Disney Boardwalk Villas- Deluxe Studio Room

[Disneygirls4life]

(Note: this is my first post so hope I posted it in the right spot... The whole set up of the disboards is still rather confusing for me...

1. So according to the information I have received from my friend (who's parents are DVC members) We will be staying in a Deluxe Studio Room. (since the fancier rooms were already booked up) So my main question is: Does anyone know what size of fridge we should be expecting? I know it definitely won't be a huge normal size fridge, but not sure if it will be like mini fridge sized that can hold only 12 cans or a small fridge that could hold 24 cans) Does anyone have any guesses or prior experiences for what kind of fridge we should be expecting in a pretty standard disney room? I don't want to end up buying 2 gallons of milk and realize. I'll have to throw one gallon out....

2. Also since her parents aren't even going to be present (since they booked the room for us) are we going to have trouble "getting the rights" to stay in the room by ourselves since my friend will have no evidence that her parents are indeed the Disney Vacation Club property card holders? Literally EVERYTHING that I see online (at least for DVC member discounts/perks) says that you must have the DVC card Member present. So does that mean we might even have problems just trying to stay in the room too?

It will have a counter height fridge.

As long as your names are on the reservation, you will have no issues getting checked in and into the room.

We stayed at the Boardwalk in March and the fridge was small. The pizza box from the pizza window downstairs would not fit until I removed shelf. I am not sure a gallon of milk would fit without removing a shelf. The fridge is an under counter style. We rented points and received no DVC discounts, but had no problem with the reservation because it was in our name. You will love the Boardwalk.

I will hold a 2 liter on the door I believe and I know for sure it will hold a half gallon of milk on the door. Be sure to make sure it is running when you get in room and dial is set correctly.

Only DVC members are eligible for DVC discounts.

What would probably be a good setting to put the fridge on? It seems like (at least for our family) we have the worse of luck with the hotel fridges and our food always seems to always end up freezing easily in those small fridges. I'll probably want to store some lettuce/carrots, apples and sandwich meat in the fridge too, but would hate for it to freeze on me -__-
