As I said I would switch to an AS resort. They usually only share buses at slower times and at that point I won't care. We would then at least have a table in the room (which you lose when you have to pull down the murphy bed) and neither of us would have to sleep on a murphy bed
Sorry I didnt see you mention going to an AS resort. Just wondering, have you slept on a murphy bed before? Are they uncomfortable?
I think this is due to not enough size for two beds and a pack and play. I think they are assuming this will open up more room, but yes, it is taking away the table and chairs for those who do not have children. It would be nice if they gave the option of a fold down table that can be used when the murphy bed is up. The chairs could be fold ups that you can hang in the closet like the ironing board. I know this is a lot of work, but it gives the room more space and would fit a lot of needs.The only thing I'm really not happy about the renovations is them basically taking away the table when you use the bed. How is that even a good idea?
I would be okay with this.
I would think it would be an easy upgrade.
I agree. A bigger bed, open area if its only two people and no king available.
We do the same, around 45 min. We like to visit during the hot weather so we need a few minutes to go out to the showers beside the pool and get washed up and changed into fresh clothes. Then grab a last Mickey snack. When this happened after about the first 5 minutes we were looking at each other doing the 'what's the hold up' thing. A few more minutes passed and another CM asked if we had been helped which we said yes. Then another 5 minutes pass and we try to get the attention of the second CM and when we got him he said something about wondering why we had been standing there so long. He then goes off in search of our bags and takes about 5 more minutes. Then came out with the our bags and says 'are these by chance the ones you want?' OMG, what if they weren't? Fortunately, we allow an hour to get from the park back to the resort so we had tons of time but by the time we got our bags, changed clothes, grabbed a snack and got back to the DME stop we had about 10 minutes left until the 15 minutes before pick up time.
I do that with many things but didn't think of the claim tickets.....but I will next month. We are on the same flight home, so the plan is the same. MK all day and then back to POP around 4pm to change and get on the DME.
That is just so bizarre that they just disappeared like that. How very odd (and stressful).We do the same, around 45 min.

What does that have to do with anything? Maybe the person who managed to draw the queen bed wants to use the table to eat something they brought back from the food court but can't because now the other wants to sleep on the murphy bed that's folded down onto the only table in the room. Or what we can't agree on who gets the luxury of the queen bed over the murphy bed. I just don't the the murphy/queen setup is a convient one for all people and I think there should be an option. I booked the room before the refurbishments were announcement based on the layout that is available now, if it changes I will change resorts to something suited to my liking.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you? I was asking if you have slept in a murphy bed before and found them uncomfortable, because I haven't. I was looking forward to sleeping in one, but if they are uncomfortable. I might not be looking forward to it as much. I'm sure the refurb will take a while. It's not like they are just swapping out the mattresses like the last one. They are pulling up carpet and putting down new flooring. I can understand your concern about the table. If you had read my other posts I also gave other suggestions to the table concerns that people have. Again sorry if I have upset you, that was not my intention.
I'm still trying to decide if I like the new rooms. Going with a friend but we always get seperate rooms. If it's just me in the room I'm ok with new room. If one of my daughters decides to come, then she gets Murphy bed, and possible loss of table use. If I'm having a breakfast in the room, I just don't want to eat in bed. I prefer having a table. Anything more than 2 people in the value rooms are way to squishy for me.
I can understand this. I think it happens at all values, it is mainly finding a time that they are in school and not off.
The SATGs also stay at all 3 Mods at times.
Were the SATGs actually staying at AoA or just "visiting" while they were staying across the bridge at POP?Thanks.
