We had a great time at CSR from 5/30 to 6/7. It was my DH, Me and DDs 2 and 5. We were upgraded upon arrival to a pool view room as it was ready and we arrived at about 9:00 AM. We were able to put our luggage in our room and go right to MK. The girls got Disney Kids Magazines upon arrival and some stickers too.
We loved the Dig Site and both of my girls played on the water slide as well as the play ground. We also enjoyed lunch at the Pepper Market. We were in room 4327 of Casita 4 and were very close to the quiet pool and the laundry room. My only complaint is that the Quiet Pool was not quiet several nights that we were there, children were loudly playing in the pool until 11:30PM. It didn't seem to bother my DDs though as they were so tired from the parks. Mouse keeping placed my girls pjs and dolls on the bed each day and made a bunny out of the pjs one day. We received 3 towel animals, a dog, koala and turkey, that Mr. Maxi from housekeeping delivered personally to my DDs because they told him they liked the ones in the windows on the first floor. We had a great experience and will come back again.
On a side note, to save money, I had booked reservations for 5/29 and 6/7 at a hotel in Kissimee for $30 a night. The first night we did stay there, but were not impressed. Since we had been driving all day, I just washed the girls at the sink and put them to bed. The tub was very mildewy, so we didn't bathe. When we went back for the last night, we couldn't even stay there. The room was dirty and the tub was falling apart. We got a refund and drove to Daytona Beach to spend the night.
Next time, I'll save money by spending the first and last night at a Value Resort. At least we'll knoe it's Disney and will be clean.

I'd never heard of the resorts doing this. I think it's a great idea.
