Tom...are you feeling OK? I agree with you on a lot of things, but your fondness for this new style of Boardwalk room made me run the video back twice to make sure I didn't misunderstand something. With the exception of 2 pieces of wall art, Disney has once again hosed the place down with Boring. There's nothing Boardwalk-y about this room. It's like they combined some Grand Floridian leftovers with Ikea overstock. Mix in some depressed earth tones, and it's another win for Disney's new theming of Grayboxification.

The bath looks terrible (not even a hand held shower, or hand bar for older people) and the unit housing the safe, etc reminds me of something you’d see in a hospital room.

The beds are Motel 6 style with a headboard thrown it. So, their big design "flair" is 3 pictures a lampshade and a couple of rehashed pictures, wow, what an effort! This isn't worth the money that they're charging. This isn't Disney theming. If this is "better" then that's horrible.

But I figured I could get over the ugly room for the convenience of the location. But the room was beautiful and I would stay there again. But there was a lot of construction noise, so that sucked.

This is one of my home resorts and I have to say that I am disappointed. It's so cold and uninviting. At least there are a few Disney related items in the drapes, but all in all it looks like a low end hotel room anywhere in the United States. I know the convertible sofa is really an effort to disguise a single bed, but it would really be nice if it was located so that you could sit on it when you wanted to watch TV. The Grand Floridian has the same issue. Maybe they could add an area rug that would soften the look and absorb some of the sound. Some of these rooms used to have a desk or a chair with an ottoman. I miss those too.

I don't know who was being this remodel and the design but my 8 yr old granddaughter could have done better. There is no rhyme or reason for the colors, totally don't go together. Then use an old coffee stand that doesn't even come close to matching the other new furniture. It's just in a horrible place also. I've done a few tile jobs in my time and would never have chosen that design in the shower. Your suppose to use accents in tile, this is not an accent. I would NEVER pay the amount of money to stay in a room that looks like this. One positive is I do like the pictures but they all match in style. I would rather stay at all stars then spend the +700 for this room. Sad is I see Disney going downhill lately, with something as simple as a room remodel. If it was drab before, don't know what you would call this....

I prefer the "beachy" touches of the old rooms (e.g. the lifeguard lamp). This design is too sterile for me. I like that it is crisp and clean, but it doesn't feel like what a Boardwalk room should feel like to me. I'm not a fan of tile (my feet are already cold enough), and would miss the warmth of a carpet/rug. I noticed a couple of design flaws, possibly because of the floor plan. They really should not have the clean towels stored above the toilet (to get contaminated if you flush without closing the lid), and why are there no places for towels near the shower/tub? There's a hook, but that's for your robe. Also, placing the coffee maker next to the thermostat will wreak havoc with the room temperature. I would be OK staying in this room, but I would definitely be providing a lot of comments if they sent me a survey about it.
