The high rock springs pool is larger but the slide at the paddock is way more fun. Plus, they have food at the bar area in the paddock pool. If you're in a standard room, then I'd request "Paddock area near pool"
I think I will! I booked standard because that’s all that was available with an AP rate.
If it is the building I am thinking of, it is close to a bus station and walk to Disney Springs, though!
Grandstand is the first bus stop, so yes, with a scooter that would be the best, especially early in the morning when there aren't likely to be other scooters already on board, returning from the parks! And Grandstand is a short walk to the DS boat dock, as well as not too terribly far from the walkway to DS, not to mention very close to the Carriage House where the restaurants and shops are.
My teen who is 6 ft tall slept on it. He loved it greatly preferring it to a sofa bed. During that trip he also slept on the one at RIV. I swear it seemed the mattress was 1-2 inches thicker at RIV then SSR. That didn’t bother him at all though.
Thank you. It helps me!
Yes. There are 2 elevators located in the front entrance of each building.
Everyone I have seen have said that Grandstand is the 1st bus stop, so best for a scooter.
It was not open when we went at the beginning of the month.
If you’re near DS, you’ll likely be on a more full bus trying to get to rope drop. Ask at the front desk for bus times. MDE may not be reliable in telling you correct bus times. Don’t forget you’ll need to take a bus to the front of SSR, then the bus to MK. Edit: *It seems this is incorrect and you can go straight to MK without changing buses. I was incorrectly remembering a horror story about a family unable to board for over an hour as full buses would pass them by toward the back of SSR. Sorry for the confusion.* *Schedule time to hit a pool. Note that some walking paths to and from DS close after dark. Again, clear up what’s open at what times at the front desk.
