As promised (I didn't even notice that this room doesn't have ANY pics linked in the first post
)
This is the view from room 8130 (dedicated 2 bedroom, MK view.) It was the first room to the left after exiting the elevators on the 11th floor. The king bedroom was against the wall of the elevator lobby, bed facing the MK (but you couldn't see it.) The sleeper sofa and queen beds were facing the Contemporary. Overall we really liked the location. It was SO NICE after a long day to literally be a few steps from the elevator which also made for a short trip down to the 5th floor and across the Sky Bridge to the shops and Contempo Cafe. We also really liked being able to see the pool and Frozen fireworks. Downsides: If you're planning afternoon naps this room is not good. The ladies who do the pool activities have microphones and they are SO LOUD!!! It sounded like they were on our balcony. Also, as you can see in one of the pictures below, the loading/unloading area for the delivery trucks is right outside. So on top of the MK train whistle and the boat horns you also get the beep, beep of the trucks backing up. Lastly, and maybe someone can clue me in to what on earth this was, every morning around 5:30 am and repeatedly afterwards there would be multiple bangs that sounded like someone was dropping a metal dumpster from 100 feet in the air. It was so loud! It was also a complete bummer that we couldn't see the MK unless we were literally standing against the window in the living room or we were out on the balconies. I'm not convinced these xx30 rooms are categorized properly. I think they should be slightly less expensive and be categorized as partial MK view. All in all, though, we LOVED our stay and really enjoyed our room!

Wishes from the balcony of the bedroom with 2 queens (had to sit on the left half of the balcony or stand right at the railing which is where these pics were taken from, you can see our neighbors had Christmas lights on their railing - not zoomed.)
Frozen fireworks at DHS (zoomed and taken from the balcony of the king bedroom. Sorry, my iPhone doesn't zoom very well.)
I also have plenty of interior pictures and other info if anyone is interested!
