I was so excited to show everyone our pictures that I forgot to give any other info
Let's backtrack a moment if you don't mind.
We arrived very early on Saturday morning, needless to say our room was not ready. We ate breakfast in the lounge and headed over to Epcot where we had FP's for Soarin and Test Track. These were our only scheduled activities for the day, after the rides we were planning on spending the whole day hanging out at SAB.
So we headed back to BC. I stopped at the checkin desk in the lobby and nicely asked if our room was ready yet. I was told it wasn't quite ready. I said no problem and thank you for checking. We then went to Bell services and got our swimsuits from our luggage.
We headed to SAB and started to enjoy the pool. We had several drinks while at SAB including the Pina Colava, Beers, and of course the Sunken Treasure
After a few hours, I checked in again with the front desk staff inquiring about our room, it still wasn't ready. I thanked them again for checking. I was worried that checking so much may upset the CM's but everyone was very nice when I was inquiring and I was always polite and made sure to thank them for checking.
Later we returned to the CL lounge to have some snacks. I inquired about our room again with the CL CM's. They politely checked and said it wasn't ready yet. No problem, we headed into the lounge and had some snacks and beers.
While sitting at the tables enjoying ourselves, I received the magical text. Our room was ready and the room number was 5643. We had booked a Deluxe CL room and I knew that there weren't any of those rooms on the 5th floor, so I knew we had been upgraded. I showed my family the text and told them we had been upgraded
With our party size I knew we had to be upgraded to a 2 bedroom suite. I didn't know if there were any 2 bedroom suites on the 5th floor so I didn't know what to expect other than 2 bedrooms. Now of course I had been dreaming about the Presidential Suite for some time, never expecting it to happen!!!
I went to the CM desk and Neil (one of my favorites) was there and I told him that my room was ready per my text. I told him that it gave me a room number and it was 5643, I said there aren't any Deluxe CL rooms on the 5th floor so this must be an upgrade, right??? He said yes and asked me to show him my test with the room number. So I did, he seemed just as excited as I was starting to get. He asked where the rest of my party was. I told him in the lounge. He went with me to get my family and told them he was going to escort us to our room if we were ready. Of course we were ready. He then took us to the Presidential Suite and gave us a detailed tour. We were in heaven and couldn't believe our good luck. It was awesome.
We loved the room so much we didn't want to leave it. They had to chase us out of it at 11am on checkout day
