Been to disney at least once a year for about 20 years now. Poly is my wife's favorite. We've stayed at the Poly at least 5-6 times. It's the resort we stay at most often if paying cash. (disclaimer - We own DVC). A couple of those times have been concierge. Oh and perhaps i should have led with we stayed at the poly for two weeks for our honeymoon.
I can sum this up with one question: What/where is sunset pointe?
I literally don't know.
So not sure this will matter all that much to the general public. Sounds like the most serious poly fans will be offended though, but i'm not sure how many of those there are. And someone posted above i'm not sure that alone will be a deal breaker for those folks.
If it's the bump in front of everything seems the concierge rooms would have he biggest gripe since i think only those have real water/castle views? I wonder if those folks are more apt to go DVC now a days anyway then they were in years past?
Word! Poly is my favorite resort - been staying there since I was a little girl in the 80s. The reason we love it is location location location! The ease of taking the monorail to both MK and Epcot. And the fun theme. The view, actually, has never been part of the equation for us. But I understand why others who love the view would be upset.
