    "Nice place but more signs needed parking lot side."
    TripAdvisor user rating 3.0 out of 5
    Reviewed February 02, 2025 NEW
    Our room was comfortable and bathroom was pretty spacious. Getting to our room from the parking lot the first day was a nightmare and getting to the bus stop the first time. I regret going directly to room and not stopping by the lobby to get cast to show us things on a map that is big enough to see. After second day , we figured things out. There are signs side by the river that are clear and easy to follow. The parking lot side hardly any signs. The staff were very nice. The boat was a long wait. The bus is faster. A trip to sister resort for beignets was great.

    Not worth the price. Cons: Weak shower, slow to clogged drain, tv remote not working, phone not working, Room lights pretty dim, housekeeping every other day and not that much done when there. Dining hall food was just fair to ok. Friendly cast members but not knowledable about schedules. 1st fl. noisy at nights. Pros: Bed and pillows were nice.

    "Royal Guest Room Stay"
    TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5
    Reviewed January 22, 2025 NEW
    We stayed two nights in the Royal Guest Room 9250 which is a corner room with two sided windows on the second floor of the Oak Manor Building 90 This room is like no other in Disney with its light up headboard at the push of a button, princess framed artwork on the walls, and other magical tasteful touches it fits the 5 year old demographic pretty perfectly. This room is also an older style room that hasn't been renovated yet. There is no under bed storage, It still has a mini fridge as opposed to a beverage cooler, serial ports to connect your laptop as well an RCA port to connect your...PlayStation 2? There is virtually no plugs in the room as well as no usb ports. The side table in between the beds has been beat up and the backboard is broken. It was quite bright at night trying to keep light out of the dual wall windows was a challenge. The resort is setup as motel with access via the outside. The grounds are immaculate and were quite clean. Overall, for a longer stay you probably better off with a renovated room, but for your princess loving 5 year old they will never be bored of it.

    Our first time staying on site at Disney and it did not disappoint. We were in awe as soon as we drove past the hotel sign. Everything was fantastic. The cast members and all staff were friendly and so helpful. The pool was fantastic, my child’s favourite part. Lifeguards made sure everyone was safe. The food court was brilliant such a wide variety. The hotel was so clean walking around. It was so peaceful walking around too. We have already booked for this year coming, so excited . Turned us into on site Disney stayers now. The boat to Disney springs is a brilliant addition. The bar is great for a relaxing drink after a busy day. Great on site shop
