Beth, our travel agent, reviews Disney’s Coronado Springs: "If you stay 'up' on your refurbishment schedules you're aware that Coronado Springs, one of the four resorts in the 'moderate' category, completed a total room refurbishment a few months ago. I just got back from a 2-night stay there and am happy to report that they did a really nice job. It’s great to have the larger beds (this is the only moderate resort with queen beds instead of doubles) and the new aqua and white color scheme with dark woods is a really nice, calming change from the previous bright colors. The flat panel TV screen is a nice, modern touch and the sliding panels that close to separate the dressing area are a nice improvement over the drapes used in other moderates. The in-room hi-speed internet access worked reasonably well. There are only three negatives to report. The first is probably unique to room 1165 (or I hope it is anyway). When the exterior door is closed there is a gap to the outside that is about a half inch wide along the side near the bottom of the door. Not only does cool air escape (or maybe get in, as the case may be), but there’s also plenty of space for Florida critters to come in. Yuk. The second problem is a noise issue. One very excited, very loud child staying next door woke up his very loud adult travel companions and together they all very loudly spent over an hour preparing for their day in the parks. It was our last morning and we were trying to sleep in a little and enjoy those comfy new pillows and bedding. No such luck. I think I have to attribute it to the interior connecting door we had to their room. It was, of course, closed and locked the whole time, but it seems that the noise comes right through there. And finally, it becomes apparent to the person sleeping closest to the bathroom the first time that person tries to get in bed that the rooms were not really designed for the larger beds. You have about a foot between the bed and the wall there so turning sideways is a must. That’s not a problem when the lights are on, but try doing it in the dark when you don't want to wake anyone else! I can't say I like Coronado Springs better than the other moderates, but I do like it. The Southwestern motif isn't one of my favorites, but this resort does it well. Because it’s the only moderate resort with a convention center it is, in my opinion, a little more upscale than the others, and the Rix lounge is nice in the evening if you're not traveling with children. I also love the Pepper Market, although I'm really sad that they took away the Oriental station. you'll pay a little more to stay at Coronado than the other moderates, but you also get some extra resort amenities and the bigger beds so it’s worth it in some cases. This is also the only moderate resort with suites and with a Club Level. I'll stay here again to be sure, but not before I get around to doing the other three again first. Next month, it’s Port Orleans Riverside and the Polynesian for a night each."
