I didn't have high expectations, but I sure didn't expect my shoes to stick to the bathroom floor when we walked in. Someone must have spilled a coke or something really sticky. At that same time Mom was in the kitchen and found all the water in the floor. I'm not talking a puddle, it was like an inch deep in water. I called housekeeping and shortly after that a man with a clipboard and a mousekeeper both showed up. The man apologized but the mousekeeper was trying to argue her case. She insisted that the room was cleaned well by her and basically acted like I was lying. She then proceeded to enter the bathroom and I can hear her shoes slurping and slapping on that sticky floor. She takes a washcloth from the wall and wets it, then pathetically wiped the floor a bit. I asked if she had a mop or some sort of spray cleaner. Something that sticky needs some sort of spray, believe me I'm the mother of two teenagers, she acted very offended but went and got some spray. I guess she was upset because the man with the clipboard was obviously reviewing the job she did (or didn't do) cleaning our room before we arrived. I never like to cause problems but gee whiz we just needed a mop, heck I would have cleaned it myself if it was that big of a deal.
Then a man came about the non-working Magic Bands. Luckily I had my AP band with me and that one was working fine. But neither Mom's or my band would open the door. He was also grumpy and unpleasant. Asked if we wanted to take them back to the lobby ourselves or if he had to do it I kindly asked if he would take them because we had just arrived from hauling all our luggage and groceries to the room. Mom said "He sure doesn't have the Disney spirit". I then reminded my Mom that she wanted a value resort and I guess this is all the friendliness we can expect. I don't know though, because I've had tons of nice stays at Pop Century, otherwise I wouldn't keep going back there over and over again.
We are off to Sea World!!!!
