I just booked a package with free dining at the Boardwalk Inn, in a Standard room, for Thanksgiving week. We are a party of 5 (2 Adults, 3 Boys: 17, 14, & 10) The Disney website shows an option for 2 Queen Beds and a Day Bed. When I booked the reservation with the Disney CM, she told me that it was 2 Queen Beds and a Child Size Trundle bed that pulled out from under the Queen Bed and that they don't suggest using it for anyone over 9. I explained what I had seen on the website and the pictures I have seen here on the boards showing it as a twin size Day Bed. She told me that was wrong and she would report that the website needed changed. :confused3 She told me that if that wouldn't work, I could request a roll away bed, if they were available. Can someone who has been to the BWI recently, in a Standard Room with the 2 Queen Beds and a Day Bed option please tell me what's really in there? Is it only big enough for a small child or will a very tall 10 year old, or even better a really tall 14 year old, fit on it comfortably? If not, is there enough room for a roll away bed?
 
I think you have spoken to a misinformed CM. We have stayed at BWI twice and we had a daybed that I fit on, I'm 5'3". Since the renovation, it looks like the daybed was switched with the couch that folds down flat to make a twin size bed, like the one we had when we stayed at the GF. I was able to fit on that one too with my DS.

Here's a picture of it from allears:

I agree with the pp that the CM is mistaken. We haven't stayed at BWI but I do know people who have and it is a (twin size) daybed and not a trundle bed.

We stayed in a studio last yr and we had a Queen bed, a queen size pull out sofa and the day bed which we ended up using as a luggage rack. The daybed was mattress was the size of a crib mattress. A child could sleep on it but unless an adult was skinny and preferred fetal position it would never work. DD slept on the pull out sofa.

I think the CM was referring to POR not BWI. The website wasn't wrong, she was.

That is BWV, not BWI. The sleeper sofa is double sized, not queen sized in a studio (except for the new GFV).

That's not a daybed, it's a padded storage bench not meant for anyone to do anything but sit on.

Um, I don't want to argue but it had bedding on it and was clearly meant to be a bed. It was just too small for a grown up.

Yep, it is a small bed, about crib sized. Sheets are on the bed under the cover.

Oops - obviously I'm thinking of something else :lmao:
