Linked Reservation and Connecting Rooms

[Anonomom]

We're arriving at POR in a week (yay!). My in-laws are coming to Disney, too, but have their own room reservation. When I booked, I asked for connecting rooms and they linked my reservation to my in-laws' (we were given a "link" number in addition to our separate reservation numbers). However, looking at my confirmation printout, I don't see any reference to the link or to the request for connecting rooms. They did note my other requests (nothing fancy, just asked for Magnolia Bend and bed rails for my DD).

I'm starting to get paranoid now that maybe we don't have the connecting room request in as I'd thought. I figure that at the very least, it's worth a call to check. But who do I call -- the central reservation line, or the hotel itself? I'd hate to have the request overlooked, but I don't want to be a PITA, either. Or am I overthinking this entirely and it'll all be fine?

Call the actual resort the night before you arrive. I do this for very important requests, like certain buildings and connecting rooms. I have never had a problem with my requests being met when I do this.

Its not guaranteed anyway but any notes are internal only, you wont see them at all. As long as the 2 are linked together you should be okay

Thanks. I know the request is just that, and not a guarantee. I'm not expecting connecting rooms, but I am hoping really, really hard.

When you call the resort number, you are not actually getting the resort. You reach a central phone number where they answer for the resort.

Just call now and make sure the connecting room request is still noted in the system. Other than that, you'll just have to wait until you are there. You said you aren't really expecting the connecting rooms so it's not going to be a deal breaker if you don't get it. I'd make the one phone call to central reservations and then don't worry about it until you check in.
