What floor do you request?

I'm getting ready to book our rooms at CSR and am wondering if I should request a certain floor. It's a moderate, so no balcony to sit on, which makes me think maybe a ground floor room for convenience. But, does that mean that more people are able to see in if we want to open the curtains? What do you prefer?
 
Ugh. Stayed on the ground floor once. Never again. People rolling suitcases down the sidewalk...it's so loud when you closed down the park the night before and were the last guests out of the kingdom!

We're fans of the top floor now. :)
 
I tend to request first floor in Mods and Values. The stairs begin to wear on me around day two with all of the other walking at Disney. I don't love elevators but will use them, but I almost always end up closer to the stairs than the elevators and so take them to be quicker. Luckily I have gotten ground floor more often than not.

Ironically at both of my Deluxe stays I liked being high. With a balcony height is a perk.
 

2nd floor, after seeing 3 different snakes on property I'm afraid that one will slither into our room while housekeeping has the door propped open! I'm so afraid of snakes!!

And Palmetto bugs. And anoles. And that small family of stray cats around the Casitas.
 
I request top floor. If you have a balcony, then the higher up the better. If at a value or mod, I figure the top floor has the least amount of foot traffic. Also nice to not have upstairs neighbors banging around :)
 
Depends on if you have people that have trouble walking. If so, go ground. If not, it's quieter up top. That said, I never request floor levels, I'm much more concerned with building location than floor (though we don't have any problems hiking up floors).
 
When the kids were younger, we always preferred ground floor. Now that they are all teenagers, we are more like LSLS, and worry more about building location than anything.
 
I always request an upper floor no matter where we stay. It tends to be more quiet, a little more private, and the views are usually better (even if the view isn't all the great to begin with). I really don't like hearing everyone just outside of the door in the mornings, and I don't like always having to keep the curtains closed.

Snakes are excellent climbers, so the floor doesnt matter.
 
Highest possible floor girl here (and pretty much exclusively moderate resorts)! Like others have said, less traffic (pretty much only those who should be up there are - as opposed to ground floor where everyone has to walk by to get to the stairs/elevator). My classroom is on the 4th floor, so I'm quite used to stairs.

Plus I figure doing them a few times a day helps keep that calorie burn up! :)
 
We have stayed in rooms on all 3 floors at POFQ and haven't noticed any significant difference with noise.
 
I always request top floor at the values. Last trip to Pop we were stuck under a bunch of drunk college kids flushing the toilet all night . For the deluxes with balconies I also prefer top floor for the view. Mods, I've stayed all floors and don't mind either way.
 
We have a very active young child, so we try to ask for ground floor so his jumping/bumping etc doesn't bother our downstairs neighbors.
