We are staying at POP. I got a confirmation email with my reservation in it. I noted the following language:
SPECIAL REQUEST: REQUEST CONNECTING ROOMS
PLEASE NOTE: REQ 70S BLDG 4TH FL-NOT GTD

While I did request 70's, connecting rooms and 4th floor, I don't know what "not GTD" means. Anyone??
Thanks!!
 
Thanks! I've never noticed that before on any of my reservations and I've always made specific requests. Odd.
 
Just so you know, Pop is horrible about requests. So if you don't get what you want don't be too upset. :)

We got EXACTLY our request at Pop! But, it probably helped that what we requested was probably what most people DON'T want ;) ... which is lakeside, opposite end from the pool, upper floor, Epcot view. What we got was a third-fl room along the lake (backside of Mowgli bldg), quiet with very little traffic going by, from where we could see Spaceship Earth and the fireworks from Illuminations. Perfect!! :wizard:

And yeah, ours said NOT GTD also. Ya never know. :hippie:

OP -- Enjoy your trip!!

REALLY??? I totally had NO idea you could have an Epcot view from Pop Century!!! Wow! That's awesome!

Is it a long walk from the main building to get to your room?
 
Did you by chance take any pictures of that room view?? I'd love to see it. I'm hoping to get to Pop Century over Memorial Day weekend next year.
 
They just put "not guaranteed" to cover themselves. They don't want you getting to the hotel and saying "but my reservation says we have the 70's building!!"
 
We have stayed in 3 different buildings and areas and enjoyed them all. We are requesting the 50's area this year because we liked it so much last year. But they are all close to the center, all have nice pools and are easy walks. We love Pop and will be staying there this year for 16 days.:surfweb:

My experience has been the opposite! I have gotten every one of my requests every time I have been to Pop!! Down to the same room even!
