I stayed at a Marriott down the street, and while obviously, it's not on the same grounds ... They had DSL access...which is why I chose to stay at the Marriot. I also had a suite that slept 6 for $99 a night. You can't beat that. Yeah, you have to use a shuttle or rent a car to get back and forth ... But I thought it was well worth it.
This year, I might try and try at the Swan and Dolphin ... But a suite w/DSL versus a box with a bed ... It's a tough decision.
