outside the buildings are a little bright for my taste but the rooms were fine, kind of like a holiday inn with Mickey soap and bedspreads! we felt they were plenty large enough for a family of 4 as we 2 had 3 suitcases and a garmet bag, toiletry bag, small cooler, 2 "junk" bags, camera bags, purse, groceries( uhhh, never claimed I pack "light") and a myriad of gifts( shot the "souvie budget") and still had plenty of room. nice sink area but could have been a tad bigger( we moved the ice bucket which gave us enough room) safe big enough to fit a extra slr camera lens, wallets, papers, money ect ( maybe 5"deep and 1 1/2feet tall, 1 + ft wide), iron with nice long cord and board, nice tv (but always tuned to the annoying WDW tour girl when it came on ).
the large flower pool was cute with sprinkling flowers and the pop fountain area always had kids soaking their shoes and clothes in it so they must have liked it.
food court was good and roomy, it seemed like there are more aisles and less areas of tables that are more than a few tables deep so it is easier to get around in than say Pepper market. the food was good and we though pretty reasonable, maybe $1-2 more for a burger meal than Mac Ds.
all in all a nice place we won't stay at again simply cause we like a quieter woodsy/garden atmosphere like Por or the wilderness areas.( since we are old codgers, might as well admit it) we thought this was perfect for families on a budget since it was nice and would appeal to kids for sure but not so kiddish the parents would feel left out.
the major problem imo was they seem not to have enough buses for PC as it seemed most nights at DTD or the parks many more buses for the other resorts came than for PC. we started joking we must have been the dregs of disney society and had to beg for a bus (a la Oliver Twist asking for more gruel) which since we were paying 50 a night was tolerable but not if I were paying full price . the night time buses seemed to be a problem at all resorts though, just a little worse for PC
