OKW bathroom entrances in Villas?

[Simba's Mom]

What's the story about 2 bathroom entrances vs. 1 in the OKW 1 BR Villas. I've gotta admit, I never really paid attention since it was just DH and myself so we only needed one entrance to the bathroom. But for Thanksgiving, DMIL is coming with us. Is the only entrance to the bathroom through the bedroom? And if that's only in certain Villas, please tell me which ones so I can try to avoid them.

I think bldgs 30 and higher have 2 entrances. The design was changed during one of the construction phases.

The original units did not have the extra bathroom door through the laundry room. That made guests have to go through the edge of the master bedroom in order to get to the bathroom.

Disney quickly discovered this and all future buildings had the extra door so guests could go directly to the bathroom by going through the laundry room.

If Doc sees this post, he can give you the exact building numbers involved, but I think ChuckS is correct that it's number 30

Chuck and Bill are right- Buildings 11-29 were the initial phase of OKW and all have access to the bathroom thru the bedroom only. The second phase (buildings 30-44) and subsequent phases (buildings 45-56 and buildings 62-64) all have a second access thru the laundry room. Buildings 62-64 are also the only ones with elevator access (to the villas -NOT the bathrooms).

(to the villas -NOT the bathrooms).

LOL. Boy, I'm glad that got clarified.

Thanks, all. So I'll ask for a building # above 30.

If your only request is "a second door to the bathroom", you should be all right.
