Garden Suite at the Boardwalk Inn

[eclipseSD]

We have booked a Garden Suite at the Boardwalk Inn for July. I have seen the pics at Our Laughing Place and WDWIG.

Has anyone stayed there, and if so, how was it?ae

Things I would like to know:

Distance from Concierge
Floor Plan
Views
Good room #s

How exciting! Hope you enjoy it. Here are some answers for you:


Distance from Concierge: You have to walk inside the lobby and take the elevator to the concierge lounge. I'd say the walk to the main lobby from the Garden Suites is about 20-60 feet, depending on which suite you get.

Floor Plan: Sorry, couldn't find a room plan on-line. The pix at those links give a pretty good description of the layout though. The bedroom area is upstairs.

Views: They view the garden/quiet pool area. These are "behind" the Boardwalk side of the resort so there are no water views or Boardwalk views

Good room #s: There are only 4 of these units and they are all in a line. So, I'm not sure if one room number is better than another. They all have the same set-up and entrance garden area. http://wdwig.com/bwi10.jpg

Does every room have the garden with the white picket fence?

 

[Misti]

Yes, they all have the picket fence.

Has anyone stayed here?

All the website provide little info about the suite itself. One thing I would like to know is whether the outdoor entrance is the only entrance.

Could someone who has stayed here provide me with a list of the amenities offered at the garden suites?

Any help would be appreciated.

Yes the outside area is the only entrance.

Is there a washer and dryer?

Sorry this is a bit convuluted but not being terribly computer savvy, bear with me. If you go to Dreams Unlimited's Boardwalk Inn page http://198.65.141.47/resorts/bw/bw-overview.htm and then go to "Guest Rooms" and then to "Garden Suite" they have a floor plan.

There is not a washer/dryer. If you are willing to consider it, the Boardwalk Villas offers One Bedroom Villas that have a washer/dryer, kitchen, king bed in master bedroom, jacuzzi tub and living room. These are regular units and would not carry the concierge benefits/amenities found with the Garden Suite. There are pix at the links you have.

Hopefully, someone who has stayed recently will be able to comment. It has been years since I have seen these. With so few of them, it may be tough to find someone on the boards who can give you a review.

Good luck!
