    Guest experiences with daily room checks

    Staying at Saratoga Springs with DVC points. Tonight a very light knock, almost didn't hear it. Wife went to open the door and a woman says "inspection". What? Is this what it has come down to? We are animals and we are to be inspected? No trash emptying, no nothing. She peers for 2 seconds...

    Guest experiences with daily room checks

    I just ended a rather long stay at DVC's Old Key West, which began on October 21, 2018 and ended on November 9, 2018. What I learned from cast members here is sometime in July 2018 a reversal of a portion of the new policy occurred. This occurred again with the same lack of transparency the as...

    No, you didn't miss it. I didn't ask but would be willing to guess anything over a full day would get a response like we saw at the beginning of the policy. Namely, insistent knocking of the door and/or phone calls. I still maintain that this is a good compromise.

    Wifi quality in the Disney resorts

    At Old Key West Resort I did a speedcheck. I got between 4 and 5 Mb/S download and around 1 Mb/S upload. The results in the parks are way better. Around 20 down and 5 up.

    Earlier this year I helped documented here, a new policy at Disney which started January 8, 2018 which began the process of putting Disney eyes into every occupied room. I shared a letter I had sent to Disney management detailing my concerns about this new policy. The policy created a rather...

    Yes. And it was in the contract I signed on the 3rd day of their operation too. Unreal. Welcome Home!

    An open letter to Disney about mandatory room checks.

    I just became aware that the head of DVC, Ken Potrock, was promoted and therefore is no longer with DVC. Is there confirmation of this? Would this have any potential of changes to this room check policy? Welcome Home!

    An open letter to Disney about mandatory room checks.

    My issue is "at what price". I believe we are paying a huge price, by giving up our privacy and really not getting value from it. We are also paying a cost with the stress of "are we going to be interrupted" when we don't want to be? In other words we pay the price of having the room check at...

    Gang, please be careful what you say. I said nothing, absolutely nothing about intelligence, or being hysterical or not. Please read carefully: I said "we have two entirely different value systems." Nothing else. I implied nothing else. Sheesh. Welcome Home!

    Saratoga Springs-what to bring?

    If you use salt, bring some along. I don't believe they provide that. Also, be aware that as of January 8th, Disney now inspects every room, every day. On those days Housekeeping comes in, that counts toward that days inspection. There are a few threads which discuss this here.

    Allison: I can not take credit for the following words. I believe @Jen1995 said the following: "It will affect my stay because now I have to sit and wonder when, if at all, I will hear someone banging on my door demanding entry. Hard to relax while you are sitting there wondering if you will...
