Refreshed? Thanks for any insight!!

Contemporary does, but especially Tower Club (vs Atrium, though they also have baconies) - huge balconies.do any of the lounges have any out door type of patio seating or is it all inside? i have wilderness lodge booked for jan 10-14 but open to moving. i stayed at boardwalk last year and i know they didnt.

So....this may be an unpopular opinion - but we will NEVER come back to YC CL again. The staff is (mostly) delightful. And the food has been good.
The deal breaker for us is we have a water-view room and the balcony is unusable due to the inability to turn off the balcony lights at night on any room on the 5th level.
It interferes with the ability to really see the fireworks. And the sheer volume of bugs the lights attract mean you can't go out there without being swarmed. And you can't really open the door without risking the bugs coming in with you. When you get up in the morning the doors are still covered in those tiny little gnats and things.
We love sitting on the balcony after a day in the parks to relax and have a glass of wine. And it was one of the big factors in us choosing this resort - and the reason we paid the extra for a water view....
(OH. And if you are assigned to 5171 ASK TO BE MOVED before you settle in. It's right next to the elevators and all morning and night you hear the mechanics of the elevators rumbling - we were fortunate there was another room available that night and didn't have to stay - but we were unpacked...)
Sorry you didn’t enjoy your stay. That’s do annoying with the price you pay. Sounds like you might have run into love bugs? We stay at YC CL most trips, I’ve watched fireworks many times without issues. Although I don’t sit out there at night, just watch them & go back inside.
Smart you asked to move away from 5171 that first night. We’ve been in that room twice. It gets even worse at 6:30 am. That’s when the CL staff starts banging carts & dishes & doing something that entails emptying lots & lots of ice from the ice machine. I’ve never asked for a room change, but I will if we ever get assigned that room again.
Sorry, I don’t know the answer to this, however there are a couple of people currently at The Grand. Can try asking in the GF thread and see if they might be willing to ask at the front desk. If not, @sdk1231 might be able to help.Dumb question, but do we know what they’re doing with the outer building “CL Access” suites at GF while RPC is closed? Are they putting a temporary lounge with light offerings somewhere, or one of these you pay the same rate even without the CL part situations we’ve seen before? Maybe a room credit for supplies from Gaspy’s? I’m assuming no temporary setup since it’s not all that many potential guests, but just curious.
Ew, 5171. We’ve been there. DH loves YC CL, so we always be sure to put that we DON’T want that room in our request. The lighting thing is weird - I don’t recall that, we were there in Nov. That would upset me, as well.So....this may be an unpopular opinion - but we will NEVER come back to YC CL again. The staff is (mostly) delightful. And the food has been good.

I'm told that the Outer Building suites will just be suites, no CL offerings or amenities while CL is under refurbishment.Sorry, I don’t know the answer to this, however there are a couple of people currently at The Grand.

Thank you for your help!!!I'm told that the Outer Building suites will just be suites, no CL offerings or amenities while CL is under refurbishment.
Morning! I just want to make sure I understand…currently and until further notice, there’s no CL offerings or amenities available at GF?I'm told that the Outer Building suites will just be suites, no CL offerings or amenities while CL is under refurbishment.
We had the same room assigned to us for our 11 day trip last December. Same problems, we did not sleep at all the first night. I called for a room change immediately in the early morning. The central office sent me ear plugs(what a joke) and tried to move me to the BC but not a CL floor but I would still have access. I finally went to the YC CL manager at 7 am. She was wonderful. She moved us to my original requested room on my third day, gave us a room credit. That room 5171 is in a horrible location. Never call the front desk, it goes to a call center. Go right to the YC CL manager. They know what to do. The vets on the board were very helpful to me when I first complained at 5 AM that morning. They knew who to contact and what to do.So....this may be an unpopular opinion - but we will NEVER come back to YC CL again. The staff is (mostly) delightful. And the food has been good.
