We are returning to the FQ in March. I desperately want a refurbished room. Should I request that on our reservation, or should I request a certain building?

Thank you!...I'll do that. I am anxious to see what they look like!If you want a refurbished room, then ask for that. Don't try to guess which building might have refurbished rooms.

Building 4We are booked for 7 nights at POFQ with my mom and two kids (6 and 3). I will be 21 weeks pregnant as well. What is the best bldg to request for bus access? We were there week of Thanksgiving and stayed in bldg 3, top floor and that wasn’t bad since we had our car with us. We are not renting a car this time since DH isn’t coming on this trip and neither my mom or I feel like driving. Also, how packed do buses get if we want to join the rope drop crowd? Should we show up around 6:45am? Or earlier? The plan is to hit the parks first thing in the morning and go back to POFQ right after lunch. I figured the kids can enjoy the pool/splash area in the afternoons and I can figure out if we can handle dinner at a park. I’m nervous since I don’t know how exhausted I will be this time around. Eek!
Definitely building 4. The bus stop is right across the parking lot. Plus it’s pretty much the closest to the food courtWe are booked for 7 nights at POFQ with my mom and two kids (6 and 3).

Have you looked at the terrific portorleans.org?What is the best bldg to request for bus access?
It is in the middle of the building. Yes, only one.I think we will request Bldg 4 for our first POFQ stay in October.
Just curious...where is the elevator in this building? Is there only one? Is it on the parking lot side?

I must have been thinking 1 bank of elevators Has anyone peeked in windows to snap some pics yet?Two per building actually, located next to each other:

I will just be requesting a refurbished room, but here is their refurb schedule by building. Looks like 2 and 3 should be done by then.We are returning to the FQ in March. I desperately want a refurbished room. Should I request that on our reservation, or should I request a certain building?
An additional datapoint...On our New Year's trip, the "right" elevator in building 7 never opened on our 7 night stay. I figured it was analogous to running attractions at "half capacity" in the low season.
I hope they don't change carpet to "wood" flooring.
