Ooh, Lactaid! Exciting for this lactose intolerant person!

So am I correct that you can get refillable mugs filled at Siestas and Pepper Market?

I am seeing the Siestas opens at 7AM - so if we ended up in Ranchos, we could still get mugs filled there in the morning... right? We usually eat breakfast in our room, but we like to be able to use the mugs if we have them... and I need a morning burst of caffeine!

We loved business class at breakfast! Hope these help.

The orange juice was so good! My dd enjoyed her bagel and I loved the fruit. Breakfast and building location is main reason I like BC. The evening is too repetitive and the wine wasn't as good as previous trip . However the food quality is good and we enjoyed a snack and beverage each night before handing to the parks .


Also one night it rained . I came in lounge at 8 pm and said I wanted to make tea in my room. So they gave me the tea bags out AND grabbed a carton of milk from the back so I could have it the way I like . Very nice!

They gave beer and wine in plastic so you could take poolside or room etc. One night we just shopped with our sangrias before heading to the park

Overall not The Grand Floridan CL but a nice add on . Saves time in morning if coffee and light breakfast works .

I have more pix to come . The nice thing is the building has great views on all sides ( no parking lot) .

So quick to bus stop ( pix later) and close to pools and El Centro .
Glad I could add it and will do again

I forget some of the beer choices but last year I know they definitely had bottles of coronas with a wedge of lime

In addition to Corona, they had Yuengling lager. (This was last month.) There were 1 or 2 other beers - possibly Bud and Heineken, but I don't remember for sure.

The Grand Floridian had that back in January 2014! Its nice some others getting it too. It really helps.

That was for the stop I was at. We didn't go to any of the others this trip.

Love the time board. Now I just wish you didn't have to take a bus to Disney springs to get to a water park. Not a big fan of being at a water park all day and then getting on a bus with people dressed to go shopping.

I've stayed BC 4 times. The beer selection was different everytime but always at least 3 choices. Always had Corona and Bud light. Sometimes Heineken or Yuengling. The variety changes because it depends on what conventions order. The beers are left over from convention hosts. Since a convention purchased them, they can not resell them. So then they end up in BC.

Good to know, I'm not picky but I'm glad it's a little bit of a variety.

Just got back a few weeks ago. They have cases of bottled water at Panchitos. In the back by the cooler. I think it was 6.99 for the case of 24 - 12 oz. bottles.

I think this is amazing considering how much they get for one bottle of water! Going in October and thinking I should order water from garden grocer, but maybe not!
Thank you all for the great info!!

We were there Memorial Day weekend. It is at all 4 stops. However it wasn't working our third day. It seemed as though the buses came every 10 minutes. The longest we waited was 15 for an Epcot at 11:30 am, so not a peak travel time.
