8209 had the bath sink in a long counter in the kitchenette; this made the kitchenette seem larger. The two sinks, across from each other, was weird. 8208 had a small sink in the bath, and a counter in the back corner of the kitchenette.
Resurrecting this thread.
I stayed in 8209 (inside of curve) last night, and 8208 (outside of curve) tonight.
These were the differences:
8209 has a 60" tv, while 8208 had a 37" tv. The space difference in 8208 was given over to a cabinet containing shelves.

8209 had a hand towel holder on the wall next to the bath sink. 8208 had no place, other than the shelves next to the sink, to hold the hand towel.
8208 has an awesome view of the MK to the left and water center and right. Blinds open to the views!
8209's view was of the pool to the left, and villa balconies center and right. We kept the blinds drawn to avoid our neighbors looking in.
wait. there are BLT studios that never got the renovation?? So 8209 had no sink in the bathroom? You had to go to the kitchen to wash your hands?

They are pretty much all the same size. The shape of the ones on the inside of the curve makes slightly less room in bedroom area and more in the bath and kitchen, so I'd ask for an even numbered (outside) room.
I didn't know that some of the lake view rooms were on the outside of the curve. BLT newbie hoping to see the Electric Water Pagent.
8209 had a tub, so not HA.
So if these rooms, 8209 & 7908 are regular studios why weren’t they remodeled with the revised bathroom in 2010. Has anyone ever asked DVC?
Just for grins I asked downstairs today at BLT. I said I had heard that some studios may not have been modified with the sink in the bathroom. I was assured that all had been and all must be to “assure a consistent guest experience” across a given room type. I didn’t argue. This was from the “suited host/greeter” person mid lobby. I’m certainly not questioning @CraigInPA, just passing along what was said.So if these rooms, 8209 & 7908 are regular studios why weren’t they remodeled with the revised bathroom in 2010.
