BLT rooms and views with picture links! Last update of post #1 10/21/2015

[Gryhndmom]

I received a partial answer from DVC member satisfaction. I was called while I was driving to the dentist yesterday. I was told that there are no Theme Park rooms on the third floor. That the lockoff 2BRs TPV rooms are on the third floor. However the CM I spoke too could not provide the room numbers that are theme park view for the 3rd or 4 floors. She also stated that for dedicated 2BRs the Theme Park views start on the 5th floor. I will be talking to someone at BLT this morning to see if they can give me answers as to what room numbers are TPV on the 3, 4, and 5 floor. BTW, I was given a phone number to call BLT from the Celebration CM who I spoke with yesterday. Hopefully using her name I will get someone to give me more answers.

I am not really positive she gave me a correct answer. So don't get excited yet.

Thanks for the update...can’t wait to hear what other information you gather.

I'm going to call DVC and see if the gentleman to whom I always talk to is in this morning (not the salesman, but who I call to make reservations, changes, etc). If so, I'm going to ask him to check his computer just to confirm that what the other CM told me the other day (my contact was out so I spoke with the next available CM) is the same info that he sees on his computer. Then I'll ask him who we reach out to to find out what happened with regard to the reallocation of room view assignments.

(EDIT: My guy wasn't in yesterday nor today so I'll keep you all posted)

My memory is not so great but I DO recall now speaking with a CM after that trip when we were put into a 4th floor room. When I initially told her about my issue she agreed with me and said the TPV rooms start on the 5th floor, but when she dug into her computer for more info she was surprised to see it actually said there were rooms considered TPV on the 4th floor (tho I don't recall her saying there were some on the 3rd floor as well).

I'm just curious who gets to change these allocations and shouldn't the members have a say, or at least be advised?

Also, depending on what we find out I wonder if I should bring up this issue on the Disboards Facebook page for more exposure. Thoughts?

Oh!! And a shout out again to DenLo for getting the ball rolling on this!! Hopefully we can get some clarity!

2 bedroom lockoffs are basically a 1-bedroom and a studio together right? I have a TPV studio booked for June and did put in a request for higher floors. What is a realistic idea of what floors to anticipate getting a TPV studio on? I had thought it was 5th floor and above from looking at the chart on the front page but is that an inaccurate chart?

You are correct. Lockoffs are 1BDRM's and Studios that have a door that locks in between them.

We are hoping to get some clarification as to exactly what floor the TPV rooms are supposed to start on as it has been a "gray area" for many of us.
Stay tuned....

Thank you for this thread! Very helpful for our upcoming trip!

I’ve attached two pics from from one-bedroom BLT unit 8110, on the 11th floor. Lakeview unit with bonus MK view. It’s not accessible and connects with room 8108.

BLT one-bedroom unit #4721, lake view. Not accessible. We once stayed here for one night. Could see the Electrical Water Parade and the water fountains when slider was open. But view was pretty obstructed and we were able to move to a room with a clearer view (higher floor).

I love the pics! Thanks for sharing. We recently bought at BLT, and this thread is so helpful.

I had screen shot these once from page one. Hope it helps

We were put in a 4th floor MKV room during a trip a couple years ago. We told the CM that that room category should be a Standard View room and he insisted that the 4th floor does indeed have MKV rooms. We are still trying to get clarity on this....

Since we are currently at BLT, I decided to go to the front desk and have them look up on the computer each floor for BLT. It took so long that we only did the even numbered rooms. It turns out to be different from the charts we have on this thread.

THANK YOU DenLo!!!! I don't know how to change the chart, hopefully someone will. In the meantime I'll be making notes on my printed out version.

I'm sad that the 4th floor has been confirmed to be a MKV. Just went back to the first page and looked at what the view looks like from the 4th floor. Not horrible, just a bummer looking up at the monorail track. Wish they would change it back to a standard view....

 

[CookieandOatmeal]

I am getting a bit nervous that I will get a room on the 4th or 5th floor and have that view looking at the contemporary versus a straight on view of MK. If I do, I don't think I will spring for a TPV again. Just keeping my fingers crossed for the best outcome.

Nice of you to take the time to do this Denlo!

Haven't some people been giving 3rd floor rooms - since the reallocation - and were told they were MK rooms? If I remember and get a chance it's time to go back and see if this can possible match up to that reallocation or maybe someone else has done that? I'm afraid that they are getting a little loose with the assignments when they feel like it but don't have anything specific to back it up until I do some room for room comparisons.

Your best bet is to call and "request" 6th floor or higher. Hopefully that will decrease your chances of getting the 4th or 5th floor.

I hope you get a chance to do that, as I have no idea how!

I got a room on the 4th floor lake view and also was told a lake view not std. I think when they made this chart it was a guess . Also disney doesn't show or report anything to use to their advantage.

I wasn't thrilled but in the end our room was ok. However I would be upset if I paid TPV prices and got a 4th. Sorry that happened to you.

I already put in a request for higher floors. I hope that is good enough to increase my odds of not getting a 4th or 5th floor room.

I just sent another email to revise the request to 6th floor or higher. Let's hope it works!

Same. 3rd floor lake view November 2017, even number, 7310 conflicts with above info. From my receipt:

Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort RM 7310

 

[KAT4DISNEY]

The chart above was started as the best guess from the initial units allocated. Then if there was consistent reports of people receiving a certain room under a certain view it would be modified. HOWEVER - one of the problems at BLT was that some of these rooms have not been consistently given under certain views thus my comment about some willy nilly assignments as they are needed.
