I didn't take your post to be a put down, and didn't think it was an exaggeration. I took it at face value and asked what was wrong.
A lot of people remark that Swolphin aren't as heavily themed, and certainly not Disney themed, like the Disney O&Os. I think part of that is that Disney theming would get expensive to a non Disney entity because they would have to pay additional licensing fees to The Walt Disney Company for use of Disney intellectual property (anything trademarked by Disney that they decide they have to collect a royalty on). I've eaten at several of the restaurants over the years and never had an issue. I've actually stayed at the Dolphin as many times, and perhaps more times than any of the Disney hotels. Plus, Dolphin is the first on property resort I stayed at, so there's that connection for me as well.
I just thought, or assumed that you had stayed there and had a really horrible experience and wondered what it was.
