Wow, I never did like the minimalist 60's look. This looks just like disney now

I'm super skeeved out by hotel room floors so I always wear a pair of flip flops inside whether its carpeted or not.
The lack of sound absorption is the #1 reason I don't like it. I've never heard anything when staying at AKL and last December we had a renovated room there and we heard a lot from the people upstairs. No blame to them--it was perfectly ordinary in-the-room noise, but it was something I'd never experienced there before, and I started feeling like I was staying in a Value, not a Deluxe.I like the cleaner open look between the floor and refurbish. But I’ve seen people say they miss the sound absorption of carpet because now they can hear ppl upstairs.

I mean, they both have laminate flooring I guess? Outside of that the rooms are quite different and I can tell you from the picture alone the quality of materials are much higher in the Port Orleans rooms.
I doubt they are steam cleaning the laminate flooring. Probably just vacuuming it and not scrubbing the floor.Carpeting is gross. They aren't steam cleaned in between guests. All manner of fluids and dirt is on it and the vacuum doesn't pick it up.
Reslly easy to wet mop laminate with disinfectant. I have seen housekeeping at the pop wet mop those floors.I doubt they are steam cleaning the laminate flooring. Probably just vacuuming it and not scrubbing the floor.
No but I hope they are mopped. Even just vacuumed hard floor is better than carpeting. Urine and other fluids aren't soaking in to laminate.I doubt they are steam cleaning the laminate flooring. Probably just vacuuming it and not scrubbing the floor.
Looks like it too. Just like I think the much pricier Disney rooms look like Motel 6 now.
I see both sides, but I'm a fan of the no carpet trend as well for the reason above. It's a selfish reason but the removal of the carpet is so much better for my allergies. It's also easier to see if the floor has/hasn't been cleaned. One trip to CCV we entered the room and found the floor to be incredibly dusty. It amazed me that the room could've been unoccupied long enough to accumulate that much dust. We're not complainers, at all, but due to allergies we did say something. A cast member came up (she wasn't from housekeeping, maybe a manager?) and was suprised too. We let her know it was no rush, as we were going to be out of the room for awhile, but she took out cleaning supplies to start cleaning the floor herself!I like the no carpeting trend. Less chance of my allergies being triggered and it just seems more hygienic. I bring a pair of slippers for comfort anyway.
