It really depends on what you want as far as location, and if you are willing to pay the extra bucks.

I personally like splitting my stay because I like to stay in a couple of diffetnet themes for different atmosphere. POFQ is fine, though my least favorite of the moderates but it is still nice. I generally try to do two resorts that are very different from each other.

If you value convenience and theme over excellence in service, then go ahead. You will still enjoy the time at the parks and the ambiance of most hotels.

Originally Posted By BrooklynsMom We recently stayed at BC. The location is fantastic, being able to walk to both Epcot and Studios is great! I agree with the bus situation, for some reason, the busses seem to come a lot less frequently for these hotels. Our housekeeping staff was fabulous as well. And if you have kids that will want to swim, you can't beat the pool!
