So--I sat down tonight and made a compare list so I need help deciding.

the three hotels are caribbean beach, coronado springs, and port orleans.

Caribbean Beach:
-moderate
-By Epcot
-Pizza Delivery
-no wi-fi :( :(
-fridge
-no purchases delivered to hotel
-5 restaurants: 4 quick-service $14.99 and under, and 1 casual dining $15-$36.
-Standard view-$170-2 full beds

Coronado Springs:
-moderate
-by animal kingdom
-business hotel :( :(
-no wi-fi...again
-pizza delivery
-fridge
-no purchases delivered to hotel
-4 restaurants: 1 special $36-$60, 2 quick service $15-$36, and 1 outdoor lounge $15 and under
-Standard View-$175-2 queen beds

this is the one i'm most leaning towards!

Port Orleans
-moderate
-By Downtown Disney
-Pizza Delivery
-Fridge
-no wi-fi.......for the third time.....grrrr
-no purchases delivered to resort
-2 restaurants $14.99 and under
-Standard view-$170-2 full beds

So...HELP ME DECIDE!
 
Don't forget...Port Orleans is the only moderate that has boat service to Downtown Disney. That went in my pro column when I was choosing...and one of the reasons I chose POFQ. However, I've never stayed on-site...so this is my 1st time on Disney property...so I'm no expert. Didn't know they'd removed the package delivery until you posted...and checked the Disney website & see that it is no longer checked in that column. I wonder if that's a typo??? Or more HOPING that's a typo. Another thing to put on my list to ask when I call and make my actual ressies in March.
 
Have stayed at Caribbean, Riverside & French Quarter and my vote would be for the French Quarter. It's small & compact, so it's easy to get everywhere here. It shares its buses with POR, but ALWAYS picks up & drops off at POFQ first. You can use POR's pool, fishing hole, restaurants, etc. and it has a water shuttle to DTD. This is my FAVORITE moderate resort!!

Have stayed at the Riverside and found it too big for my taste.

My stay at CBR was awful. Tried checking out the same day I checked it. It is WAYYY too spread out for my taste, the service was awful, I had to walk across a dimly lit parking lot at night to get back to my room (which made me feel very uneasy). Just an all around bad stay. Won't go back there again.
 
OK...I called Disney. Package delivery from the theme parks to your home resort gift shop is still an aminity of ALL moderate resorts (it's still available for values as well even tho the website says it's not available for them either in 2010). So...you can put that back into your 'pro' column for all of the resorts you're looking at.
