beckysko - Thanks for the photos! Wonderful room with lovely views.
I was surprised to hear some of the RPC staff are unaware of the 2nd floor laundry room, I'm sure others have reported asking for it.
Can I exchange my pre-order PhotoPass + voucher at the Mouse Mercantile in the GF or do I need to go to DTD or a Park?
Welcome!
I've never used Photopass, so I can't help. If no one here has any info, you might try posting on the main Resorts board - someone can probably answer in general whether you can exchange at the resorts.
I agree...just wish I knew for sure! I called the GF and the person I spoke with said as of now she sees no information on upcoming construction on the courtyard pool...but who knows!
From past experience, it seems most of the resort CMs are not kept up on the schedule for renovations. Keep in mind, when you call the resort you are more likely talking with someone in a call center - but even if at the resort, we've had reports that CMs denied knowledge of renovations that were taking place that day in the resort.
The info given to
baler31 a few weeks ago indicated the construction on the courtyard pool will begin after the work on the beach pool is finished. I think the plan is for late August, but it rarely goes according to plan.
Oh no! I hope all the buildings don't have only one washer and dryer?! I plan on doing laundry this trip....trying to save money and bring one less suitcase. I imagine most of the guests of the GF don't do laundry
Each outer building has its own laundry room except Sugar Loaf. Most seem to have 2 washers, 2 dryers. I've done laundry at the GF many times and rarely been forced to wait.
Didn't know if this has been mentioned and was wondering if anyone knew more info - I read on another board that the quick service place at GF would be closing for refurb towards the end of august through december. This obviously affects us....as eating will be pretty difficult if that's the only QS option!!
Welcome!
We have heard this, too, but not sure if a timeline was given. Again,
baler31 recently chatted with CMs and management, and they stated Gasparilla's would be renovated, but I don't know if that specific info was given. I think they said it would be expanded, and the possibility of the arcade being removed was mentioned.
This would have a huge impact on anyone, I imagine, except those in club level. CL guests would at least have the option of grabbing breakfast and snacks in the lounge. Hopefully, there will be a temporary solution offered.
