We've done standard view at BWV several times and always enjoy it no matter where we are put. This past Dec. we were mid-way on the third floor looking out at the main entrance to BW and had an awesome view of the Epcot fireworks. We could actually lie in bed and view them!!! And since it they also had Holiday Illuminations going on we got extra beautiful tall fireworks for viewing every night from out villa - awesome!!!
We've also enjoyed the first floor and having a patio that had a grassy green area for the kids to play and enjoy. It was also super easy to leave and enter through a door right on the first floor on that side of BWV.
