Boardwalk Resort room location best for older folks

[emalone]

Staying in a one bedroom villa pool/garden view in June and would like to know what room numbers is better for older folks? Would like to be near lobby/transportation/elevators. Luna pool view would be great too. Any info would be helpful. PICS OF THE POOL WOULD BE AWESOME TOO
THANKS

I would simply request "close to elevator, view of Luna Park pool". If you put a specific room number and that room is already occupied, the resort won't know why you requested that specific room. By giving them an idea of where you would like to be located, it opens up more possibilities of the various rooms on every floor that could suit your needs. There is only one bank of elevators for Boardwalk Villas, so being close to the elevator will put you closest to the lobby and transportation as well.

Agree with @Marthasor above. I'd be sure to request to be near elevators. The hallways at BW can be very long!

Just to add the lobby is located on the 2nd floor as the front drive is elevated as you drive up to the Porto Corniche (covered entrance).

The resort bus stop is down hill from the entrance (no steps). The Boardwalk pool areas, Friendship boats and walkways to Epcot and DHS are located on the 1st floor on the Crescent lake side of the resort.

We always request higher floor and near elevators. It always seems to work out for us. We learned our lesson one time. We didn’t request anything and were put in a room on the first floor on the boardwalk next to jellyrolls.
