We just came back from our 3rd stay at BLT. Had a 1 BR LV with a great view of the castle. Watched Wishes 3 times from the room.
Overall, we had an awesome trip and LOVE BLT. So glad we sold our original contract to buy all BLT.
However that all said I have minor gripes and was wondering others feelings.
First off DW and I find that overall the CM working in the lobby are less then friendly/enthusiastic. Find the same every trip. Every time we are in the lobby at CR they seem super friendly. BLT not so much. We had 1 gentlement that was very pleasant and helpful but overall whenever we walked in the CM working the lobby would look at us and then just look away. No "Welcome Home", No Hello, etc etc. I totally understand this is not that big of a deal but just a little annoying. When we went to SSR to use the pool one night and watch the movie the greeter there was very cheerful. Have found this the case most times at most resort. At BLT the staff everywhere else was great, just not the lobby. Anyone else find this?
The other minor issue I had was parking. Found that the parking lot was routinely being used by people going to TOTWL or MK. While I am all for keeping the TOTWL for DVC members and have no issue having it opened to all members like the recently did, was just a little annoyed when we came home one night and found the lot packed. Had to park in one of the furthest spots. Couldn't understand why at first. We left shortly after and return right after wishes and the lot was empty. Again all for having ALL DVC members use the lounge, just wish they would have a separate area maybe for people using the lounge and not staying there.
Also notice a lot of people walking back from MK to get in their cars and leave. Again, not the end of the world but bothered me a little. I know it is hard to police but would be nice if maybe they had a separate parking section that you needed your key to open so that it was reserved for guests and not just people that don't want to fight the crowds after MK opens.
All in all we had a great trip and I get my gripes are pretty small. Love staying at BLT and can't wait to go back.
Just curious others feelings that have encounted the same, or did we just get an off week.
