Swan and Dolphin...it's about the ambiance.
The promenade at night is beautiful
Don't look at it as shabby-look at it as chic.
For me, it's on the "list" because of it's history...not to mention, you are so close to the Boardwalk area so you can hit Jelly Rolls and stumble back to your hotel

I liked Dolphin. Wouldn’t take little kids but would take teens. Adults only sure. The cost is a little more than a moderate with walk-in access to EPCOT, Boardwalk and (a little longer) DHS.
Bluezoo is a very nice restaurant. Get the dancing fish. Kimonos is fun for Karaoke and good sushi. The pool is large and quiet.
The stumbling back issue referred to above cannot be overemphasized. If you plan to drink around the world, the Swan/Dolphin lets you avoid the “bus ride of shame”.
At a minimum of $50 less than the other Epcot area properties it’s like the first round is on Starwood.

We love the Dolphin, great transportation, location, food choices, pools/activities. We aren't picky, but have never noticed carpets or anything 'drabby'.

We stayed at the Swan two years ago. Our room was "drabby" for sure. We were unimpressed overall and I'm not sure I'd ever stay there again but I'll never say never.

We stayed at Swan 3 years ago, and loved it. Our rooms weren't "drabby" at all. And I am picky! Lol! The beds were super comfy. Restaurants were all good, and the pool very nice. My favorite part is the location. We are Epcot people, so loved the easy ferry ride to Epcot to enter via the Gateway. Enjoyed an evening stroll along the boardwalk several nights of our trip. Overall, a really enjoyable stay. Good luck!

We stayed at the Dolphin two years ago and were not impressed by the rooms or the pool. While the location can't be beat, we will not likely return.

The pool we were SUPER unimpressed with. It was covered in green slime and the lifeguards were a joke.

We stayed at the Swan and thought it was a hidden gem! The location was excellent for us. The proximity to HS and Epcot for the price was quite a value. We liked the Grotto pool-didn't think it was slimy. Didn't miss the Disney Theme. Our kids had no problem with it either.
