With any DVC property that shares facilities with a Deluxe Resort, the check in is in the main resort.
Well, unless you count Kidani as sharing facilities with AKL. That resort has its own check in area.
The Bay Lake Tower is part of the Contemporary Resort....there is essentially no functional lobby at the BLT unless you count the DVC and TOTWL checkin area as such.
Visitng in May and wanted to know, do you go to the main check in point at the Contemporary first?
And you can't even get into the BLT lobby without a valid room key unless you happen to follow another guest through the doors.
