Good Morning! We just booked a HA room at Coronado and I realized I booked a wheelchair transfer shower room instead of a roll in shower for my son. Could anyone tell me the difference?
Thank you for the info about accessible shower rooms. It's great to know about different options for various needs. Accessibility is essential for a comfortable stay.Roll in shower rooms actually have a shower that you could roll right into with a rolling shower chair.
There are wheelchair accessible rooms with tubs with grab bars - some people with disabilities prefer to have a tub to soak in. Those will be labeled as wheelchair accessible with tub.
The wheelchair accessible with transfer shower can‘t be rolled into. They usually have a shower that is entered from the short side with a fold down bench. You can push a wheelchair next to the bench, then transfer from wheelchair to bench for the shower.
