This enters the VIP mode which turns off the motion sensor and allows a lower range of the thermostat.

Hopefully someone can try this and see if it works.

Thanks, just printed the directions. I'll be there Dec. 14 and will give it a try. Hopefully someone will try before we head down.

Maybe since your there you can share with us the type of AC control (make or model) I'm sure there is bound to be something on the internet we can find

I've also heard if you call for maintenance they will come fix it.

we need someone to call maintenance and then stand over their shoulder and watch exactly what they do, lol. OR we need someone who is related to someone who works there. :D

if we can't figure it out on our own, no big deal, I'll have maintenance come down 100 times if I have to, until it's as cool as I like it.

Its amazing how much cooler it felt in our room!!

what were the lame options they gave you? so once they did that, it stayed at 65 the rest of the trip?

Did you try the other options of pressing the power (on/off) button and the down arrow button at the same time? Or the power button and the fan button at the same time? Both of those are common overrides for hotel thermostats.

I know there is free WiFi at AOA but from what I've heard it's spotty at best. Is there a Cat 5 network connection in the room for a faster, hard-wired connection? If so, is that free as well? We're checking on on Saturday and need to know if I need to bring a network cable for my laptop. Thanks.

We are looking into AOA and have a 7,4, and 1 year old at the time of travel. For those who have stayed there, is it possible to fit a pack and play in the room for the one year old to sleep in?

None of it works

We will be on our first trip to stay at Disney in 10 Days!!
We went last Dec. for the first time on a Make A Wish trip.
We are staying at the Finding Nemo section and I was wondering if the $14 refillable mug is sold at AOA.
If anyone knows , I appreciate it.

You can probably find one of those plugs that goes in the wall that you can plug the usb in for cheap. I got mine on amazon cheap, but I am sure stores carry them too.
