Being Preferred, you are going to be close to the Lobby, Food Court, Main Feature Pool, etc. Something to consider is that the Preferred Rooms are all in the Alligator Bayou Section and all buildings in Alligator Bayou are only 2 floors so there are no elevators. Some people with mobility issues, strollers, etc like to request ground floor. We like the corner rooms because they have a second window which when the drapes are opened lets in more natural light and also makes the room feel larger. It all depends on what you want/like in a room location.
