I would agree! This is almost exactly our experience when we went Jan 11-12, Fri-Sat. Line were not bad and we didn't miss EP this trip. Waited an hour for Gringotts once, otherwise no more than 20ish mins for anything else throughout the days. We just watched the waittimes a bit.DH and I went to Universal over Veterans' Day weekend and stayed offsite at the Hilton across the street from the Universal gate. It's maybe 3/4 mile walk to Citywalk? Not sure, but it wasn't too bad at all. I think most people here disagree with me, which is fine , but I was super glad we didn't spend the money to stay on site for the EP. We went to WWOHP first thing in the morning both days, which was the main draw for us, and got on all the rides with almost no wait. We actually went through the Hogwarts line so quickly I feel like I really missed out on seeing a lot. Our second day at about 5 pm the wait for Gringotts was an hour, but we both liked the ride so much that we really did want to do it again and waited. Plus, so many of the rides have single rider lines, so if you're not worried about sitting together then that is a great option.
I guess I lied, we did wait an hour for Hulk once too. I'm not a Hulk fan in general, so... Normally with EP I'll ride once and then let DH got several more times by himself.
