"The monorail passes right through the middle of this concrete resort, where the rooms have recently undergone a complete renovation."

"The Contemporary is one of Disney’s original resorts, and it’s a favorite among kids both because it’s home to both Chef Mickey’s and the Monorail cuts right through the hotel."
