Just Back From CR 14th FLoor Concierge

[lark]

Of all the threads I read on this board, this is the type that I suspect the folks at Disney might just take notice of, or at least would be concerned about if they knew about it.

The reality is that the customers to whom they are marketing things like the 14th floor of the contemporary are also the ones more likely to be looking here. I think it is a safe bet that this thread alone will keep many of us who were considering the 14th floor from paying the premium for it, and I suspect disney knows this if they are paying any attention. (I have to believe they have their spies here from time to time.)

Perhaps this message board only represents a tiny proportion of 14th floor visitors, and it will continue to sell out. But maybe not. I wouldn't be surprised to see some changes -- at typical disney glacial speed of course.

Oh great......I just reserved 3 nights on the 14th floor in December 2005....

We love 14 and 12.. but have been going for years and look forward to seeing Janet and Lois and of course the incredible view. We are also fairly self sufficient, not really needing any concierge services, but it have always found them wonderful and helpful.

That said, I think most guests on 14 aren't the Dis'er type.. and by that I mean disney fanatic, see it all do it all. They tend to be either larger families.. parents with several kids, and maybe even a nanny.. who get a suite for convenience. Or business type folks, there for a conference or meeting. Also, I think there are very few rooms up there (less than 20?), so it wouldn't take much to sell out.

I am sorry to hear that the rooms aren't looking so good. It would be interesting to see what they would do if they were up for rehab.

If you had repeated problems with specific cast member you should consider bringing it to the attention of their manager.
