First, I'm a little confused by the "preferred rooms" category at CSR. Can someone point me to information about where they are? I'm thinking that booking a preferred room is the best way to make sure you're not too far away from El Centro.
However, if you've booked a preferred room and you ask at check-in if a non-preferred room in a location you are happy with is available, and it is, can you "downgrade" at that time and save some money? I'd hate to just make a request for a location without spending the money for a preferred room and end up in the back of beyond (because I know requests are not guaranteed), but at the same time I'd hate to spend a couple of hundred dollars for a room in a particular spot and have essentially the room next door available without the premium.
Also, how far in advance can you book a room at Disney?
Thanks for the help.
