Sorry guys having trouble posting my reply. We inquired about the additional price to upgrade at checkin. One reason I think it may have been so cheap is because we had ressies for a courtyard view in which we did not request. The front desk told us it would be $40 at first but then went in the back and told us $35. Who could resist. I would definitely try at checkin not before, too pricey! As with all things Disney, it's never a guarantee.
Now the room and food. Typical 2Q bed rm. The only extras were a no charge fridge and turn down service with mints on your pillow. My 23mon DS thought that was great. We did however request the MK side. Great view of fireworks but don't look down. We overlokked the Smokehouse/Serv.area.
The food was out from about 7am until 10pm. Starts with cont. type breakfast of bagels, swt. rolls, cereal in the bowl, milk, fruit, juice. The coffee and hot water for tea stayed out . Nice variety of teas. They had either to go cups or reg. cups and saucers. Following was snack type items of gummy worms, pretzels, mixed nuts, cookies, juice, and water in a glass bottle. Next, was 3 wines and assorted cheeses,an appetizer(varied nightly), corn chowder and water. ONe we had were BBQ shrimp. They were some of the biggest shrimp I'd ever seen.Next theyhad desserts of fruit tarts.brownies, cheese cakes etc. At one of the times there were pbj roundwiches and sodas I just can not remember when.Definitely worth it if you can be there to enjoy all the goodies. We finally just started grabbing things and saving them for later. We also wished the coffee stayed out longer.
Hope this helps!!!!!
