Use Caution

We just checked into Disney's Riviera Hotel. Room 8832 (west side) and very disappointed. Exposed plumbing under the kitchen sink, old style tub shower with a curtain, the bedroom closet has a cheap curtain instead of a door. The counter top microwave doesn't even fit under the shelf in the kitchen. These are not the amenities you would expect in a 5 star hotel. The only redeeming quality is that the room was very clean and had a nice view. We recently stayed on the east side and the room was very nice and what you would expect from Disney.
Dissapointed

I went to scout out the next Disney Resort /DVC to stay at and was very disappointed. Felt like just antoher fancy large cold Condo. There was no disney warmth and the gr ounds were spare and Hot. Felt like like Disney just squeezed this hotel in between the ones nearby. Youd get the same feel if you stayed at a cheaper Hotel.
