I can't think of a single reason to stay there, even if I wanted the location for a couple's only low point cost trip, I wouldn't want to sleep on a sofa bed, rather spend fewer points and stay at OKW!

So true. Plus how can it possibly be more than the Beach Club with that location by Epcot.

I'm sure we are all the same with our Points. They are to be protected and used with care. Not to be frittered away but to get us what we want at a location we like.

I know they are less than the Monorail Resorts but they will always command a premium and rightly so.

I may give it a go Dec 20-26 just because I can and will be one of the first in, I'll think about it, but if Boardwalk or Beach Club is available I probably won't.
