Yup, it's separate shampoo and conditioner.
Thank you!!

I'm guessing all we would need to keep in the fridge is some milk. Is this doable?
I had a connecting room and never heard my neighbors whom I know were in the room as I heard them from outside when I was getting back to room.We just switched from Pop to POFQ for the week after Thanksgiving and are so excited!
I am having trouble deciding on a garden or river view. Both are available and the price difference is pretty small.
Can anyone give some advice? Are the river rooms too far away from the lobby to the worth it? Is the awesome view worth the walk?
Also I noticed on Touring Plans that most of the river view rooms are connecting rooms. I’m not a fan of connecting rooms and wonder if anyone has any experience with them (noise issues, etc).
Thanks!

I went to Food court and the shrimp and grits were amazing. I like the Mickey Beignets too. Took a pic and sent it to my friend in New Orleans. I was bummed they did not have the crawfish étouffée anymore tho. And Riverside pulled the Bayou Burger which was something else I wanted to try. I really enjoyed the resort and will book there again I am sure.
I'm sitting along the river at POFQ right now and thought I'd do a little mini review.
We moved over from POP yesterday. . . . We move to Music today and yes, were doing luggage transfer. But keeping our fingers crossed! Lol.View attachment 400669 View attachment 400670 View attachment 400671 View attachment 400672 View attachment 400673 View attachment 400674

Just wanted to chime in because I'm usually a Garden View person at POFQ (3x, once in Bldg 5 and twice in Bldg 6) and had to get River View for my last trip (1st week of May, was in Bldg 2)
1) POFQ is so small that nothing is far away. Honestly, a River View room is maybe an extra 50 steps (max) from a Garden View Room
2) The view depends on your window policy, I guess! I always close my curtains because I don't need people peeking into my room, so I don't see much at all of my view
3) I had noise issues in April 2018 with a connecting room, but that was a Garden View room and I just think those people were strangely loud. My River View room this time around was also connecting, but I didn't hear a thing. I think it's less about the connecting door and more about the luck of the draw on who's beside you.
With all of that said....I didn't like my River View room as much as Garden View! It was more about my building...I prefer being on the 4/5/6/7 side than the 1/2/3 side. And I would have rather saved a few bucks than have a River View room that I barely looked at.
We orginally had 4 nights at music booked and we added a night. Twice. Each time we added a night we couldn't get the same resort so we ended up hopping around. Other than the little snafu last night with the luggage its actually pretty easy to resort hop. It's a nice way to see resorts you otherwise wouldn't.I'm curious as to why you are moving around to three different resorts in (what appears to me) three days. Is this how you planned your trip on purpose or did something happen that caused you to change resorts a second time.
I got that room at POFQ - two doors from parking lot. Technically it was a garden view but I was slightly disappointed not to get a better view. But I still really liked the resort and want to go backThanks for your input! I appreciate it!
I asked my kids (15 and 17), and they wanted garden view, so that’s what we are going with.
What do you prefer about the 4-6 side over the 1-3 side? I am trying to figure out which buildings to request.
I just don’t want to be able to see the parking lot from my room/ area. I know it’s weird, but seeing the parking lot just takes me out of the bubble, I guess.
I was very disappointed in my “garden view” room at POR, which was 2 doors away from the parking lot.
We have stayed at POFQ on all our trips and prefer the 4-7 side . We like to walk up to POR a few times on our trip & that is the closer side. Since you booked Garden you could be in any of the 7 buildings. As far as what building to request it depends on what matters to you. It is such a small resort nothing is very far. Checkout the resort map at www.portorleans.org to see what buildings might work best.I asked my kids (15 and 17), and they wanted garden view, so that’s what we are going with.

Nowhere is far from anywhere at POFQ - so small and compact it's wonderful.We just switched from Pop to POFQ for the week after Thanksgiving and are so excited!

I just read an article saying the refurbishment at POFQ included a change to Keurig coffee pot. Can anyone confirm this for me?
Thanks so much
Nope, they're not Keurigs. Still Cuisinart dual pod coffee makers.
