DVCNews Debates: Staying at new resort

mt_ignore:DVCNews Debates

While we all hope that a new Disney resort would reach peak operating efficiency from Day One, that isn't necessarily realistic. Even new resorts have unexpected problems with guest rooms, staff that could use a little more training and other issues which may negatively impact the guest experience. These realities force us to question if it's safe to stay in a Disney resort shortly after opening (or reopening from refurb), or if it's better to wait a few months while they iron out the problems.
