Well I'm back! We had a great trip and just wanted to let you all know how it went. We stayed at the All Star Movies. There was some confusion checking in... DH and I were traveling with another couple and a friend (2 other rooms). When we made the reservation, we all made sure they made a note of that. We requested Toy Story, which I know they can't always accomodate. But they put DH and I in Dalmations, and our friend in Toy Story! Luckily, they were able to change it and she got a room a few dorrs down from us. We had an early flight last Saturday, so our room wasn't ready yet when we first arrived. They held our luggage for us, and we went to DTD. We were given a card to call to get our room assignment...I wish I still had the card- but when we called the number, it just kept ringing! I called the main operator, who transferred me to the front desk, who was then able to give me our room number. We were then able to go back to our room, and all of our luggage was there. We paid an extra $10/night for a refrigerator, we weren't too happy with the quality. I mean it worked and all, but was very small and was all scraped up... just not pretty to look at. We didn't have any major problems, the busses worked out well, we had to stand a few times but they came regularly. Our phone stopped working mid-trip. I tried using the other couple's room to call and let them know, and it took 10 minutes for the person to understand...Our friend who was down the hall had a problem getting into her room 3 times, her key didn't work. 3 times she called the desk, and they tried telling her no one can help her for 30 minutes! And one of these times it was 1am... very frustrating. They kept transferring her to voicemail. Anyway, when we left, they held our luggage again while we did some last minute shopping, since we didn't have to leave for the airport until 3pm. Overall, it was a good place to stay for the money we paid. I used the code and paid $79/night, I don't know if I would pay more than that though! I see why some people didn't like the rooms, they are very cheesy looking.... but we didn't care, we were just sleeping there! Oh and the food court was pretty good also. Loved the refillable mug!!
