Did you specifically book lake or MK view? If you booked MK View you'll get it. Much less likely for an upgrade to MKview if you booked lake, however rooms ending in 10, 12 and 34 will probably have a partial view of MK but wouldn't be technically classified as MK view.

With the salon closed, is there a different number to schedule massages? Do they do them in the room or at the spa...if the CR has one.

Thanks! I'm glad to hear that. I figure it may be good to do it while Reid is still pretty young.

We are staying at the Contemporary for the first time in June. I'm so excited to be so close to MK!

Ok I'm kinda confused. We have a trip booked in Oct '13 with me, wife, and 2 kids (2,4) in BLV club room.

Now my MIL wants to tag along.

Disney says that 3 adults won't work but the website says it will. We would like to just add her on to our reservation if possible. Still can't believe I typed that lol!

Was the CM wrong?

[Lisa71]

Occupancy limits unless you are in a larger room or suite are 4 or 5 if the little one is in a crib. If the 2 year old is in a crib and your Mil sleeps with the 4 year old you could do it..but I would think it would be very crowded !

[cw21726]

Yeah. It would be. lol

After reading that post again we'll opt for another route! Thanks!

The one thing to remember is that all CR rooms have a day bed. So you have sleeping for 5 even without a crib or roll away. We found the rooms at CR to be very spacious and even though we were only 4, I think 5 would have fit fine. I guess it depends if you really want to be in the same room as MIL

KOOK, I am so pleased to see this new thread. You've done a great job (as usual ). The photos, history (nice ) and info are just KOOKerific!

We are going Deluxe next month. I am trying to decide on requesting 1st or 3rd floor. Maybe 1st for patio area... I'm torn.

Thanks again for your terrific efforts here on the DIS. You are truly a thread Matisse!

I'll be at the Contemporary Garden View for a conference, in April, and moving over to the BLT at conference end (to finish out the week).

Can I check out of the Garden View and into the BLT at the Contemporary (in one place), or do I need to make two stops (checking OUT at the Contemporary; checking IN at the BLT)?

Crazy question, I know, but I'm a "planner."
