building. The food service and amenities are basically the same, however room view choices are limited to garden or marina. The lounge inside Sugar Loaf is on the small side and doesn't offer any type of view.

Standard Room, Club Level

This is a club level room found inside the main building. Also referred to as the Royal Palm Club. Room view choices include castle, garden or beach. The lounge is much bigger and offers views of the grounds. It's also open and looks down over the main lobby. You're paying more for the ambiance, plus you're closer to the monorail and bus stop.

I forgot to mention the GF frequently asked questions thread, http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1811276 . There's lots of photos here, if you'd like to try and compare the two club levels offered at the GF. Sometimes seeing the pictures helps me out alot.
