Hi all,
When I called to book our rooms for free dining, my first choice for our family of 5 was ASMu suites. I was told by the CM that this was unavailable for me during free dining (I have seen that some people got it, some didn't) but that he could offer me "GUARANTEED" connecting rooms at ASmo. I asked if guaranteed meant that there was 100% certainty that we would have rooms connected by a door, and he assured me up and down that would be the case, without a doubt. He said that because we had 3 under 12, and wouldn't fit into one room, and had first requested the suite, he could offer the "guarantee". He did say that he couldn't guarantee where our 3rd room would be (for my parents) but that he would note that we wanted it close as possible. I am now reading on the other threads that "guaranteed" doesn't always end up being the reality.......Just wanted to get a sense of how often that has ACTUALLY happened to people, vs. how often people speculate that it might not work out. Our second option was POR, which would be tight quarters, but if we don't really get connecting rooms at ASMo, the second room will be useless anyway, since DH and I have no desire to split up and stay in seperate rooms, we would probably be so bitter that we would cancel the second room right then, and stuff one of the kids in with my parents. So anyway, please, if you have requested connecting rooms and gotten them, I would love to hear.....if you have requested connecting rooms and NOT gotten them, I would love to hear.....if you want to speculate about our chances, I've even given an option for that. TIA for any input!!!!!
