Is this a good spot for AKL?

[experiment626mom]

I called today and requested Ostrich Trail for our Standard room view today. Can ano\yone tell me if this will be a good spot? I understand that Giraffe is by the bus stations and I wanted a little more quiet. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

We were on the Ostrich Trail last month. 5th floor, room 5115 to be exact. Avoid THAT room and also 5113-5111 (I think). Those rooms (and probably some others, I only know about these ones...) have a solid wall for the balcony...they are near the port-cochere. We didn't expect a Savannah view since we booked standard, but we also didn't expect a solid wall balcony. That was disappointing and UGLY.

liznboys is right about those rooms on the 5th floor. We were in 3 of them until we asked to be moved. Even the CM at check in didn't know there were any rooms without open balconies in the lodge. LoL We were moved to the 3rd floor (lobby level) of Ostrich Trail and the rooms were wonderful. We were right by the handicap parking but there was alot of bushes and trees in between so we couldn't really see the cars. It was very quiet and extremely convienent from the bus stop. We even had complimentary turn down service every night without requesting it. We fell in love with AKL.
