Marathon Weekend 2019

Underrated: I think both Coronado and Grand Floridian are underrated. Both tend to get the “it’s nice but not for me” type of review. I never wanted to stay at either but ended up loving both. Now, the grand Floridian is probably my favorite (along with port orleans riverside), but I can’t afford to stay therr. i have a feeling it was a one and done sort of thing-A few years ago, I got a room there for less than half of the current rate. Anyway, I just like the grounds and a lot of the tiny touches you find there. I also find that the staff tends to be slightly friendlier and will go out of their way a bit more. All the hotels, even the “value”resorts, are obscenely priced. For marathon weekend I ended up gettting a room at Pop Century and at the time it was only forty to fifty dollars a night less than the “moderates.”

Maybe it’s because I’m getting older, but I really agree with you on Grand Floridian. Before, it was never somewhere I’d stay. But the girls and I hung out there last night for quite a bit and we’re planning to mix it up for our next girl’s trip and stay at GFla for a night or two along with YC/BC.
 
Ugh you guys are killing me with the Country Bears...

Unfortunately, those calling it overrated give it more credit than myself. I’ve never been in and never will. Animatronic bears performing a grand ole opry/hee-haw/I don’t know what-style county music comedy review sounds like one of the nine circles.
 

My blood pressure is rising with a few of these, but I will keep my feelings down deep.

Overrated: Very Merry Christmas Party
Overrated: Enchanted Tales with Belle
Overrated: the Purple Wall
Overrated: Food and Wine Festival
Overrated: Zebra Domes

It’s my favorite show at MK and is hilarious. It’s also very nostalgic for me since my grandpas favorite character is Big Al. I actually think it’s under rated. General Disney fans don’t even know what it is.

I have no doubt that it is very good at being what it is and I'm glad people enjoy it. There is a 0% chance I would enjoy it, so I'll leave it for the people that can.
 
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.



WHAT. For someone who loves AK, I'm shocked you haven't made the journey to AKL for the most holiest of desserts. They sell them to-go at the Mara.
I’ve been to AKL just never had a zebra dome.
