Hello y'all!
I just switched my resort room from AoA LM to BWI ...
Took advantage of a 35% room resort stay in a deluxe resort...
Somewhat irrelevant, but how did you get 35% off? I booked today with the 30% online discount... did you happen to call? Would love to save an extra 5%!
We too, booked the BWI for our September trip! I highly suggest popping over to the BWI FAQ thread for room suggestions, photos, experiences, questions, and anything you could possibly want to know about the BWI!
1)Ok so I booked standard room where is the CLOSEST place to get my refillable mug filled with coffee/soda?
2)Again Im in a standard room where is the closest place we can get both a hot breakfast for DH and maybe yogurt and a pastry for me?
You can refill your mug at the BoardWalk Bakery, Boardwalk Joe's, Boardwalk Pizza Window, and Seashore Sweets. Just note that you have to go OUTSIDE of the actual Inn, and onto the Boardwalk to refill your mug.
The Boardwalk Bakery recently opened from refurbishment with some updated offerings, though has always offered hot and cold items. Menu can be viewed here:

The Belle Vue Room (inside the Inn) also offers a continental breakfast daily, the menu can be viewed here:

3) is the quiet pool very far from where Ill be and is it uncomfortable walking thru that beautiful lobby all wet?
The lobby is centrally located between the Inn and Villas. The Inn is almost a horseshoe shape design (the majority of the resort is "standard rooms" with exception to the water view rooms facing the boardwalk, suites, and club level) and the pool is located in the "middle" courtyard area. Here's a map of the resort to give you an "overhead" idea. The Inn is located on the right.

4) Last question I swear! Does BWI have its own resort gift shop? I wasn't sure since there are so many shops out on the boardwalk.
A quote from Allears.net
Where can I buy a T-shirt and some toothpaste?
Dundy's Sundries (very small) is located just off the lobby on the Villa side. It stocks resort logo merchandise and some basic necessities and toiletries. Disney's Character Carnival, Screen Door General Store, and Thimbles and Threads are all located on the Boardwalk. The three stores comprise one giant store and feature character merchandise, clothing for the whole family, as well as groceries and snacks

Hope that helps a bit!
