Well...this is a long story. SOOOOO....i was going to book a GV at the polynesian with the 4/3 deal....i had to wait till tomorrow morning ( 15th ) because thats when i get paid, and i can make a NICE down payment. Well, I looked tonight and GV at the poly is booked! Only one avail is theme park view.which i really can't afford right now.. So i decided to look at the GF and low and behold they have some GV with the 4/3 deal avail! that being said:
Ive never stayed at the GF. EVER! I've had the opportunity, but have always chosen the Contemporary or the Poly. I have read through this thread and have seen lots of ideas on rooms and stuff.
My DH and I are going. My DH first visit to disney ( so i want it to be special) and my birthday! WE are going this June.
So, my question is. with GV what building should i request? I don't want to get stuck with a Parking lot view in the Sago building, but like the idea of the marina view. Also i wouldn't mind looking at the monorail and the poly too. Please please help me decide what to request. should i do it when we get there? Should i put in my ressy that its' my bday and its my DH first disney trip???? I've got sooooo much on my mind!anyways...Thanks for your help everyone!!!!

There are very few GV rooms that are not desirable. That is why the room category is called Garden View and not Standard View. Most rooms will overlook a garden, one of the pools or the marina (not to be confused with the Seven Seas Lagoon- that is a separate booking category called Lagoon View) If by chance you get an undesirable dumpster view, feel free to ask to be moved.
I simply request marina view and leave it at that. When we check in, I even ask at that time if we have a marina view and if we do not, I POLITELY ask if one is available.
Have a fun trip!
