We're just back from our first stay at BLT in a dedicated two bedroom and overall were very happy. We got probably one of the worst Magic Kingdom views, which still managed to be very interesting with the monorail always wooshing by out front. The units felt very spacious and were generally well laid out and showed none of the wear and tear so many have complained about. We found the decor to be soothing and tasteful rather than stark. We loved the lounge as a quiet place to hang out. The folks in the community center were so great with the kids and the pool was very kid friendly. Housekeeping delivered mountains of clean towels on towel and trash day.
I do see what the complaint about the bathroom door was. I mean, not only doesn't it lock, there's a full half-inch gap where you can seen into the bathroom. What were they thinking? It wasn't that much of a problem for us--that bath became the eight-year-old's private bath and he didn't care, but I would consider it to be unsuitable for adult use. We also found the uncomfortable furniture to be a problem--both the couch and the chair cushions kept trying to slip forward and were not at all comfortable. DH speculated it was because they had their beds made up and the extra bulk of sheets and blankets made the furniture not fit together right. In any case, we want to use the living area as a living area, not a sleeping area, and didn't find it to be comfortable for hanging out in.

I have heard the showers have brutal water pressure, and wanted to print out the comment on how to adjust the shower head water pressure. We arrive for our first trip home in 39 days!!!
