It seems that most agree that for a standard view room, being close to an elevator is a priority.
Pros of Rafiki elevator: Closest to pool, tied for closest to Lobby/buses
Cons of Rafiki elevator: Long walk to Jambo house
Pros of Pumba: Chance at a Savannah view (only standard rooms with this), reasonably close to pool
Cons of Pumba: Longest walk to Jambo house, tied for longest walk to Kidani lobby and buses
Pros of Timon: Tied for closest to Lobby and buses, second closest to Jambo
Cons of Timon: Kind of in the middle of everything but not close to anything (e.g., pool, Jambo house) except Lobby
Pros of Zazu: Closest to Jambo house
Cons of Zazu: Longest walk to pool, tied for longest walk to lobby/buses
Is this about right? Our kids plan on spending a lot of time at the pool so I've definitely narrowed it down to Pumba or Timon. Although there is a regular shuttle to Jambo, we still may end up near Timon so we'd have an easier walk.
Also, with a Standard view, how much does floor matter? Should I ask for highest for low noise or will trees give me no view?
Thanks!
