Ok, I just got back and I have to say I was disappointed. If I had been anywhere other than Disney World I might have been happy, but not for a Disney trip. Disclaimer this was my first trip as an Adult and I can probably blame my agent more than anything else, but here are my complaints. In planning all I heard was staying on property made you feel engulfed by Disney, not once did I feel like this at the Contemporary. I felt like I was at a Hilton attached to a convention center. When booking we told our agent we wanted something easily accessible from the parks as we had a member of our party who has difficulties walking. While close to MK it was further out from the other three parks and walking to the lobby from the Garden Wing felt longer than walking from the lobby to MK. The bathrooms while they looked nice were impractical as there was no counter space just two oversized sinks that made hand washing and teeth brushing for my 5 year old impossible without being lifted up. The water coming from the sinks and showers had a fish smell as if it was being pumped directly from Bay Lake. The one positive thing I can say is the staff was exceptional. The maids and bellmen were the most friendly, helpful people I encountered my entire trip. With my disappointment I looked at other hotels while there for my next trip and I can say almost all looked more appealing than Contemporary. Even with the hotel disappointment we had a fantastic time!
The APs just burn a hole right through my pocket/wallet. They were the best/worst thing I've ever purchased at Disney.
