OKW Room Features Couple of Quick Questions

[Bama_C]

The last time we stayed at OKW was in 2019, so I have a couple of quick questions:

1. What kind of coffee maker do they have now (we were used to drip, so wondering if they've changed to k-cups)?
2. Do the bathrooms have a lighted makeup/shaving mirror?

We are traveling with my in-laws and my MIL needs a lighted mirror.

Thanks!

When I was in a 1-bedroom last year, they were using a drip machine only - not a dual drip//k-cup as in some places.

Both sides of the bathroom vanities did not have a directly backlit mirror, nor the flip out lighted makeup mirrors...they only had overhead lighting directly over the mirrors. The light is pretty bright, and is very close to the mirror and just above, so for general grooming, makeup, etc it should work pretty well - but if you need an actual ring-type mirror with lighting around it facing outward...I don't think you;ll have one there.

Just got back. Still a basket-style drip coffee maker, and no makeup mirror.

Thanks so much for the response on this. That is kind of what I figured. I believe they refurbed those rooms last in like 2018-19, so it's been a minute. But you never know about the things like coffee makers... they can change those without much fanfare.

Super information! Thanks so much. Do you know if they leave the Joffrey's packets (coffee inside sealed filter) like they used to for each day?

There was a basket of coffee and supplies, I didn’t notice how much since we have an Owner’s Locker with a Keurig and pods.

It is Joffreys and they leave you a few regular and decaf. You can always ask housekeeping for more of the type you need.

Thanks for the information about the coffee maker, even though it's not what I'd hoped. DS drinks regular coffee, and I drink decaf, and the k-cup works better. Looks like one of us will have to "give", since it seems we can only drink one kind of coffee. And since DH is VERY particular about his coffee, I'll be drinking caffeinated coffee all week.

Ask housekeeping for a second coffee maker.
