Just wanted to provide a short review of my 3 night stay at this hotel.
I know it's considered an official Disney World hotel but I've never stayed at a non-traditional Disney resort before and was nervous I'd feel out of the bubble. I only stayed here because I was in Orlando for work but wanted to be close to Disney transportation for evenings. I came away quite impressed.
Price was very good. $305 for 3 nights (includes the daily $25 resort fee)
5 minute walk to Disney Springs with the covered walkway over the busy road.
They offer a park shuttle but since I was only going to Magic Kingdom, I took the Disney Springs bus to Contemporary and walked to MK.
Prices for food and drink were a little crazy in the hotel. Spend a similiar amount and go to Disney Springs!
Lots of Uber/Lyft drivers in the area at all times of the day and night.
The Disney store in the hotel offered a decent variety of options but again, you're 5 minutes from the World of Disney store in Disney Springs.
Every employee I encountered in the hotel had Disney-level service and friendliness.
