Looks similar to my January room
Do you know where all the doors are ?
Those “corner” doors help!
The fire exit stairs are the secret to getting out of the building and on to the sidewalk as quickly as possible. There should be a fire exit near your room.I don’t know any shortcuts and it’s hallways on hallways to get to my room...definitely a rude awakening after basically having a private elevator steps from my door at GF lol! Please let me know the doors!

Opinions needed please! We are currently staying at the Yacht Club w/water view. But we have an option to stay in a BCV for quite a bit cheaper. I'm really torn on what to do as I've never stayed at either. We're doing a split stay with Poly as well (one week at each). This trip is my attempt to get DH to fall in love with WDW and see how magical it is, so I'm definitely going over the top with our plans!
But right now I can't decide if the rooms at YC (with the hard floors and beautiful views) are better than cheaper at BCV.
Thoughts?

I’ve never stayed in the villas but in a regular BC room before and just got into my YC water view room yesterday. There is no comparison between them imo, this YC room wins by a country mile. Not that my BC room wasn’t nice but this one just FEELS fresher, and there are so many little practical things that are thoughtful and useful…love the reading lights on the bed and the way the ironing board slides out from the closet. And well…you can see my view a few posts earlier. I sat on my balcony a little while ago watching the joggers and friendship boats and people walking to Hollywood Studios while I ate breakfast from the QS. My neighbor from around the corner came out onto her balcony and we chatted a bit, even. Love love love. It is so worth it. But ofc I am solo and don’t have space or sleep surface considerations to think about.
I'm not sure who will be with you, but make sure you know about the bed situation at BCV. If it's cheaper than YC, I assume you are talking about a studio. One queen size bed, one sleep sofa, one pull-down bed which is smaller than a twin. If you need two "real" beds, than a studio is not for you. Very little storage space. Kitchenette has microwave, toaster, fridge, sink, coffee maker.
If your goal is to get DH to fall in love with WDW, then the YC room probably is nicer than the BCV studio.
If you choose YC, people can help you with room requests. I believe "water view" can mean pool view. It's possible that you would get a pool view at BCV. (Obviously not the same pool.)
Yes the Canada border being closed is a real pain. Yours situation having a much bigger impact than to my family.Just wish gf could be with me but hopefully Canada gets its act together by October so we can celebrate a belated 40th for her too during WDW’s 50th.
Which one there are two . One where the take out window was and the other closer to the Entrance to Beacheas and Cream ?Oh! I forgot to post this last night, I saw it when I was walking to Beaches & Cream for dinner.

We love the YC! I have it reserved right now in case I can't switch to a 1 br at BCV. With 2 kids, the 1 bedroom with the extra space (and in room laundry!) would make our vacation more enjoyable for us. One thing that is super important to DH and myself is a balcony. Do all BCV come with an outdoor space?Opinions needed please! We are currently staying at the Yacht Club w/water view. But we have an option to stay in a BCV for quite a bit cheaper.

Thank you so much !Not by the take out window. The one past that where it is a large double entrance.
