Great stay but no daily maid or room service
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.

timelessly Contemporary?
We had been a little hesitant about the Contemporary, because it seemed slightly dated and somewhat "corny", but we were so wrong! As most things Disney, things were generally over-the-top. Facilities were wonderful and clean, staff always gracious, friendly and helpful. Every request was fulfilled, and even undeclared needs (e.g., a loaner wheelchair) were addressed. The hotel is pricey (not unexpected), but it has much to offer including easy (<10 minute walk) to the Magic Kingdom, obvious access to the monorail, which literally runs through the hotel building, and a WDW bus station just outside the door. Dining options that we experienced ranged from (again) pricey and over-the-top to satisfying and reasonable. This hotel was a real contributor to our now familiar Disney experience -- an almost overwhelming overall experience paired with a look ahead to the next visit. When we first arrived we were greeted with the now familiar, "Welcome home", and it felt just right.
