It’s basically a refurbished regular GF hotel room. Not like the studios at other DVC locations. They look quite nice, but more comparable to a hotel room than a traditional DVC studio in terms of room amenities.
Wow. So the old studios have two bathrooms but also have less square footage than the new resort studios? I wonder if the new resorts studios feel more spacious overall than the old ones as a result.
2 showers NOT 2 toilets. Just to be clear. It's not 2 full bathrooms. Sorry huge pet peeve of mine.
What’s a huge pet peeve of yours?
It sounds like the pet peeve is when people say it has 2 bathrooms.What’s a huge pet peeve of yours?
Even if there are not 2 toilets the space of the entire bathroom area in the deluxe studio is larger than the resort studio bathroom. Hence more space in living area.
Saying there are 2 bathrooms when there are not because there is only 1 toilet. I know it doesn't bother a lot of people but it irks me to no end.What’s a huge pet peeve of yours?

Agree. It's misleading. Most people in the U.S. assume a bathroom contains a toilet.
I know. I was just repeating there was two bathrooms from what someone else said earlier in this thread. My point was there was more space created because of the 2 or 1 1/2 or 1 3/4 bathrooms in the deluxe studio over the single standard bath in the Resort studio. Pet peeve wasn’t relevant to my more space statement. Should have been directed to person who originally said two bathrooms. No biggie either way.
It annoys me to no end when you see a real estate listing that says "X full bathroom(s)" when it's really .75 bath because they replaced the tub shower with just a shower.
yeah I notice that too. We have 1.75 baths: one full, one with just a shower (not big enough for a bath/shower combo even).
I am with @tjkraz in that I have used the microwave and toaster only handful of times in 15+ stays, but not having a mini-fridge? Hmmm... I guess the plus side is that you don't have to listen to the inevitable rattling compressor noise kicking on and off in the middle of the night!
The Resort Studios have a "Beverage Cooler" which has the appearance of a mini fridge. Supposedly beverage coolers will not go any lower than 39 degrees. According to the FDA, refrigerated foods should be stored at 40 or below. There is a window for safety, but it's narrow. If you're only storing bottled water and soda, it's fine. If you want cold cuts and a small jar of mayo, well...
Not exactly, 2 showers but only 1 bathroom sink. They are not really separate rooms like Poly, they just have pocket doors That can be closed. Like Riviera.
I didn't realize this. This is actually ridiculous. There should be a mini-fridge, what reasoning could there be for having a useless beverage cooler?
