We just got in this afternoon. The worst part was ME picked us up at 3:15am (2:15 our time) for our 6:00 flight.
Still recovering. Our first 5 nights we were in 261 a dedicated, nonsmoking studio room at BCV. View was of the service road. We were spoiled after getting a pool view our first stay, but I prefer not to make requests and just take what I get. I was surprised that the road noise really didn't bother us and we were right across from the elevator. I was convinced that BCV was going to be our favorite from now on. We are huge pool people and spent every afternoon enjoying the sun. We also loved the new Marketplace with the self serve mug station and the easiness to Epcot. Then we moved over to BWV for our last 5 nights which was surprisingly simple. We had packed the clothes we were wearing during the latter part of the stay in a separate suitcase and also put everything we had worn in a dirty clothes bag. We had very few clothes items to repack and threw the nonperishable groceries into the empty suitcase. We planned a water park on moving day so we were not in a rush to get out. We walked over and checked into BWV before heading out to TL. We returned about 3:15 and the room wasn't ready until about 4:15. We looked through the shops and restaurant menus then hung out on the porch till we could get in the room. We were in 1105 a standard, nonsmoking, dedicated 1 bedroom. I wasn't sure that I would like being on the ground floor, but ended up really liking the convenience of getting to the BW, pool, community hall and bus stop. DH and DD got confused after coming from the lobby and tried to enter 2105 one night, but realized the error pretty quickly.
We loved BWV again. The access to the BW activities was wonderful and DD enjoyed renting DVDs from community hall. 10 days was perfect. We had a very relaxing time and have decided to continue to split our stays between BCV & BWV. Both rooms were in great shape and we were very pleased. Let me know if you have any questions.
