We always book a standard room because all we do is sleep there. This past summer we had room 6060 which is a standard that overlooks the loading docks, but we could see the castle and watched the fireworks from our balcony. Courtyard is also nice but for us, not worth the extra money. It really is more of a personal choice though, depending on how much balance you need. The rooms are the same, just the view from the balcony is different unless you move to a suite.
