What should I bring for the Apartment?

What should I bring for the apartment?

I know they're furnished, but as far as decorations, bedding, silverware and dishes, what should I bring? How many towels should i bring? How many outfits(girls)? Shoes? Are there restrictions on putting nails in the wall or thumbtacks if i want to hang up pictures or anything?

Let me know if you have any input!

Thanks :cheer2:

Here's an older thread with a lot of really good answers for you. Of course, it can never hurt to start another thread going. This is definitely an important topic! :)

This is the list on the website informing you on what to bring...

While many amenities are supplied for you, you may want to bring additional items for recreation, decoration or everyday necessity. The following are recommended:

* Set of linens and bedding (twin-size sheets, pillow, blanket, towels, etc.)-cause the apartment only comes with a mattress.
* TV, VCR, DVD player and a coaxial cable
* Stereo (small)
* Toaster
* Coffee Maker
* Phone card
* Answering machine
* Cordless phone (The phone provided in the apartment has a cord.)
* Cell phone (Check with your current provider for coverage information.)
* Alarm clock
* Beach towel, suntan lotion and/or sunscreen
* Camera and film
* Casual clothing
* Professional clothing (Please refer to the Disney Look Guidelines for assistance.)
* Sweater or jacket
* Dress shoes
* Combination lock for the locker in your bedroom
* Computer with Ethernet card
* Original employment eligibility documents
* Cosmetics and toiletries
* Credit card and traveler’s checks (if available)
* Health insurance information
* Personal medications, including prescription drugs, if needed
* Writing paper, envelopes and pens

For clothes, I just brought a big suitcase full of clothes, and for shoes I put in a smaller suitcase. Anything else I need, my mom sends it down to me. For decorations, me and my roommates went to Walmart to buy some appropriate yet awesome stuff because the apartment is basically bare. You are not allow nails, but are allowed tacks, scotch tape, and anything else that does not peel or destroy the walls/paint. Also, bring a bulletin/whiteboard to write down your schedule, post up note/events, etc. Bring a lamp too because the only light in the rooms are the one in the ceiling and that way you won't bother your roommate if you need the light and they are sleeping. Bring at least two towels and also a towel rack cause there is nowhere to hang your towels. If you are bringing your laptop, bring a wireless router, cause the apartment only comes with cable internet. You can hook up the router to the internet box they have there. Hope this helps!

Does anyone know if they have bath mats already in the bathrooms or is that something else we have to provide?

They don't have bath mats, so you have to buy them. Also, get something for the bathtub (like a nonslippery mat), because they do get slippery when you take a shower.
