There are a couple other threads documenting the journey. Things have been refreshed but not a TON of changes. Biggest part is the installation of murphy beds instead of the sofa couch.

5th Floor is complete.
4th is being worked on.
1-3 are open and haven't been refurbed.

Confirmed changes:
Murphy bed replaced sofa bed
New Curtains
New Carpet
Fresh Paint
Reupholstered Chairs
Shampoo/Conditioner/Bodywash installed on shower walls
New Donald inspired art on Murphy Bed outside and inside
New Hallway Carpet

Someone online posted pics of a dedicated 2 bedroom on the 5th floor. Same changes as a studio although it looked like the art on the Murphy bed was different on the outside. No pics of it down.

That's strange. So no lounge side to the murphy bed and they squished a new chair in between the murphy bed and dining table? Odd new configuration.

Ouch, that is reading very old folks home to me, I hope it's better in person. The Poly flip is just gorgeous.

Yea I am not sure if that is where the chair normally is or if the person moved it there temporarily. It does look like they had the coffee table and other chair moved so the murphy bed could come down.

Ah yes, although where would it go since there is a sitting chair in the corner that normally would have it? I wonder if they might have moved it out of the bedroom to clear space for an air mattress or something. A mystery for sure.

I think BCV is going to remain a casualty of the dumbed down theming in it's last full refurb until a full refurb is done. PVB still had it's original theme to follow.

I wondered the same. If it came out of a bedroom for more sitting space in a 2 bedroom.

It is a shame as it wouldn't take A LOT of punch things up. The new hallway carpet is fun and bolder. I wish they would have made the headboards for the beds a bigger statement like a rattan tall headboard and reduced the amount of generic art/mirrors for more Disney touches. It is the finishings that are missing.

I don't hate the refresh, just wanted to punch it up a bit.

It's the Villas, not the hotel side.
