THROWBACK THURSDAY! Our First Stay at Port Orleans Riverside


Our first stay at Disney's Port Orleans Riverside Resort.  We loved the grounds, our room was great, Cast Members were great, for the most part.  The one complaint we had was it was not as clean as we were used to.  One example is, on the day we arrived, there was a coffee spill stain on the painted pavement by the elevator at the building we stayed in.  It was there for several days after, and that struck me as odd.  You normally don't see this at a Disney resort.  Normally, this situation would be taken care of by the next day.  Day two, day three, day four..........still there.  We even said something on the third day......... guess what........it was still there on the day we checked out on the fifth day of our stay.  That was disappointing, and actually just that small thing made me not want to stay again. Am I overly picky?  Maybe.  But in my defense, Disney resorts are usually immaculate, so it was just not up to their usual standards, especially even after bringing it to the attention of the front desk.
 We really prefer Port Orleans French Quarter anyway because of it ambiance, and its size.  As a matter of fact, I can now say that I have stayed at French Quarter more than any other Disney resort, and will be staying there again in November. 






 Arrival on the Magical Express brought a surprise before we ever even got into the lobby.  A firetruck outside!  




The lobby is really beautiful!

We had to wait a bit to check in, so we just walked around a while and took pictures.
