Refrigerators and microwaves ?

[caroline1851]

How much extra is it to have these in your room? Couldn't find this info on the RPR website.

thanks

I don't think there are microwaves available but the rooms have a bar fridge already.

Yeah but you have to be careful with those.Anything moved around and you can accidentally get charged for using it.They do rent fridges I can't remember the cost.I remember it isn't cheap though.

The bar is not a cold fridge, it's slightly cool. You should not use it for your personal stuff. The best thing to do is bring a cooler or stop by a store for a disposable cooler. If you have to rent a fridge they are I think $25 per night unless needed for medical purposes.

We used it with no problems but not with the intent of stocking it with meals. Just stuck some sodas, milk, leftovers, etc in it.

As a pp stated, be careful if you try to use the mini-bar for your own stuff. We have been charged twice at the HRH for items in the mini-bar and we didn't even take the key at check-in!! If you decide to use the mini-bar just make sure you check your credit card statements to make sure there are no surprise charges. They were never on the receipt that we received at check-out.

I bought a foldable lunch bag with us that would hold 6 drinks and put ice in it every morning for our waters/diet cokes/small milk that we drank in the room. It worked great!

We never had leftovers so we didn't worry about needing a fridge for those.

I didn't accept the key for the mini bar fridge and RPR put a charge for something from it on my bill but I reviewed my bill before checking out and had them remove the charge. I hate those darn things.
I bought my drinks at the pool bar. LOL

I wouldn't use the mini bar for personal use!

As others said I don't believe you can rent a microwave.....the food at the Islands dining room is WAY too GOOD to micro something while on vacation anyway.

We took a cheap styrofoam cooler and used ice from the ice machine to keep water and a few soda's cold.
