Advice needed from my fellow Universal fans

Without ruining DD's trip report, I will not go into details about our stay at Hard Rock until she is finished. Suffice it to say that after having problems at HRH two years in a row, we will no longer be staying there. That said, I can't imagine not staying onsite when we go to Universal. Thus our choices for our hotel will be Royal Pacific or Portofino Bay. We just earned enough stays to finally be considered Loews Platnum which means we will be automatically upgraded to a suite on our next stay--FINALLY!

I have looked into the suites at both hotels and they are the same size. Which do you think would be the better choice Royal Pacific or Portofino Bay and why? I plan to have the next trip booked by the end of January before DH can change his mind. Last year, he kept saying that after the trip we just finished we were going to take a break from Disney and do other things. He said he enjoyed it more this trip and would like to stay at AKV before we start taking other trips.

Anyhow, I am really long winded this morning... Advice and suggestions are always appreciated.
