Hi! We're bringing DS (18 months) for a last-minute trip. I'm thankful we found a room, but the only thing available in all of WDW for Dec. 4-Dec. 8 was an All Star value room. Now, I'm wondering where we'll squeeze DS' Pack N Play. I'm hoping there's room near the vanity area so we can pull the curtain to keep light off of him, but I'd like to hear experiences (& see pics, if possible,) from others. My concern is: if he wakes up in the middle of the night & sees us, he may not go back to sleep. Hopefully, he'll be so tired that he'll just sleep through the night. Thanks, in advance!!
 
We stayed in all star music and moved the table towards the tv and put the pack n play close to the door. We had adjoining rooms with my parents though so if it was an early night, we put DD to bed and went next door for a little. She never woke up during the night the whole trip, both our girls were exhausted each day. The outside noise never bothered her, although I did hear our neighbors going in and out some nights around midnight. Sorry no pictures to share.
 
We put it in the main room between the TV and the vanity wall, but I think it would also fit in the vanity area. It might block access to the sink though.
 
Thanks for sharing your advice! In April, when we stayed in the cabins, it was so easy to place him in the bedroom every night. It's nice to hear there's enough room in the value rooms without being cramped. I'm also happy to read that you both had good experiences. Thanks!
 

I would say it might fit in the vanity area/closet area which is kind of out of sight, plus farthest from the door so no hallway noises will wake them either.
 
The curtain that divides the vanity area from the bed area does little to nothing to block light. I have a room darkening curtain that I bring along and clothes pin to the existing curtain.
 
We tucked it in between the dresser/TV stand and the short wall back to the bathroom area. Fit nicely there with plenty of room to pass by it to get to the bathroom. We also draped a sheet over the exposed side of the pack and play so that our daughter couldn't see us if she woke up unless she stood up.
 
I used to put ours in the space between the bed and the wall to the bathroom, or right in the middle of the 2 beds.
 
I stayed at pop 3 times and always fit the pack n play between the bed and the wall to the bathroom also. As you can see, it is a bit of a tight squeeze, but it works and you won't have to be walking around it all the time. I also second that the curtain will do nothing to block light. Since I always got up earlier than everyone else, we unscrewed a couple bulbs over the vanity so that only one came on when we hit the switch, gave just enough light to get ready by without disturbing the others. Last, but not least, I highly, highly, highly recommend a white noise machine or downloading a white noise app to a smart phone.

 
Been there, done that, no more. We stay offsite for half the cost with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, all Disney themed, washer/dryer on the second floor. There is a portacrib, highchair even a stroller onsite. Really quiet gated community, for the family there is private enclosed gated pool, larger onsite pool, game room and play areas. I paid less then $600 for the week in the Fall and had so much room with full kitchen, living room, off street parking at the front door is a gem. I can't justify going back to onsite for occasional 2 hrs in the park and free parking for all the perks of staying in a home instead of 4 walls and cramped on top of each other. OH, the master bedroom has a King bed and huge bathroom. It is minutes from the parks. Along the road are great off site eating, grocery/drug store stops, you name it.
I used Windsor Hills townhouses.
