I'm a Pop newbie so I have some questions.
A little background: I've stayed at all the non-DVC resorts except POP and CR so I thought I would give POP a try. I'm traveling solo so that's a big consideration in some of my questions. I usually travel solo to WDW so I'm familiar with other value, moderate and deluxe resorts and the resort layouts.
My trip is planned for Wed 10/25/17-Sun10/29/17 in a Standard room. 4 nights. I have an AP (FL resident) so tickets/dining, etc aren't relevant.
- I would like a renovated room. From what I've read, these are in the 80 and 90s buildings? Any others? I put in a request for a renovated room and I know they are only requests. If I knew what buildings are complete/in progress, I am hoping to get to the front desk and request a renovated room using a building number for my verbal request.
- On the other hand, since, I am traveling solo, I want to be in a room that is in a well trafficked area. Somewhere off in the hinterlands of the resort is not good. I've had really good luck with the CMs at the All Stars with this request.
- Have they put coffeemakers in the rooms yet?
- Anything else I should know?
- I don't need daily housekeeping so does that mean I can get a gift card? Score! if possible!
I appreciate any help you can give. I read the first page and it was very helpful but the pics aren't showing for me and the message for the photos says the original poster's photobucket account needs to be updated to allow 3rd party hosting. I don't know if it's my settings or the person that started this thread.
