Deciding on Moderate for Dance Team

[GrowUp2BaPrincess]

Help appreciated.

I've read the information threads for POR, POFQ, CBR, and CSR. We've had a good experience at POFQ in the past, but we are taking twice as many dancers and family to WDW this Spring, so we were looking at CBR as our hotel this stay. My concern is 7 bus stops. It seems like a great location, well laid out, but can someone give me opinion on the bus service. Any why or why nots in staying at any of the moderates that I should consider? The price is better at CBR, so that's attractive for many of our families. I appreciate all opinions. Thanks in advance!

Why not a value? 1 bus stop. Cheaper.

Honestly, because queen beds vs doubles. Parents have requested that.

I stayed at CSR last year in the Cabanas it's not too far to el centro, the pool, and a bus stop. Buses were real frequent. Don't know anything about CBR. Good luck.

I would stay with POR; by far the superior food court. POFQ LOVELY resort (love it!) but often doesn't have rooms/discounts and the food court is being refurbed. CBR is awesome resort but I find the food court very lacking when compared to others. CSR is gorgeous but some of the rooms are almost 1/2 mile from main building, making refillable mugs downright laughable. Yeah, yeah I know there is an internal bus... The food court runs differently and while tasty, it takes longer to be served than the other moderates.

Mugs can be refilled at dig site pool at CSR.

I would just look at which hotel has the best discount at the time. With so many people involved I am sure there will be split votes as far as most appealing theme, and they all have comparable amenities. The one thing everyone would agree on is the best deal.

If it's the best price for the group, go with it. Am sure they will love it.

Make sure they don't give you Pirate rooms, aside from being far from everything, they are full beds.

We stayed at CBR pre-refurb (right before it actually) and we loved it. We found the buses to be frequent. The pool is awesome and we really liked the food court. As a dance mom - I think this would be a great choice, especially if it is cheaper.
