I know these kinds of questions are very subjective but looking for some honest "What Would You Do" feedback. I currently have a reservation for a BWI CL Deluxe Room for early April. I am debating switching to a BC CL Standard View Room (only room type that's available at BC). It's a 7 night stay with me, DW, DS6 and DD2.
We are "resort people" who tend to spend a decent chunk of time at the resort, pools, lounge, etc. I get the benefits of Stormalong Bay and all that, but looking for comments on the overall experience between the two.... the resorts, the lounges, those specific room types, room location relative to the lounge, etc.
I have limited experience at the Epcot resorts and am having trouble wrapping my head around the overall best choice for our style, ages, 7 nights, etc. We love places like Poly, GF, and CR because they are "easy" resorts (especially with a little one) so looking to find that same feeling at one of these.
Any thoughts or feedback is appreciated.

I would keep the BWI reservation. I was hesitant with our stay there with our DS (7 & 3). We had just done Poly CL and RPC and love them both. We tend to do rope drop and pool in the PM and do a lot of resort/lounge time. I think your family travels similarly to ours from reading your posts. The pools were both terrific- the clown wasn't as creepy as I anticipated- and the boys had a blast at the pool. The lounge, as you know, is amazing- the food is actually more like heavy appetizers- so most definitely enough for a light dinner. The boardwalk itself is enough for the kids to do- the entertainment was fun, the surrey bike was a hit, and the atmosphere was like GF light, a little more intimate. Additionally, the bathroom and room plan was very nice for the family (we were there for 7 nights). The shower/toilet is separate from the sinks (dual) and the balcony was quite roomy. This was great for a family of 4 when getting ready.
