We just returned from 9 days at CSR. The resort is beautiful. We loved the Dig Site and the Pepper Market. We were in the Cabanas 8b section, second floor room 8602. Room was clean and reminded me of CBR.
Now for our experience...
When we arrived on Friday we checked into our room in Cabanas 9a first floor. I wanted first floor and the Cabanas section so I was happy. Well after about 15 minutes we heard kids running and screaming outside our door. We look out and they are having a water gun fight. I decided we better ask to be moved because I did not want to have to deal with this all week. No problem, I called front desk and we were moved. I was not happy about 2nd floor, but the view was better, and it seemed quieter, so we moved.
It is important to say that I have two children DS8 and DD6, and when we go to a resort I make them walk the hallways and whisper when they talk, especially early AM or late PM. We take afternoon breaks everyday between 2 and 4. Everyday we could not rest because of housekeeping slamming doors, kids running the halls and toilets flushing non stop. One morning at 7am two kids were right outside our door banging on the railing and screaming. My husband opened the door and looked at them and they went back in their room. It gets worse because on Tuesday, Cabanas 8b was being painted and we got to hear them talk loudly right outside our door and scrap paint off our window as we tried to nap. My husband finally went to management and they offered us a dinner at the Maya Grill.
On Wednesday, we had friends that were staying at PC come visit us at the Dig Site. My girlfriend and I walked back to the room to get ice and on the way back we had to hear the painters whistle and yelp like dogs. I was so mad! I could not believe this was happening at a WDW Resort. I went straight to the manager and he said he would look into the matter. I got a call later from the paint company and he apologized and said he would either move us to another room or move the painters off our building. I told him that I did not feel like packing up again and moving (we were going to La Nouba and dinner) and so he said he would move them. Well, the next day they were still there. I just decided not to go anywhere else by myself and just let it go.
So, the last few days we did not get much rest. Everyday, kids running and screaming, housekeeping slamming doors and toilets flushing. We decided to use our dinner coupon for Maya Grill on our last night. The manager says we cannot use the coupon because the front desk manager didn't fill it out correctly and they could not except it. I was so upset! I went up to the front desk again, and got it worked out, but come on already! By the way, dinner was ok, but we had a wonderful waiter. We have never had any problems at the WDW Resorts. This was our 12th trip in the last 11 years! Our trip was fun, I just feel like our resort was nothing but a hassle. We could have had so much fun at CSR, but as I have heard others say on the DIS; this resort does not hold the Disney Magic for us. We will never return.
Maybe others here will have a better experience with CSR.
