We had a BL view and we were dead center in the middle of the building on the 14th floor. We were also chosen as family of the day at check in (what a surprise) and we had access to the 12th floor club level (at the CR) all week
It was great to have the best of both worlds--club level ammenities, and a 1 BR at BLT. We loved the view. I was hoping for a partial MK view, but with the pixie dust we got at checkin, I didnt want to push it and ask for another room.
We thougth the crowds were kind of crazy at times throughout the parks, but the line wait times were not bad. We grabbed fast passes in the am, and saved them for later. If there was a 30 min wait time, we didnt wait. Mostly we saw about 20 mins (except for Soarin, TT, TSM, and Space Mtn). During the middle of the day I believe I saw some 40 min at BTMRR and 30 for Splash. We didnt even need our fast passes in the evenings on some days as the standby like was a walk on too. Soarin had 55 min waits and TT was 50 mins. On our AK day, (Fri) we rode EE 3 times in a row about 20 mins before closing. We just walked right on and got off and headed to the line again--no wait. We could have ridden it a 4th time, but my stomach couldnt take it.
I followed TGM's advice for best parks and found it to be pretty accurate. On our arrival day (Sat the 15th) and our departure day (Sat the 22nd) the MK was crazy busy. We didnt get much done, but werent in the parks long as we were arriving and leaving those days. They were yellow TGM days, but the rest of our days were green and lovely. I would think that this week would be much crazier since Memorial day is at the weekend. I would probably go the first week in May.
