Hi sandiwest, my name is Sandi, too! It wouldn't let me quote you, but I also think you will be fine with the beds. The bedroom has a standard queen, and the other 2 beds are bigger than they look. We got here yesterday, and I love the room! As for the rest if this place, it better get better or I don't think my family will be back. (and we are huge fans, DH and I have done 8 trips in the last 9 years and I've been here more than 30 times!) I was all for magic bands and FP+. We aren't the type to not like change, and we just go with it, but this has been a nightmare! We got to AoA at 11:20am yesterday. I had done online check in, so I got in line. Well, they lost the online checking so we had to re-check in. NBD, it went quickly. But, then they noticed we didn't have any park tickets. It took an hour, but we got that fixed and went up to our room. It was now 12:40 and we had been there 1 hour 20 minutes in line checking in. Got up there, and our MB wouldn't open the room. Back down, waited in line. They couldn't connect me or my kids to our room, just DH. 2 hours later (2:50 if you're keeping track-so far we had been here almost 3.5 hours and done nothing but fix MB issues), and 3 calls to tech support and he fixed it. Oh, and by the way, in the process he noticed we had no park tickets (again!) and relinked those, too. Well, now it was 3:00 and the kids were starving (we planned to have lunch at noon). We went down to eat, and there were huge lines even at 3:00. We waited about 15 minutes in the pizza/myo pasta line, which was the shortest line overall. Then a CM came over and explained that they were separating the line and moving MYO pasta to a new station and making 2 additional lines-1 for pizza and 1 for sandwiches. He split everyone up, and I just happened to be first in the pizza line (everyone in front of me for the "new" lines were there for pasta.). So, he directs us up the middle, where it says "exit only" and the sandwich people up the side to the other exit, and he moved the pasta people to a new station. There were still a handful of people in the "old" line, too, so one CM helped them and 2 more went to help the "new" lines. Well, since I was first, everyone started yelling at me that I was in the exit and to get in line! I explained that the CM told me to come here and the CM at the food station explained that they were separating the line, so most people were ok. But, there was this one lady muttering about how I cut in line and thought I was better than everyone else...easy to ignore...until, I went to get our beverages. She was there, too, and I had called o we my DS 7years old to help me carry them. She opened the beverage case door and knocked my son over!! So I picked him up and then I just started crying. I was so frustrated about the day! So she starts yelling, "I DID say excuse me! And I wouldn't have done it if you hadn't CUT in line!!" DH was pissed and yelled at her, which brought a manager over ASAP. He was really nice and ended up giving us our food for free, which was totally unnecessary and I told him so at least 10 times. Okay, so now it's 4:00, and we headed over to MK. We had missed our first 2 FP+ for the day but hoped to use our third. We got there...and... any guesses??? We couldn't get in because we had no tickets (keep in mind I had already "fixed" this twice!), so we were sent to guest services. Another 40 minutes of dealing with it, and voila, we got in the gates! Now it was 5:00. Our FP was at Peter Pan so we headed there. Tried to get in, and it said we didn't have FP. I pulled it up on my phone and it was there at 4:50-5:50 but only for one guest so he let us ride, but I thought I should check on it. By this time MIL, FIL, and SIL had met us there from another hotel. I left DH with the kids and headed to guest services to see what was up with the FP. It was now 5:35pm. No line, walked right up. Took the CM a minute and....long story short all of our FP were wiped out for the entire week!! She started trying to rebook what we wanted and I was trying to remember everything, but the system kept crashing (she said due to FP opening for SDMR, actually), so she was having trouble. At 7:00pm, an hour and a half later, she gave up. She wrote down which park we were going to each day and assigned us generic FP for that park. She also gave us an extra each day, which was really nice. By now, I had spent the whole day in line, though, so we missed a whole day of vacation, but it was fixed. Well, I just got up now and looked at
MDE. She assigned them to the wrong park every single day!! I'm not kidding, so we have no usable FP still for the week, (we are here with family and have meals booked so it's tough to just switch parks). So now I'm headed down to see how much of day 2 I spend in line. DH and I are both ready to go home, so if things don't improve today, we will be seeing what we can do to just get out of here. I doubt we will be back, but maybe in 5 years or so after they fix their crappy system. I'm just thinking about our family riding Soarin now and how we can't be with them! Anyway, only partially related to AoA, but that's the story! Our room rocks! Cars, Luigi building, 2nd floor overlooking the lake. The buses were great to/from MK. The CM are very helpful but not very knowledgable on the new tech stuff. The food court was great (aside from our issue with a guest) but very crowded at a no meal time. Happy to answer any AoA questions if I can.
. I'm so sorry you've had such an awful start; hope you eventually get to use your FP+. I'm also really glad you took the time to write this out in detail, because it really gets the point across HOW frustrating and un-magical it is to pay full price to be included in a huge test, with really no compensation for time wasted. I really think you should send the whole account--in that level of detail--to Disney. I know they've probably got a lot of overworked employees right now, but they need to really understand the amount of people's' hard-earned vacation dollars AND time they are wasting. Glad you like AoA (we did too) and hope the good times stack up to outweigh the bad by the end
