very disappointed in room at bwv

[crzy4dals]

We just got back from BWV adn LOVED it - except the walk to the room. We had a 1 bedroom 4129 for four nights and then moved into a studio 4060 (short walk) for one night.

We loved the one bedroom and thought that going to the studio we would be disappointed. NO we loved the studio also.... much bigger than I thought. PLUS we had the Luna Pool view in the studio !!!!! LOVED it.

The way I look at it is they have to do maintenance sometime. They were touching up the paint on the doorways on our floor while we were there. I was glad to see it. Like Carol said we went to the pool several days and never felt it was unkept.

Hope your next trip is magical.

I guess a big difference in living in Chicago as to living in Florida is:
I'll take a "bad room" in WDW over any room in Chicago in the middle of winter. I'll take "pixie dust" over snow, cold & wind any day, anytime.
It never ceases to amaze me that millions of people flock to "the happiest place on earth" and at any given time you can see children having total meltdowns, adult couples fighting with each other in front of everyone, parents yelling at their children all in the name of "we're on vacation" Vacation from what??
I'm sorry you had such a bad room experience at BWV, I'm even sorrier that you packed up a baby and all that goes with it, dragged everything "on vacation", only to sit in a strange hotel room for the entire time and never venture out because of dust in the hallway. There are worse things in life you and your child can and will encounter than dust in the hallway.
Even if the hotel room and halls were picture perfect, 5 star, etc. etc., going on vacation to only sit in a hotel room to me seems like a waste of time and money, not to mention the DVC points. The saddest thing is, you missed out on one of the most magicial times to be in WDW and to experience all the joy that only Disney can bring to the holidays. And all because you and your baby were afraid to walk thru dust in the hallway.
Hope you have better luck planning your next vacation.

Thanks for the info on 4011/4013. Would you recommend this villa then? And, what was your opinion on the balcony situation? We stayed in the Crest O' The Wave in July, and this time I hoped to be in the red section. Thanks!
