Has anybody stayed in Ranchos 7a or 7b? We will not be using transport, and don't need to be near El Centro. We are looking for a quiet, refurbished room. How were those buildings for you?

so are the bus stops to the park like on the first page-
There are 4 stops around the resort:
Bus stop 1: El Centro
Bus stop 2: Cabanas
Bus stop 3: Ranchos
Bus stop 4: Casitas
However, the buses DO NOT visit the stops in that order. When the THEME PARK (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disneys Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom) buses enter the resort they proceed to Bus stop 2, then 3, then 4, and lastly 1. When the DISNEY SPRINGS buses enter the resort they proceed to Bus stop 1, then 2, then 3, then 4. The thought process behind this transportation strategy is that you can hop on a THEME park bus to go to El Centro and then hop on a DISNEY SPRINGS bus and return to your room
I thought I read not to far back in a post that someone said the busses where full when they got to cabanas because it was the last stop to the theme parks?
Is there a charge to have diapers sent to the resort because it is a convention resort? I read on the first page it was $5-$10, is that how it works still and is it more to ship stuff home from there, rather then the $15 when you guy stuff in the theme parks and have it shipped home. I want to buy a bunch of presents form the outlet. thanks so much for the info.
We just returned from staying in 7A & we loved it. We especially liked being removed from the construction area & we found Ranchos very peaceful & relaxing to come back to after a busy day in the parks. 7A is refurbished & I loved the more modern design of them.Has anybody stayed in Ranchos 7a or 7b?

Ranchos 7A is going to be our number one request then, thank you. 31 days until check inWe just returned from staying in 7A & we loved it.

Us too I think. Sounds like a perfect location for us.Ranchos 7A is going to be our number one request then, thank you. 31 days until check in
Cabanas 8A will put you closest to the main pool. Casitas 5 (north side) and Ranchos 7B (south side) are also good choices.Would love advice from anyone on this- My family is planning on going to Coronado in January. Our main hope is to be near the Dig Site. In your experience, would you request Ranchos or Cabanas? I think both areas look really nice.
I just got a great rate and recently switched a last minute December trip form POFQ to CSR! I placed a request for Cabanas 8A as well. Fingers crossed!!We get there dec 9th, hoping for 8a. Haven’t decided if we’ll decorate our window or not, can’t wait
I have been calling in almost every morning for 2 months to get in and finally a week ago it opened up. I was so excited.I just got a great rate and recently switched a last minute December trip form POFQ to CSR! I placed a request for Cabanas 8A as well. Fingers crossed!!
It is crazy how the room inventory fluctuates, glad you were able to get it! Persistence is key!!I have been calling in almost every morning for 2 months to get in and finally a week ago it opened up. I was so excited.
@saskdw - might be a 50, I have a bad sense for size. Whatever size it is, it's more than enough.
So, without further ado, here's the video, filmed in ultra hd 4k hdr vr for your viewing pleasure. No it's not, my phone is a 59 dollar potato, but it gets the point across.

Just to confirm, the food in the fridge is yours? These aren't mini bars, but empty fridges in the rooms. We need an empty fridge to store meds.
On our last day, we are planning lunch at T-Rex and I'd like to pick up sandwiches from EOS to eat at the airport prior to clearing security (we have a 9PM flight). Does CSR have a fridge of some kind available to "hold" the sandwiches until our DME pick up around 6PM?
