The 100% Original POFQ FAQ

[*Fantasia*]

I have a question, do you get the mickey soap and shampoo in the bottles here or does POFQ have those tacky dispensers like the All Stars?

You get a Mickey lotion, Mickey shampoo/conditioner, Mickey bath soap and Mickey face soap! I gave the Mousekeeper tips everyday... and she gives me tons of them everday just about! What do I do? I just take them home and use them! BTW... you might want to bring your own conditioner, the Mickey shampoo/conditioner doesn't work well... It cleans but doesn't condition.

I'll post more pixs for ya!

We moved our 2007 trip up to next June and we can't wait!!! We're SOOOO excited to stay here!!! Fantasia - LOVE your pictures! Thanks so much!

Does anyone know if there is room under the beds for luggage storage? If not, where do you normally put your bags? (We completely unpack.)

Well... would you believe it, I have stayed in bldg 5 in July and didn't take any pix of that bldg! I'm sorry... I wish I could help.

The bedspreads are so beautiful, I love them! I wonder if you can buy one from the hotel? I wonder if anyone else has done this or asked about it. I know it sounds far fetched but it is an idea!?

would you say bldg five was the optimum location? i believe that's what we requested (near pool and food court?) but don't remember... oops! if not, what bldg would you suggest, esp for two kids who think they are big enough to go fill their mugs on their own or get a head start to the pool w/out us?

If your in Building 5 you will be fine, but really the resort is so samll it easy to get from one place to another without any problem. If you check on page one of this thread there is an overhead photo of the resort and a link to the map of the resort.

Spent the weekend at POFQ building 7, river view. LOVED IT!

The resort is just lovely & we'll definitely be returning.

Hi everyone! We're finally returning to FQ after years away and I'm so excited....I love it there! We haven't been since before the remodel, and now it's my understanding that building 4 is smoking? We stayed in that building each of our other visits and love the location, so I wanted to request it again, but I don't want a stinky room. Has anyone stayed in a smoking room that didn't smoke? Was it bad? I wanted building 4

 

[edcrbnsoul]

Buliding 4 is only partial smoking I was on the third floor during my last trip (2004) in a non-smoking room had no problem with it and I despise the smell of smoke. I was in room 4344 and just to double check I went and checked the pic of us outside of our room and there is a non-smoking symbol by the door. Look just above the door handle.

Bump...We're really considering staying here next year. It would be me, dh, and kids who will be 3 and 5 at the time. Just curious- were any of your children frightened of the hanging face statues in the food court? I don't think my kids will be, but then again...
I'm going to try and read this whole thread tonight

We first stayed at FQ when DD was just under a year and again this past May (she was 3) and she has no problem with the decor in the food court. I don't have any pictures from inside the food court, but feel free to check out the ones I do have online:

LYNN'S PORT ORLEANS FRENCH QUARTER PICTURES

Our next trip in a few weeks I am going to take a bunch inside. This is by far my favorite resort. It small size is great for me since I am traveling alone with DD this time and I am very familar with the grounds. It is an absolutely beautiful and quiet place.

Good luck!

 

[studentmom]

Thanks Lynn! Great pictures of the French Quarter. Looks like you had a great time. Btw your dd is adorable!

 

[GoofyGirlnPrincessV]

Aww thanks! Hope you have a great time if you stay there!

I am just loving this faq! We have never stayed at POFQ. We usually stay in a value, but this time we're splitting up between FQ(3 nights) and Boardwalk (4 nights). I am so excited about staying at PO!

Quick question...in looking at the map, I am thinking of requesting either building 7(non smoking and close to busses) or building 2(close to pool and playground).

Anybody have any experiences with either of these? And how do I go about giving them my room requests...do I just call and have them noted on my ressies?
