So, here's my story in three paragraphs or less....
Last year a group of friends planned a trip to WDW - we ended up having a fantastic time. Decided we would go back again this year, but go to Food and Wine. Everything is booked - have rooms at BWV, have our ADRs and were discussing possibility of MNSSHP....
....I came to work today and while I was waiting on hold on the phone I said, 'We have to talk about whether we want to do the Halloween Party because the tickets go on sale soon..." and my friend looked at me and said those scary words, "We have to talk about Disney...."
Over the past few days one of the people in our group received some pretty serious health news. She has been diagnosed with lung cancer - we don't know the extent, we don't know a lot right now, but we feel my friend's spunk, her drive, her outlook will help her immensely. She has been looking forward to going back to WDW. Now, assuming that she has treatments, surgery, chemo, whatever and is capable of going, she may need help getting around. Another of my friends needs a wheelchair at times, and I have no problem pushing the chair - in fact I like the workout. But I can't push two....and that got me thinking about maybe we would need a scooter.
I know how to rent them and everything - but where do you store them? Do people take them back to the room every night for recharging? In small room these would be pretty tough to get around. It is something I never thought about before....so what I am saying is.... what if we need a scooter - where does it get parked at night?

Unfortunately I don't know the answer to your question. I do know that if you rent the scooter from a park or at DTD you do have to return it before you leave the premises. I think the people who have them on the buses and stuff either bring their own or rent them from a third-party. What they do with them once they get to the hotel, I don't know? 
We had a suite @ All Star Music in 2007 ( 6 of us and 2 scooters parked in the room)!
It's doable! I also saw some parked outside of the room, and i think that's OK too.
