I'm totally jealous here. My 13 year old ds asked the other day when we could go back to THV's. We loved it there.

You will get enough towels for the maximum limit of guests in the room you are assigned to, i.e. studios get four (4) sets, and so on.

There is a garbage/trash depository on every floor. It will be marked by a small sign by the door. The door will be unlocked.

Towels are available in large quantity at the pools. They will be either in free standing kiosks or reachable through a service window in the nearby laundry.

You will find SSR a delight! Have the kids search out the hidden Mickeys. With three pools with kids play areas, along with a great quiet pool at Congress Park, swimming will be cool (literally, in December!) the Hot Tubs are HOT, and relaxing - don't miss them.

And try your hand at one of the many rockers around the property. Grab one, hold on, and rock your cares away!

Thank you, I was having trouble finding space for 6 pool towels. I hope that we do get Congress Park, it sounds like a great location, and I love that there is a quiet pool near.

The kids love looking for Hidden Mickeys. I laugh when they look for them even when we are not in Disney. Only 3 more days, I can't wait to get to SSR!!!!!!

Are you DVC? If so, here is what we did for our past two trips.

For our SSR trip last December, I called MS and requested Grandstand. I checked in online, and we got Grandstand.

For our VB/AKV/BLT trip in June, I called MS and requested a room near an elevator for DH's back problems and easier access to the smoking area for DMIL. I checked in online, and my request was honored at all three resorts.

We are DVC members (since Feb). Thanks for your reply.

Afer readin the thread I realise requesting a room would be a good idea.

DH called yesterday to pay our balance but he had no idea where to ask for so said near the food court,bus and pool !!!

Is this even possible ?

If the CM is doing their job and knows the resort, they would have entered "The Springs" for your desired area.

This is our 2nd time staying at SSR even though it's our home resort. We are staying in a grand villa and soooooo incredibly excited to do. We stayed in the Grandstands last year (as we requested). This year we requested to stay in the Springs so that we could be closer to both of the theme pools. We will also have a car.

My question is, have you ever NOT gotten what you requested at SSR?

The Springs is a fine area, close to all of the hub bub . . . . .

Yes, but we have never been disappointed with the alternative offering.

If you want to be by the main pool, food court, community hall, then yes, the Springs is a good choice. There are multiple bus stops at SSR, with the last one being the Springs for travel to the parks. The bus may be a little more crowded when you get on, depending on your travel dates.

We've been then and it wasn't a problem. I remember the buses at the value resorts. The most packed SSR bus never looked like that. If you are worried, you can always walk/ bus to DTD and catch a bus there to a theme park, but we never had a bus too filled in the morning at SSR.
