Riverside - Room location help question

[madonna31]

Hello!
I am going to book 2 rooms at PORiverside for next year. We have never stayed here before. My mother is visually impaired, so we need a really good room location for walking distances.

Since I am totally unaware of the layout of this resort, could you please suggest room locations to me and why.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Here is a link for a map of the resort:

I would suggest Alligator Bayou Building 14 -- I have stayed in that building a few times and Building 15 once. Both are terrific locations with 14 being a bit closer to everything (bus stop, food court, pool, boats to Downtown).

You will enjoy it there. It is a lovely resort.

This is a beautiful resort, usually I would suggest Oak Manor or Parterre Place. But for you I think bldgs 14 or 15, Aligator Bayou would be best. Make sure a notation has been made on your reservation about a member of your party being disabled. Then you might want to fax the front desk your request, with the reasoning, about 3 days before your arrival.
The front desk has told me that they try to reserve the 14 bldg for disabled guest.

People often request building 14 for closeness to the resort center and bus stop. It is often set aside for handicapped guests so this could be a good choice for you.

Check out my website (link in my signature). On my POR page, the very last picture is a shot of the food court from building 14. I did it to give some perspective as to how close the two are.
