Which room at WL?

[moonchild]

Hi everybody! Happy Labor Day! Just paid the balance on out trip for December. Im going to call and request a room at the WL. Any suggestions? :sohappy:

Did you pay for standard or courtyard?

If you have standard view, I highly recommend a room overlooking the lobby. Awesome view, especially with the Christmas decorations up.

We have a Standard room. Its actually part of the land sea package. 3 nights at WL and 4 nights on the cruise. Do I just call the resort and ask?

Oh man am I jealous! We went on the Disney Cruise a few years ago doing the land/sea package and it was great. Anyway, as for what room to ask for, if you are getting a standard view definitely ask for one that is over the lobby, as for specific room #'s I'm not sure, we have always sayed in the Villas. There is supposed to be good info including specific room #'s to ask for at each of the resorts according to what type you want in the new Unofficial Guide to WDW comming out soon, I haven't seen it yet, but have heard that it's supposed to be really good.

I suggest that you keep your standard room. When you check in, they should automatically upgrade you to a courtyard view if there is any vacancy (no extra charge for this). If they do not, ask them if they would.

Thanks for the tip Kingdom Konsultant. Would you say that this practice is fairly common during the off-season?

I cant wait to be back in Disney! We are going to have dinner at the Artists Point as a treat one night. We are saving our change in one of those water dipenser bottles for dinner. I think we have enough for 2 appetizers and 2 dinners so far!

They will do this year round if they have the space. When I went in Dec. I stayed in the Contemporary and had a garden wing booked. They upgraded me to the Tower.(9th floor) I watched the fireworks from the MVMCP every night from my balcony. Like I said, if they do not do it automatically...ask.
Have a great trip!
