October 09 Roll Call!

[Sid74]

Joh, I have what might seem like a daft question for you, but please bear with me.

You said that you have stayed at OKW, I need to know what the stairs are like. I have got mobility problems, so am ok with a few stairs if they aren't too steep, so I was wondering if you remembered what the stairs where like between floors?

I need to book my DVC accommodation in the next few days, I will need a roll in shower room for my studio and hotel bookings, but I will be ok with the set up in the one bedrooms from the pictures I have seen, so I don't think I will need to request a handicapped accessible one bedroom, or an elevator building, but I have been worrying about the stairs up to the different floors of the hotel, if that makes sense?

Do you remember if they were shallow or steep?

Thanks.

The stairs are not that steep but there are quite a lot between floors. There are a couple of buildings at OKW (can't remember which ones offhand) that have an elevator - you may be as well to request one of those. If I were you, I would request a ground (1st floor) villa or one of the buildings with an elevator.

We don't need to hire one for her - she gets one herself. Just don't tell her what age I gave her or she may get a traditional chair and make me push
