No. That doesn't seem right. I don't think the monkey is about to eat the cat.

You forgot. Most of those things will climb or fly or hitchhike. Upper floor doesn't resolve the issue. And palmetto bugs aren't phased by pesticide. They survived the ice age that killed all the dinosaurs.Never seen any when I've stayed at the Disney resorts, though I'm not especially surprised -- and note to self to request upper level rooms in future. I think we've always just happened to be put on an upper level; didn't really think about the ground floor issue despite having lived in both Florida and Texas.
I don't know if I'd necessarily demand a room change if I spotted one, but I'd certainly let the front desk know. When I was in the College Program they made a big deal about us needing to immediately notify our housing office if we found any live bugs in our apartments so the place could be re-treated right away -- while the CP apartments are run by an outside company, I always figured Disney made the same kind of effort to stave off potential infestations on their own directly owned property. I think we found live bugs once in one of the apartments where I stayed (and I was there for two semester-long programs), and they were itty bitty things, not cockroaches. Yes, there are bugs everywhere in Florida, but no, I wouldn't accept cockroaches in my room as a matter of course.
Now, the lizards...I'm surprised I've never seen one of those suckers inside, though maybe they're kept away by the air conditioning. When I'd walk to and from the grocery store I'd see a lizard on the sidewalk every couple of feet.

I had a shrivelled up lizard next to my bed at OKW.
1. The housekeeping should be universal and they actually do a fantastic jobWe had ants in our theme park view room in the tower at the contemporary. I was beyond annoyed, considering the amount of money it was costing me per night. I complained, and they refunded half of my stay.

2. You're "there park view room" features a $400 per night surcharge for the window...hope you liked it
The theme park view is amazing. We were able to watch Wishes from our balcony. Around midnight of our 3rd night, they had another fireworks show that was not scheduled, and we still are not sure what it was. However, to watch fireworks over the castle from bed is phenomenal. Other than the ants, the room and balcony was worth every penny. We wouldn't hesitate to book again. In fact, we didn't
Had you ever scene the fireworks before? Cause it doesn't change much...just saying...
Instead of that much money for a 1970's hotel and a 10 minute fireworks...I'll do a 30 minute tap routine a la Gene Kelly for far less...standing offer
Scene? No. I have watched the fireworks millions of times. We live close, and are there often. As stated, we have no idea what impromptu show they did at midnight. It was after the park was closed, and certainly an added treat. Isn't it wonderful that we all have choices on how to spend our own money?
