There's almost nothing letting you know you're staying at Disney, except the expense.
The property is fine for what it is, but that's not what it's sold as: For the price, it is not a value. The property is laid out almost dormitory style, with the lobby being .5 a mile from your potential building. The amenities boil down to one main pool/restaurant//bar area off of the main lobby, a couple of Motel 6 style pools for the other buildings, bus stops and access to the Skyliner. If you've brought your own car, not a large issue (aside from nightly self-parking fee), but if you're arriving without, you've got a trudge ahead.
Upon checking in, we were only given one room key and a map, no credit card was asked for which I thought was odd but hey, it's Disney, they're pretty dialed-in. The next day, we receive a message via room phone (didn't actually ring), that we needed to come to the lobby. It turns out the check-in agent didn't get a card. Not a huge deal but we did have to walk all the way back to the lobby. The food was...food, and a surprising lack of options for it. Something about this service and lack of amenities at this price just rubbed both my wife and I the wrong way.
We've stayed at almost every Disney property, have always had a positive experience, however this was disappointing, especially for the price. Even the economy level properties have character, this felt like a random Orlando hotel on a retention pond. Do yourself a favor and go up or down a tier.
