Disliked: Amenities
Our stay was very sad. The room was hot and very uncomfortable. I have stayed on Disney property at least 6 times per year for more than 25 years and this stay was by far the worst. I will never stay at the Contemporary again. The only thing that’s was nice about it was being on the mineral system. I’m very disappointed!
Loved our lake view room, and being able to shop at the hotel after the park closed. All the staff was very friendly even at late hours. Definitely stay again!
We really enjoyed our stay as it is a beautiful hotel, very clean rooms, excellent front desk service, convenient transportation system and good choice of places to eat. However, the one thing that needs improvement is daily housekeeping. I understand that they temporarily are not coming in to make your bed daily but should at least come in to empty trash daily and give us clean towels if needed. In the 6 days there, we only had someone come in once on day 2. I had to call down to ask them for fresh towels, toilet paper, etc. I had to empty my trash out in the hallway near elevators a few times. Also no room service yet.

Convenient transportation, well appointed modern room (garden wing)
There was a lot to do. We never left the resort area. We had shopping, dining , pools, splash pad, mini golf, water parades, fireworks , activity area with crafts and games. We walked to the Magic Kingdom. We didn’t get in a car or bus for 5 days. ,
