Is there a map of the Grand California Hotel?

We are off on Friday!
We have reservations at the GCH and would love some advice on which part of the hotel to request. I know there must be better locations over others. Best to stay the closest to the park entrance or Down Town Disney.
Anyone have any opinions on this I'd love to hear.
I was trying to find a map (like the one's the give you when you check in) but haven't found one online.

It really depends on what your preferences are. For my family, we very much prefer staying in the part of the hotel that is above the lobby/check-in desk since it's easy and quick to get to and from the room. For our stay last August we were initially assigned a bunkbed room that was somewhere way in the bowels of the hotel over the Napa Rose and then a few long, confusing turns down the hallways. We switched to a 2Q/daybed room overlooking the valet in front of the hotel and were much happier.

Like I said, it all depends on a number of factors like which view you want, what bedding configuration you want, etc....

If you have any light sleepers in your group, I would recommend staying away from the rooms that overlook Downtown Disney. Music is broadcast/played in DTD throughout the day and late into the evening. Although the sound is muffled when the balcony door is closed, you can still hear it in the room.

However, if noise is not a problem for you, the DTD-facing rooms have the best view of fireworks.

The quietest room I ever had was the one that overlooked the Brisa Courtyard. Although the monorail goes through the courtyard, there aren't any noise problems. I also liked the two times my room faced the main courtyard with the pool.
