We absolutely love Saratoga Srpings - the look of the resort, the location, the bus service, all of it. Maybe it would be great to overlook Magic Kingdom, but we really love being close to Downtown Disney. This is our second trip, and we stayed in room 1107. We walked out a back door and were pretty darn close to the walkway to Downtown Disney. We were on the first floor, which we liked. I wish that we could have left our room from the balcony. We woudln't have to go to the parks, but a lot of times DH took the girls to the pool and that would have been much closer.
I loved having the washer and dryer in our room. It was great to do a load of laundray everyday when we returned from the parks. The kitchen was pretty much wasted on us, but the refrigerator was really nice to have.
This is the second time we have ordered water to have delivered to the resort through Staples, and this is the second time that Saratoga Springs has lost it. This time it only took until the end of day two to find it. Last time we received it at the end of our trip. I don't understand why this is an issue, as I hear of many people doing this. I put every piece of information I can think of on our label, except hold for lady who will be crabby if you lose her water again. I also don't understand why it's an issue when I present them with a shipping paper they don't just give me water. For them, it's costing very little money. It didn't really cost me that much. I ordered it for the convenience of having it. If you lose it, replace it.
Because this is something that I "own" I look was probably more critical of this resort then I am of other hotels/resorts I stay at. Next month when I return I will be taking family with me. I am very prideful of all of Dsney World, but especially of Saratoga Springs and my "home". Our last visit, I thought our room was perfect. This time, I noticed a few things. One of those things was pen marks on the chair - all over the chair. If I owned that chair, I would have purchased something to take care of that stain. There was paint chipped off of baseboards at places, and there was a scratch of paint off the refridgerator. These were all minor things and easy to take care of. The biggest thing was the microwave. It was dirty. And, not only that, but the panel was on upsidedown. While it doesn't hurt the use, it just looks like someone was lazy and didn't care. I even took a picture -
Why????
Again, overall we loved the resort. We love DVC and don't regret buying at all. In fact, we talk very often about buying more points. It was a wonderful relaxing vacation. The weather was perfect.
