Nice room. The balcony was clearly the highlight. |
Why Did you Select This Resort for your Stay?
|
Had always wanted to say at the Grand Floridian and we were only
going to be in town for one night. |
Room # and Location Description:
|
Building #5, view of space mountain, overlooking the marina. |
Room Location Pros & Cons:
|
Not a great view, but it was quiet and very peaceful on the balcony.
Good view of space mountain. |
Check-In / Check-Out Comments:
|
Was checked in by someone in training. Very painful. Checkout was
not a problem. |
WDW Transportation Comments:
|
Drove to the parks. |
Restaurant / Lounge Review:
|
Ate at Narcoossee's. Food was excellent and the view of the castle
and the lagoon was fantastic. No fireworks the night we were there,
but I imagine that the setting would be ideal. |
Pool Description / Comments:
|
New pool is nice, but there is no hot tub. Old pool renovation was
not complete, so not sure what that will be like in the future. |
What Suggestions Would you Give Anyone that is Considering This
Resort?
|
I liked it, but didn't love it. The balcony was wonderful, and the
lobby is beautiful -- especially with the chandeliers and the band
playing in the evening. For some reason though, it didn't live up
to my expectations. |
