    BWV studio upgrade

    We stayed in the new studios last week as well. They lack of storage drove my wife nuts. But now that we know it is an issue will be bringing hanging closet organizers on our next visit in the summer. They should help a lot. It has to be better than living out of a suitcase.

    BWV Refurb Progress

    I have to admit when I first saw pictures of the renovated rooms, both the wife and I didn't like them. But we stayed in a newly completed studio last week, and the rooms are so much nicer in person. I really liked the room a lot. We stayed in a standard view on the 4th floor, and looked like...

    Boardwalk Villa Clown Pool is Closed

    Yep, the kids loved the BCV pool. But they seemed to enjoy the rides on the golf carts between the resorts the most. Boardwalk was really great about trying to make it better for guests with kids that wanted to use the slide during the Clown Slide refurb.

    Luggage tags

    Very Funny! I just had the same conversation with MS yesterday. In the past, I always just cut the tags in half with no issues. But I seen on the back of the tags "do not cut" (which I didn't remember seeing in the past). So I called, and the person I spoke to told me not to cut the tags. He...

    Are most DVC check-ins at 4?

    Thanks everyone for the replies and help setting my expectations. We have a 2bd villa booked at VGF, so I can assume we will not get in the room before 4pm. The whole resort is at 99% capacity for the month of August.

    Are most DVC check-ins at 4?

    We are staying at VGF in late August. Being new to DVC, and this will be our fist stay at a DVC resort. What is the norm for check-in times, is it really 4pm most of the time? Just wondering what people have experienced in the past at the WDW DVC resorts.

    DCL Transport WDW to Port

    We are presently signed up for Disney Transportation from Grand Floridian to the Port. I didn't realize they would pick us up that late. We have a 10:30am boarding time, looks like there is no way will get there by that time. I may change it now. Has anyone used Uber to get from WDW to the port?
