Re: Do you stay at a Disney resort? Why or Why Not?

Re: Most Overrated and Favorite Restaurant?

Favorite: Toss up between the Rose and Crown (I love pub food) and Crystal Palace (for the atmosphere - watched fireworks from our table one time).

Most Overrated: Coral Reef. I've eaten there a couple times. The food is OK, but I've never been truly impressed.

Re: Least comfortable ride seats

I'd have to vote for Haunted Mansion. It's probably one of my favorite rides, but the seats are just not comfortable. I'm not super tall (6 feet), but I can't sit upright because of the overhanging top.
