I am meeting up with family at POP. Two separate reservations with same dates but different arrival times. Where is a good place to meet up for people who are at POP for the first time? I don't want anyone to get lost!!

Thanks in advance!

Got here last night late - about 11:45pm. Online check-in went quickly and got my request for ground floor 50's. Got building 2. No fridge at all. Room seemed a little worn and didn't seem super clean... Maybe it was just a long day - but I wasn't feeling it. We didn't unpack and I went to the front desk this morning and they were able to move me to a room that was ready. Same 50's section, but building 3. Had the 'pop' feel I was expecting!! The transition was super easy - the concierge just made a call and since my husband was still in the room, they deactivated my KTTW and MB's for the old room, and switched over to my new room. I even swiped my MB's there with the CM and he could tell the transaction worked. Nice!

New room has old bedding but new fridge! Had brought a soft-side cooler just in case. The resort is buzzing! The parking lot around the 50'a was PACKED last night. Looking forward to a great week!

We checked in today. 50's, Bldg 3, 4th floor with old bedding and no fridge. Called housekeeping as I was instructed to do at check in if there was no fridge when we got to the room. Made the call at 2:45 and was told no problem they would bring one. At 4:15 I called back to housekeeping back to check and was told no rooms on the property had fridges. If I had a medical need, maybe they could get me one, if it was just for food, bell services could hold food for me. I requested a manager call me back and then called the front desk. I did receive a return call and was told I was on the list for a fridge and I would receive it tonight. She also stated that was a lie about no rooms having fridges.

How accurate are they usually? I'm hoping "very"...I'm loving the forecast for the 19th-25th! Yes, some rain, but no blazing heat & humidity. I would love that!!
