Considering the packed crowds, maybe everyone will make up for it with the close body warmth.

We were just there on a split stay and I am glad we stayed at Yacht Club. That lobby area is beautiful!! We were on the second floor near the stairway you could take down into the lobby and I had to take a photo.
