I would be interested in seeing the question with answers, as well as other survey questions just to gauge the context this was asked (is it a marketing spiel wording question? a how likely would you re-visit question?).
I just booked a 3 night stay at a local casino. The room was $600 not too bad since a days inn was the same price, and then I book the room and bam it's 25% more due to resort fees and tax. I felt ripped off truthfully., why not just charge it in the room rate...like my airline ticket I just bought. Jet blue had 102 one way....the ticket was 76 and the rest tax and fee. But at least I know that $102 is my final price not $300 once I pressed buy.
When is the room rate at the Poly EVER 350$

its likely something along the lines of how likely are you to stay at a Walt Disney World resort if they had a resort fee. I would not stay. Not likely to stay. Doesn't change my opinion. More likely to stay. Will stay for sure.What is the actual question?

My general reaction to this is a big yawn, since most people are generally going to look at the total cost of the room and not just the base rate. .
This would be cool but every resort fee I've ever encountered, including every hotel on the strip in Las Vegas, adds it once you arrive. So it's like one last punch in the gut-wallet. I've never seen it added to your total online bill. Just small print saying you have to pay a daily resort fee once you arrive.
I've never encountered that so I'm not sure how I would react to it. It would probably depend on how prominent the disclosure of the fee was at the time I booked.
I'm really not worried about that with Disney, at least for myself. Any resort fee they imposed would be discussed so openly on the Dis and other social media, if not general news media, I'm sure I, and other avid followers of Disney, would know about it.
$15 dollars to me sounds like what they are starting with. I wouldn't expect it to stay there.
I sort of understand a fee for magic bands. I don't think they thought that process out well - a band for every stay? Seems like a huge waste of money.
I don't understand the fee for ME. I always thought the entire purpose of ME was to get people on property without having them rent a car. Without a rental car, they made it harder for guests to leave and spend their money elsewhere (Universal).
It seems like if they charge for this privilege people would look elsewhere/off-site and potentially spend less money at WDW since they would now have an easier method of visiting another park.
I would stop staying at Disney eyCheck out this survey this guy got and just posted -

I would stop staying at Disney if they do it..funny, just was planning a trip last week! The whole point is their resorts are now astronomically expensive for what you get compared to what you can get off property. If parking and amenities aren't included in their high prices, it's no longer worth it. Hope they don't do it...would ruin our plansCheck out this survey this guy got and just posted -

So, we now have to plan our every activity and meal months in advance, base our choices on available tiers, ever-rising admission and room rates, and now the possibility of extra resort fees. WDW is getting way too complicated and expensive to be an enjoyable vacation.
