What resort have you stayed at and would NOT stay at again?
I know that sounds a little negative, but we did a "favourites" thread, and to get a really full picture I want to see the other side, too. Please tell why you didn't like the resort.

I would not stay at the POFQ. I thought it was kind of run down compared to the other moderate resorts.

CBR. While it's a nice resort and has an awesome main pool, it is just too large. We had long waits for some of the buses sometimes. We decided that we would never stay there again.

CBR. I thought it was too spread out. And I didn't the the decor was anything special - more like a typical Florida motel room.

Coronado Springs...I won't say it's because of the fact that our rooms were so far from the main bldg and that as far as bus trans we had to go out towards the back parking lot. Or that our arrival night it was late, raining and cold but the fact that we could not get any type of internal shuttle service to our room, let me know this wasn't a resort for us. But after we made it to our plain looking room and got ourselves together, we decided to make the trek back to get something to eat. The chicken wings I ordered were not fresh. I took them back since they were hard to chew. And just went without eating. And then later, I'm picking up a few things, magnet and pin and I'm waiting in line, I was behind someone else, and the 2 girls are just talking amongst themselves. So finally someone comes over and tells them about it and the one says she was just finishing her break. So never to this resort again for me.

Coronado Springs - just not my style and didn't feel as Disney-like as the others we've been at. Had housekeeping issues that didn't get solved until the 3rd phone call and even that wasn't exactly satisfactory.
All Star Music - just don't care so much for the theming.

The CBR...no real reason other than it's the least favorite of all the resorts we've stayed in. We had no issues or complaints...just liked the others better. So....if I had to choose...I wouldn't stay there again.
Nice work, pal.
-
Any of the All-Stars. I know some people love them, but our family just found the rooms too crowded and LOUD (both in Decor and the fact PW was going on at the same time). Thank goodness it was only for 2 nights when we were doing other Orlando attractions those days. NEVER AGAIN!!!
-
I'm sure a lot of people will disagree with this one but for us it was AKL while it is a beautiful resort and has great views of animals it wasn't for us. It just didn't have that "disney magic" we have gotten at the other resorts we've stayed at.

CBR -like previous postings, just nothing "special" and Disney-like about it. Also too spread out and bus service wasn't that great!
-
I will have to admit that it is POFQ for me as well. I really, REALLY want to love it as the grounds are just so charming and quaint, but the rooms just didn't do it for me. I would not say there was anything wrong with it per say, just not a style I enjoyed. If they did a complete remodel of guest rooms, I would try it again.
Also, Pop was not the best experience. It isn't a value thing for me at all, as I have has trips to Movies and Music that were without issue. The food court seemed to be extremely messy during our time there, we had some rude neighbors and overall, I didn't like the theming.
All that being said --- If I had to pitch a tent in the parking lot of the TTC to go to Disney, I surely would. But, if I am being ultra picky, I would not go back to either of these resorts.

I wouldn't want to stay in any of the same resorts again.
But that's just because I'd eventually like to stay at them all, and I don't think I'll be around long enough to hit them twice.

For us it would be any of the All-Stars. too crowded and we just found it to be a little run down.

We have only tried 4 Resorts, Pop, ASMovies, CSR, and POFQ. The one we liked least was CSR, not saying we would never stay there again but it may be a long time before we try it again probably. We did a split stay with CSR and POFQ and both my wife and I liked POFQ much more and we both would stay there again easily.

CBR and Fort Wilderness Cabins do nothing for me. Everything is just too spread out for my tastes. However, many love these, just not me.

Either Music or Sports. Too crowded and they seemed to be run down. If I do value again it'll either be Movies or Pop
