BLT rooms and views with picture links! Last update of post #1 10/21/2015

[*KeepMovingForward*]

I'm finally back to post about our room at BLT from last month.

This is absolutely stunning. I hope we have as beautiful a view.

We stayed in 7830, a 2-bedroom MK view room right next to the elevators. Loved it! Here are some pictures of our view. We were very close to the Contemporary and the monorail.

Love your pictures! really like the monrail - hope to get a monrail view.


so you could see wishes from your room - that must have been nice.

never too many pictures of BLT.

thanks

so you can see the other rooms - can you see the people - well guess so.

don't know if I would like that one.

great pictures of the pool.

can you see the EWP from your balcony or was it too far away?

You know I don't remember seeing people in their rooms much. Maybe there just weren't a lot of people in their rooms, with lights on and drapes open when we were looking out there. lol I don't know.

We were only there one night and we watched the EWP from TOTW. I think we would have had a great view of it from our room though due to or room being on that side of the C. I wonder if the Lake View rooms on the other side of the C (inside, but on the left side if you're facing it) could see it? EWP stopped sort of in between BLT and CR, at least on that night it did.

What is wrong with the north tower? What tower do you recommend?

Nothing at all - we stayed in the north tower just moved from the odd numbered side (pool view) to the even numbered side (partial MK view). We were in room 7910 and will post pix soon. Every time our DD woke up, she asked to see the castle (open the curtains) so we know we made the right decision in moving sides.

We agree with all those who have mentioned the rooms need shears. It wasn't an issue for us, but while walking across the BLT bridge at night, we could see into every room along that side and could tell what folks were watching, eating, and drinking. Can't imagine I'd feel comfortable in their rooms.

We had a lot of fun sitting in the living room watching the monorails go by. At night, my little one announced all the color changes of the castle.

Here are some pictures from Wishes we took. Some are from inside the room and some are from the balcony.

We also saw a beautiful full rainbow one day over Bay Lake. We went to TOTW to take pictures of it.

Glad you enjoyed them! Thank you so much for the map as we never would have thought to ask to switch rooms had it not been for this thread. In fact, we've taken the waitlist for MK view off our next reservation and just asked for a similar room as this trip.

Loved looking at everyone's pics. Will post my own when we make our next trip

We were in a standard studio on the first floor. We were right near the bocci ball courts and could see the pool from the patio.

This is the view from a higher floor elevator lobby...

This is the view from the walkway bridge.

Great pictures everyone!

There sure are a lot of rainbows there, huh? I added my own rainbow pictures to the bottom of my post (more pictures from me, lol):

Work2play. This is a great thread. Thank you for putting the time into this. From what I can tell there are no reports of a MK view room below the 7th floor. Is that a correct assumption / interpretation? What do you make of a reported 3rd, 4th or 5th floor MK view?

First - Thanks Work2play for the great information. Used the map at check-in to show the CM the general area we wanted to be in, she pulled out her map and into the back she went.
Next - She emerged and asked if 7514 would be alright for our standard view studio. "Alright?" (5th floor, MK and lakeview) I said, "You da bomb!"
Last - Aside from the fact that September (followed by the other 11 months) seems to be "uncontrolled rug rats screaming everywhere" month, BLT and the studio are AWESOME!! (Just too bad some parents - aren't.)

We are here 09/20 - 25. I will attempt to post the pictures now, if that doesn't work, I'll email them to work2play.

P.S. As a few others have noted, it's quite a shame seeing all the damage already done to this place. Big scrape and chip out of the granite counter, chunk out of the table base, side of the TV counter all marked up with a piece broken out of the laminate, signs at the elevator damaged. Hopefully my increased maintenance fees will cover it!

Wow, that's terrible! I'm not a happy Geek to hear people are trashing my home!!! What is it with people these days that they don't respect anything??? ARGH.

It is kinda strange that there have been no posts for rooms XX16-XX30 on the 2nd - 5th floors. I am sure we will hear more as time goes by. I do see that we have a post for 7514 as a standard view room, and if you want an MK view, this should be a terrific room for the reduced points.

Wow! Awesome room, glad the maps helped! Be sure to get photos and let me know if you need me to post them for you! Have a great vacation!

THANKS for posting the pics Work2play!
If anyone wants pics (interior, exterior, views) or directions to our "secret room," PM me your email and I'll send them. We are here until Friday if you have a special request for a picture.
The "secret room" is because the directory for the 5th floor omits 7514, although we are here!

Maybe someone could use the secret decoder map from the first post to track it down!!

Thanks again for the great pics. Although I can see why some would want a higher floor MK view room, you clearly can see the MK from that room. I personally like the fireworks view better from the lower floor rooms, so I can't see why I would ever request a MK view room.

Just got back from BLT stay Sept 12th through 18th. We had a STD view Studio on the 5th floor (Room 7514). We could see the MK and the lake along with a loading area and the parking lot. Overall we were very pleased. Here is a poorly assembled panorama of the view.

We enjoyed Wishes and Hallowishes from our room on a couple of evenings. We tuned in the music on the TV and left the sliding glass door open to hear it on the balcony. One word of warning though, even being on the 5th floor we had an uninvited guest sneak into our room through the open door during the fireworks. A big ol' frog. My 3yo found him clinging to the wall above the TV later that night. I had to send the ladies into the hall while I ushered him back to the balcony.
