Just back from 8 nights at POR with family. The only request our daughter made was that we had 3 rooms side-by-side and we "almost" got that. Our daughter and her family had a connecting room with her husband's parents, then there was a walkway, then our room. So we weren't EXACTLY side by side but it was fine. She had hoped they would be in the middle as the grandchildren wanted a set of grandparents on each side, but we didn't ask to make a change. We were in Acadian House which is kind of what I expected since she didn't request a closer building. We were on the first floor, facing the river and it wasn't a long walk at all to get to the food court/lobby. Just a "hop, skip and a jump" and we were on the bridge going to the main pool. Never minded the walk at all.
Loved being back at that resort (4th time for me), it's so pretty and peaceful. Never had time to take a long walk around the whole resort though, and never had time for a carriage ride either. Next time.
Only minor complaints were that we had a prank phone call at 2:00 in the morning one night (several teen tour groups were at POR that week) and one morning we had the "privacy please" card hanging outside our door but had the curtains open so the housekeeper peeked in at 9:30 and tapped on the window. I opened the door and she wanted to know when we were leaving for the day. I almost took back the tip envelope I had laying on one of the bed pillows. To me, "privacy please" means just that! No peeking in the window and knocking on it!!
