The last time we stayed at POFQ was 11 years ago. Since it’s such a small resort, does room category make a huge difference? Do you find river view louder than garden view?
Just got back - stayed Sept 13 - 20 - first time River View. Stayed twice before in Garden View. There wasn't a huge difference. I didn't notice this stay being more noisy than previous stays.
I was in building 6. Perhaps you would hear the boat horn more in Building 2 or 5. If you are very sensitive to noise you might want to go for Garden View just to be safe.
We just stayed in a River View Building one, third floor. I think I heard the boat horn one time. Other than that, I thought it was really quiet. The view was very pretty but I'm not sure if it is necessary either way.
