I stayed at Saratoga Springs resort in December of last year. We stayed in a studio room near the carriage house. I thought the resort was wonderful. I lot of owners that I met felt that the resort was too large and spread out.
The size really didn't bother me. I thought it was nice and quiet, which may have been due to it's size. Check-in was somewhat slow, but all of the CM's were very nice - even gave my kids a gift on two separate occasions. Once during check in - they got some sort of Disney magazine and when we were on our way to breakfast at Artist Pallete they got a little pouch filled with SMALL Knick Knacks a candy cane, ornament, stickers ... they were thrilled.
My only complaint is that they don't have a table service restaurant.
I thought I'd be bothered by the fact that they were out of the way, being a downtown Disney resort; but it really took no time at all to get to the parks.
