Saratoga Springs Remodel - Nothing Yet. Update ref Date

[cpjw]

Managed to get through an entire stay without a single voicemail this year. Or so I thought...

When we were about to leave, I tried to ring bell services to collect our luggage and discovered that the phone wasn't plugged in

Of course once it was plugged in, I then had a load of messages to wade through just in case one was important

Is there any way you can stop the yoga race fans calls
Also drives me mad

Ali. Sadly I think not it's just sent to every room that's got Guests in.

Never seen more than 5 people participating. Waste of our Dues.

We had the yoga call and the drawing class at $20 today for limited numbers, er no thanks! Think the red light is flashing again...

This is our 1st dvc trip, and we seem quite happy with our 1 bed villa. Loving the space after 3 nights together in other hotel rooms. Still getting our bearings but found the boat dock last night, so a quick trip to Disney Springs was lovely. 😃

Already having second thoughts about ""downgrading"" to a Port Orleans room for 3 of us next year, space is definitely everything, despite the free qsdp!

At 10.15pm tonight strolling back from Disney Springs the urge overwhelmed me!

I would say Block 1 is circa 2 weeks from completion the reason being that the Boys are everywhere. Working 24/7 hence the speedy progress. Lights on in most rooms and furniture in maybe 75% of them.

Braving the mozzies and the wet grass I nabbed these photos of a ground floor Studio.

So, nice modern bedside tables and lamps. Laminate throughout. Steel fridge not white. No more leather pouffe but a wooden box and although a poor photo the pull down bed that YT highlighted some months ago.

Gone is the god awful dark 1920's wood and associated awful pictures. Apart from the headboard looks lovely.

Great work Tom.

Edit- did the studio look to have the under TV Murphy in? Is that a faux set of drawers under the TV or a Murphy? Looks like they may have only put the 5th sleep surface in the 1 beds as suspected? Going a different route here if that’s the case.

Well done Super Spy!

I'm loving the new lighter look.

Thanks for these Tom. Looking good. We have a preferred studio booked for April/May next year so hope we will be in congress park!

YT. It was difficult to see but I would say no 5th bed from the quick look I had. I couldn't get to see the far right where the drawers are as the drape was hiding it.

I will be doing some more digging around in the coming days.

The block was lit up like Blackpool illuminations and as per picture 1 even the TVs were on!

The work crew must be on good loot. Their private pick ups are nice. Plus they seem to be really professional not the half baked Guys you see doing some construction jobs.

There is a constant stream of wagons arriving with furniture, white goods and other such stuff. The coordination of that is very good.

As an aside for those who are concerned about noise. Yes there is some but it's nothing excessive and certainly nothing after 6.00pm

Edit. I'm 99% certain the chest and table tops are granite. Makes sense and saves marks and other damage. Also so easy to replace if broken
