$10 Fee at AllStars for particular buildings??

[heath dog]

Can someone please explain this to me. Do you pay an extra $10 for a closer building at this resort. We are staying at ASMu in May and have 3 times in the past. I would like to request the Calypso building but I thought I read somewhere that this is the building with the fee.
Thanks

I don't know which buildings have the preferred views - my 2 cents worth is that I wouldn't pay $10 more for the preferred view at any of the All Stars. All the rooms are the same and the views are fairly similar. In fact, I usually prefer to be back in one of the corners where it's peaceful Just my opinion.

You read it correctly! Fantasia, Calypso and Surf's Up buildings at the All Stars are all $10 additional/night. Basically its due to their location to the pool and food courts.

I stayed at ASM May 2001 and had my trip all prepaid through my Travel Agent b4 I left. We were supposed to be in rooms in Mighty Duck section and I asked could I have a room in Fantasia as I wanted to be closer to pool and bus stop. They changed me no problem and I did not pay any fee.

I know that they added this fee fairly recently. I think the fee is only applied if you request one of these buildings at the time of making the ressie. If you get to check in and ask for a specific building and it's available...you most likely will not be charged the extra $10 per night.

The $10 extra preferred buildings became effective in January 2002.

FAX FAX FAX your requests 5 days before you arrive. I did this in Feb. and DID not get charged. I asked for Building 1, but NOT facing the pool, and I got it, about 20 feet from the Elevator, it was great! Ask for Non-smoking if also needed!
