Got back on Sunday from a fantastic trip to the BC! We were in room 4540, which was far far from the lobby, but right by the stairs to the path by Epcot, which considering we were there for Food and Wine, worked out well for us!
It was a garden view room, and similar to last year, our view was lacking. We looked out into a tree again. We also had the blinds rather than the blackout curtains, which after reading reviews here I was worried about, but since our room looked out into a tree, there really was no light to get in, so it was plenty dark at night. The only day we noticed any excess light getting in was the morning we tried to sleep in, but we woke up due to the construction noise rather than the light, so it wasn't a huge negative.
The painting work for the most part was quite, except of course the one day of the week we decided to sleep in, HA! Right at 9 it sounded like they started pressure washing the building right outside our room followed by what sounded like someone banging on the metal railings with a hammer for 5 minutes. That day was the only time the whole trip we heard any noise whatsoever from the painting!
The room was really nice, had a daybed, which we didn't need, but my mom loved to have to put her shoes on in the morning. We also had a full balcony which was nice. Mousekeeping was ok, they didn't show up some days, and some of the days they did come didn't take out the trash and left used cups around the room and didn't replenish the coffee. We had the room check once in our trip on a day mousekeeping didn't show up. It wasn't too intrusive, my mom was napping at the time, and the guy let me go make sure my mom was up and decent before he came in. The poor guy looked super guilty for coming in while my mom was in bed and left in a hot second!
Overall it was a great stay, can't wait to be back next year!
Here are some pictures of our room:
