If you have children you may want to ask at check in to have the fridge that is in the room full of goodies locked they can do that for you. We have a child so we always have it locked just in case. LOL If you have a Disney Visa you can get a stroller in the park thru Sept. at no cost but that is only if you have the credit card. It used to be $7 to rent a stroller but it may have changed. I have not rented one in a while.
Originally Posted By ttfn2u2 Thank you all so much for the information. Guess I'll be calling the hotel in advance and request the fridge. We have a 1 1/2 year old so it's pretty much a necessity. I do have an additional question with regards to the strollers... are there any cupholders? I know, it seems like a stupid little detail but I'm trying to figure out if I should bring our stroller or if I can get by with just renting one. Oh, and do they recline at all for sleeping? Thangs again.

Now we drive and it would be easy to bring but at 10 he just wont get ride in one anymore. LOL Sometimes he sure could use the nap in one too. LOL

The last time I checked on line it said that it was only good thru the end of Sept. Lets keep our fingers crossed that it last longer.

Originally Posted By LacyBelle No guarantees, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if the free stoller deal was offered again.

I suspect the September deal expiration dates are done that way to coincide with Disney's fiscal year. Just a theory, though.
