We own at Boardwalk but needed a last minute weekend trip so got into SSR.
Check in was OK. We were in a 2BR and it was nice.
The morning that we were supposed to check out. We left the room to go to breakfast at 8.30 am and was going to come back to get our stuff afterwards. My husband forgot the car key inside and...guess what....the room key didn't work any more (We hadn't checked out yet). We found a Bell who instructed us to use the house phone (only one available was on the ground floor) to call the front desk. The phone didn't work. We were stranded because our building was too far for my 85 yo mom to walk. We waited until the same Bell came back. He used another exclusive number to call and got the front desk. They verified my ID and he let us back in the room.
Went to the front desk and got new keys. After mediocre breakfasts we drove back to the unit and none of the new keys worked! There were 3 maids there who refused to let us in the room. They let me call the front desk again and they had to send another person to come to let us in.
We spent so much time waiting around because it was FAR from the front desk. They should be able to tell the maid our names and after showing our ID's they should be able to let us in our room?????
Needless to say, being BIG is not a good thing for SSR. I will never STAY THERE AGAIN. We love the Boardwalk where it's so close to all the restaurants and easier to get service.
This was the first time we were really disappointed at a Disney Resort. I also own at 2 other Marriotts and nothing like this happened to us before.
