Is close to bridge an option at online check in? I'm wondering if close to transportation would be a good option to get close to the classic hall. I want first or second floor but I don't know if it's worth choosing that one as one of my two requests.
sorry, I don't know. we have never done online check in. I always make my reservations on the phone, and give my 3 requests then. we check in early, and when they show us where the room is (OR the "general area", if the room isn't ready yet) if we don't like it we say "got anythig else?"
I DO think "close to transportation" would be covered by paying for a preferred room. the preferred rooms are those closest to the food court, etc.
although the 90' sbldg. is close to the buses, if you walk across the parking lot.
some advice I have heard. if ONE request is REALLY important, don't do any others. you have 3 requests. if, say 1st floor is important to you, and you list it as your 1st request. then you want 50's section. then, maybe lake view.
you could get 4th floor, building 3 lake view. they have honored 2 of your 3 requests. but your most important one wasn't honored. try to make it as simple as possible.
even with online check on, when you get there, ask where the room is. you can always ask for a dif. room if you want. doens't hurt to ask.
for some people taking a room that is available right then and there is important. (they have little kids who need a nap, whatever)
for us, 2 adults, we would rather wait for a room more to our liking, than take one that is ready now, but we don't like ,, for example parking lot view)
