I vaguely remember that there was a route that did this once upon a time, but I don't think you can anymore. I think now you have to go to Disney Springs first.

Is Carousal the absolute worst section to be in? I am thinking possibly so.

I'm staying in a studio next month and wondering how comfortable the fold -out double bed is. Does anyone have any experience with the couch/bed? Any horror stories of not being able to walk the next day due to sleeping with a bar in the middle of their back? Thanks!

We just had our first stay at SSR and can see why you all are fans! We had a 2 bedroom in the Grandstands. The location was great.The room was in good condition. Housekeeping did a good job. Loved being the first bus stop. We enjoyed the pool there. It felt like a vacation there-we found we relaxed in the room more than usual. It was nice to go over to DS to eat and wander. Can definitely see us staying here again.

Unless of course you'd like quiet and don't care much about a decent walk to the pools and/ or carriage house?
My DD who is only 95 lbs and a friend are the only ones who sleep on it and say its just "ok". IMO it may be a bit uncomfortable for a regular weight adult.
We are heading over soon for a two week stay. We are thinking of requesting Paddock, buildings 10 or 11, 4th floor, rooms 5827,5821,6427,6421.
Its a 2 bed villa, there are 4 adults, a 3 year old and a 6 year old in our party. We won't be using Disney transportation very much and will spend a fair bit of time at springs. this is a cash booking.
Anything thoughts on these room requests?

I slept on it last night with my daughter. It is "firm" and I prefer softer but I slept fine. Does take a bit of wriggling to find a comfortable spot but I'm not sore or anything today.
Grandstand section, villa, building 80. Perfect location- room by elevator 4th floor) and steps to pool and bus stop. First time here and now a fan!

I'm not sure if the pull out sofa bed in the one bedroom units is the same sofa bed as in the studios. Our DD31 slept on the pull out sofa bed in our one bedroom unit and found that the mattress was very thin, and she was very uncomfortable and dreaded the thought of sleeping on it for a week. She asked at the front desk if there was anything that could be done, and they promptly offered to send up an egg crate foam mattress. So I guess that wasn't the first time someone complained about the sofa bed. The egg crate foam did the trick for her, so it may be an option of you find the sofa bed not to your liking.

I don't understand how they insist that this room holds 8 adults when counting a pull out that everyone says is terribly uncomfortable. I would be very upset if I paid good money to sleep on that! Luckily we won't need to use it but I know many expect to have beds for 8 and use it.

Running around SSR was one of my favorite morning routines at WDW. I would suggest that you start out running on the widest of the concrete paths. This will take you around the lake between the Springs and Paddocks sections. You can then explore how to add in Congress Park, Carousel and Grandstand. The last 3 sections require crossing a few of the roads within the resort. It is one of the prettiest resorts for jogging. Good Luck!
Thanks Kevin i'll give it a go

A couple of things I found...
Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa
Run on paved pathways through this spacious Resort hotel and along the manicured greens of Disney’s Lake Buena Vista Golf Course. Designated jogging trails include 1.44-mile and 0.8-mile loops.

I don't think DVC resorts accept fax requests any longer. If you are staying on DVC points or cash through DVC then contact MS and add the requests to your reservation. You can also select some things while doing your online check-in. However, if you list requests through MS it is best to not add them when doing online check-in.
