As background, I'm going to be at POR in April with a group with 5 standard rooms (10 adults, 6 kids). One of the rooms has 5 people, so I understand they will be placed at AB. Because we're going together as a group, we are hoping to stay close to each other (ideally with some adjoining rooms), and so will be sending a room request. I have a few questions I'm hoping you can help me with:
1) I seem to have read conflicting ideas. Should I be sending the room request before or after the online checkin at 60 days?
2) Given that we are requesting to be in AB, does anyone have recommendations for the best buildings? My gut says that due to the number of kids, it is probably best be closer to the bus depots (especially in evenings/nap time).
3) Kind of related to #2; it seems that people recommend the West Bus, since it tends to come first in the morning. This probably work best when we are traveling with our large group. Is this still accurate?
