For me, no second thought. CSR hands down, especially for $100./night. CSR and OKW are my favorite resorts. I love the tropical feel. I am in Florida after all and have usually left several feet of snow in Northern New England and want to feel the warmth. (might be different in summer).

To me, CSR feels very "deluxe" I have also found parking easy and often close to the room.

Think of what you can do with the extra money.

Does the Gondola station at the International Gateway compromise what used to be a quiet entry into Epcot and has it brought more foot traffic into the Boardwalk area?

For me CSR.

It was still quiet in this area. We spent a couple of hours in the boardwalk and there were plenty of benches to sit on, each time we used the boat we could get on straight away. So I wouldn't say that I noticed a big impact, this was a week ago.

I've never been to the BC so I am biased but CSR seriously is a lovely resort. It was our first time staying onsite and it really surpassed all our expectations. We had a car but when we decided to take the bus we never waited more than 10 minutes - the only downside to the bus was it was love bug season when we went (September) and some days you couldn't stand in the bus stop due to the swarms of bugs

The security is fine apparently. You can walk to both HWS and Epcot.

The place I spend the least amount of time when on holiday, specially Disney, is my room, and when I am in the room its mostly looking at the back of my eyelids.

I would always choose a resort based on location and facilities over the individual rooms.

Bit the bullet and moved to Coronado. I'm glad to have my 6 nights secured now. Just 9 months to wait!

We loved CSR and really enjoyed getting a quick bus to Hollywood studios then jumping on the Skyliner to Epcot which delivers you right into the World Showcase. I would save your money and go for CSR.
