Opinions needed please!

We are staying at CBR with FD and GC 11/25-12/3. We were planning on going down on 11/23 and doing a split stay at POR but have now decided to just leave Thanksgiving night in order to spend Thanksgiving with the in-laws. Here's where I need your help please!

We are thinking about switching to CBR since we will only have a few hours at POR and won't really have a chance to enjoy the resort. My DH lived in Lake Mary for a few years and wants to show us around a bit before we head to WDW. We are also having dinner at Homecoming which doesn't leave much time at the resort. We are also thinking that since we're staying at CBR for the rest of the trip already being on location would make switching rooms so much easier. So what would you do enjoy POR just to have the experience or CBR for easiness.

CBR for the easiness, and with a little bit of luck, you can request to keep the same room for both reservation

I would do CBR and try to book the same room category you have for your FD package. That way, when you check-in for your first reservation, you can mention you have a continuing stay and will lessen your chance of even having to switch rooms at the resort.

Thank you! I think the possibility of not having to switch rooms has sealed the deal. Should I do online check in for the second one then or would that lessen the chances of getting the same room?

CBR for the convenience

I would stay in the same category room at CBR for easiness. I would check in at the front desk for both, mentioning the two reservations and each time requesting to stay in the same room.

Good luck!
