Accommodations Review:
|
From reading other reviews left here, it seems like we lucked out!
Very clean, although the room seemed a little "tired". ( needed new
bedspreads, etc) Didn't get any special treatment from housekeeping
but they did a great job otherwise. |
Why Did you Select This Resort for your Stay?
|
Friends and relatives had positive experiences here, and did a lot
of research and thought this would fit our plans best. (lots of quiet
"down time", naps for the kids, a break for all of us from the sensory
overload of the parks) |
Room # and Location Description:
|
I think it was 9803??? We were in Oak Manor, first floor, facing
the courtyard. |
Room Location Pros & Cons:
|
It was the perfect location, we thought! Reasonable walk to bus
stop, pool ( which we didn't use but once - son broke his arm the
week before we left!) and short walk to food court and store. |
Check-In / Check-Out Comments:
|
Piece 'O' cake! Short line ( about 10 minutes) got to our room within
about twenty to twenty five minutes from pulling up. Golf cart took
us and our luggage directly to room. Did the quickie check out and
they stored our stuff until it was time to leave for the airport.
Flawless. |
WDW Transportation Comments:
|
I wish they had more buses! Hello, it's a h-u-g-e resort and it
shares buses with PO. It was fine punctuality-wise, but the crowd
to come home..... and having to get a stroller on to a crowded bus
was NOT fun for us or the other passengers. Drivers were either very
quiet or VERY outgoing! They even helped us with the stroller a few
times. |
Restaurant / Lounge Review:
|
We ate at the restaurant only once, it was good but kind of pricey
for our family. Food court was like at the mall or something, it was
fair food, good for quick lunch or dinner. Dining area needed attention
more than once but for the most part it was fairly tidy. |
Pool Description / Comments:
|
Well, it looked fun! Like I said earlier, we didn't get to enjoy
the pool as much as we planned but they never seemed jam packed and
were clean. |
What Suggestions Would you Give Anyone that is Considering This
Resort?
|
Bring your own stroller if your child is under 4! Even though we
had a great location, we still walked a LOT getting around this resort.
Take a bike ride and enjoy the landscaping. It was one of the highlights
of our trip! |
