This may be a stupid question, but are your referring to the location in the building or the actual room number?

We stayed in a 70s bldg (non-preferred facing away from the courtyard). I know that the two 70s buildings have preferred rooms. We thought the location was pretty ideal.

it really depends- how much noise do you want to deal with, what floor do you prefer, do you want to be near the pool? We were in 60's just past Baloo & Mowglie, near the kiddie pool on the 1st floor, don't remember the room#, but it was a good spot, still close enough to the hippie dippie pool, and the food court, but far enough away that we didn't get the noise.

Jeff,

We just returned from a stay at POP. i believe in the 50's section the Lady and Tramp buildings have preferred rooms. We stayed in Jukebox non-preferred and the location was perfect.

We were in the corner on the 1st floor, right behind the Jukebox icon.

Lady and Tramp face the bowling pool.

Good luck

I just stayed in a non-preferred room, 50's section, Lady building, but on the arm the sticks out towards the parking lots, 2nd floor....and it was great! Close to the pool and the main building and not too far of a walk to the busses. We only heard the occassional toilet flush from upstairs, very quiet.

I 'm going to be near the main building due to a nagging knee , this was a request sorry i should of said this but i do not know which ones are near the main bldg ??
then this would ansawer alot of ?? but i do not know if i should request a special room ## ?? of which i do not mind doing . all i know is i got a prefered room something close to the main bldg . can anyone help me with anysuggestion on room # or bldg . i think i'm thinking too much but i just want to have a good idea before i leave where we are going to be if this sounds right ?

Jeff just remember requests are just that requests. There is no guarantee you will get what you want. But since you are staying in a prefered building I'm sure all will be fine. We have not stayed at Pop but have stayed at other value resorts and we were always happy with our prefered rooms. Have a great time.

We asked for a first floor preferred room in the 60's bldg. We got a corner room with the popjet fountain right in front of it. BUT there is very thick landscaping so we did not know it was there until we were exploring the resort. We LOVED this location. Short walk to everything. After hours (night) you can walk towards the 70's building from the bus stop and hang a right to the corner of the 60's building we were in. During reg hours you can walk through the food court to the bus stop. It was on the food court side of Classic Hall which is so very conveinent for refills, shopping and cutting through to the bus stop.

I would be sure to note your knee on the request;so they know the reason you are requesting a first floor room close to everything. We really enjoyed our stay at POP . Noise was not an issue.
The only con to the 60's is the parking. If you are driving be sure to unload your car while it is in the CHECK IN lot ( so much closer). It is quite a hike to the 60's lot from the 60's building. We unloaded and loaded back up in the check in lot due to this.
HAPPY PLANNING and GOOD LUCK!

Won't be long now Jeff I don't know locations at Pop, but if you are doing the 5 day fax, I would just explain what type of location you are looking for, because of your knee. I wouldn't get too technical about building or room #. The most important thing is that they know what type of location you require and why.

[lukeandbrookesmom]

You already have the preferred building so I would simply request a room close to the main hall and give them the reason you need the room (your knee). This way they will hopefully assign you to either a first floor room close to the main hall or a higher floor near the elevators.

Thank you , all for great responces . I plan on Faxing a request 5 days in advance since we arrive at about 4pm which to me is late lol . I just want to make sure my walking is not like my last trip where they had to give me a wheel chair to get to the very end of BWV i talked to the mgr she was fully booked an offered the wheel chair .

Good luck Jeff, I think WDW tries really hard to accommodate guests, esp. if there is a medical necessity. Sorry you had such a bad location at BWI. With a preferred room it should be better.

Thank You Sue it was rough for the 2 nights we were there . this is why i do not want this to happend to me again.

I have stayed at POP twice. I had a room the second time that had a view of the fireworks at EPCOT. It was really neat to stand on my balcony and watch it. I can't remember what building I was in and they were constructing more buildings that might offer a better view. If you are interested, you could ask at the front desk. That is how I got the room.
