Hi everyone. We just got back from a stay at the WL. I can't remember our room number but it was on 3rd floor facing the otter pond. we could see some of the fireworks but the woods blocked out most of it. The boat ride to the MK was very quick and the resort was really pretty. we stayed there a couple of nights before moving on to stay at our timeshare so we only had a couple of meals at the resort which was B'fast at roaring forks carried up to our room. it was a small food court type place but they had good B'fast choices. I would recommend the WL highly to anyone but keep in mind that the rooms are very noisey.
I have a comment to make that I hope doesn't offend parents of small children so bear with me while I say this. please. if you have children, tell them to be respectfull of other guests staying in the hotel. there are people trying to sleep and if they yell, slam the door over and over, and run up and down the hall it (sounds like someone is beating a rug. thumpidy, thump thump) it is very loud and some of us in those rooms cannot sleep with all the noise your kids are making. if there is a water parade or fireworks going on at 10 oclock at night, please don't let them scream and yell out on the balcony. there is probably someone in the room next to you tired and trying to sleep. please don't let them press every number on the elevator. it is aggrivating to the rest of us who are in a hurry to have to stop on each and every floor because they pushed all the buttons. teach your kids to cover their mouths when they cough. and if you have a double decker stroller, kindly move over to the side just a little so some of us can get past you in the hallways. but most of all and I can't stress this enough, please teach them to try and be respectfull of guests in nearby rooms who may be sleeping. I had to buy earplugs and still overheard loud children even after midnight. I know kids will be kids and it IS Disney, but we would all be much more happier at the happiest place on earth if people would take into consideration other peoples feelings sometimes and remember the golden rule of "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" well, just had to get that off my chest!
