first trip home

[STEVEMED]

We are going for our first trip home in 4 days (can't wait)My only worry is all of the things I'm hearing about bwv,which is where we are staying.Such as the long walks from the elevators and the bus service.I know I will have a great time but I was wondering if anyone could give me some pointers to make it better. Thank You

Don't worry about it. BWV is a great resort. Even with some minor bus inconvience last week we still had a great trip. You really won't need to use a bus often.

Here is a link with some room reports and it will give you some view comments. The report needs to be update with the 15-20 more reports I have but unfortunately with being gone for a week, I am still digging ou my desk.

This will give you an idea of “sectional views”. It is extremely difficult to ask for a specific room (as well as trying on the CM’s). With the new room ready policy, guests have reported getting several choices at check-in and this may than help

I have also created a sheet that just has some highlights of rooms that may not work for everyones needs. You might find that helpful instead:

The files arein adobe acrobat and which can be downloaded from this site for free:

I know a lot of people complain about long walks from elevators, but I've been experiencing long hotel walks at WDW since it opened. Whether we're at an outlying building of the Poly or down one of those endless hallways at the WL, the walks are often long. (Just visit the Fontainbleu in Miami sometime!)

It's true that the walks are very short at, say, OKW where you can drive up to your room. But in the context of the deluxe hotels, the walks at the various villas are nothing special, and nothing to worry about unless someone is elderly or handicapped--in which case you should notify MS in advance about your needs.
