When you check in online, do you get your room number and room location at that point? What if you have a problem with it for some reason, what do you do? Do you wait until you get there or do you/can you call?

No. You might get your room number texted it to you on arrival day once it is ready. But, you also might not and will have to stop by the Front Desk when you arrive.

Once you get your room number you can speak to the Front Desk for a possible room change.

What is the advantage of online check in then? Overall quicker?

What is the advantage of online check in then?

For the possibility of being able to Bypass The Front Desk and head straight to our room.

Overall quicker?

That too.

I do online check-in with hopes that they will honor my requests but I always end up going to the front desk anyway. We like to get a map of the resort, buttons, and anything else we might need. We just got back today and instead of getting a room number my text said to stop at the front desk.

When you get a room number text you also get a link to a resort map and a phone number if you need assistance. If you don't like the room/location, call that number and you can try to get it changed before you even get to the resort.

This is good information to know. Normally I don't have a problem with room location but after being far away from where I wanted to be this last trip, I'm more likely to request a change in the future if it happens again.

That's what we ran into last trip. They tried to put us in the building right next to construction at Coronado. We looked at the map and immediately called and had a new room assigned without needing to go to the resort to sort it out.

It's really pre-registration, you give them your information.
