Faxing Room Requests?

[jana616]

When we went on our last trip, back in 2009, it was suggested to fax your room request to your resort ahead of time. We did this with our stay at Pop Century, and had great luck getting everything we wanted. (We also did online check-in as well). Is this still something people do? We are staying in Sports and would like a quiet room, top level, in the basketball section, hopefully ready by noon.

Thanks!

Most of the fax numbers have been disconnected. So just call Disney and add your requests to your reservation.

I agree. Call and have your requests added to your reservation. I heard that a lot of resorts were tossing any faxed room requests because they were just too numerous to keep up with.

I've always had any room requests added to my reservation over the phone and only once did I get assigned a room that wasn't what I requested. The front desk person was kind enough to switch my room to the area I requested but she seemed a little put off because the room that they had given me was an upgraded water view rather than a standard view. Unfortunately it was in an area of the resort that I didn't want, even if it did have a better view. This was on a solo trip where I didn't have plans to be in my room much, but I did want to be close to a specific bus stop.
