Advice which Lm room to request with an ECV?

[ammag]

Staying at AoA my mom isn't completely immobile without it but will be taking it to two park days. Any particular room or building we should request? I don't think she needs an accessible room since she's not using it or a wheelchair inside. We have two separate rooms booked. Thanks!!,

You are correct that you dont want a handicapped room unless she needs the features of the accessible room. People assume they are close to everything, but they are actually spread out all over each resort. So, no more likely to be close to the main area than any other rooms.

I would suggest not requesting a specific room because chances are good that room may not be available - and with 2 rooms, they may give you that particular room, but not have another close by.

What is most important to you to be close to? The main area, buses, pool?
I would suggest requesting close to that, whatever it is and making that your first request.
If both rooms are on 2 separate reservations, make sure you link them so that they know you a traveling together.

With the ECV, she will be able to get all over the resort, so location may not be as important as you are thinking.

Thanks! I didn't know if avoiding the elevator was something we should try for?

Do you mean should you ask for first floor so you don't need to use the elevator?

Or, be away from it so you don't hear elevator noise?

I mean so we don't have to use elevator, wondering if we will fit in with a duke stroller and an ecv

Just ask for ground floor for medical reasons.
