Planning a trip to Disney World definitely involves meticulous attention to detail.
You’ve booked your trip and you’re ready to bask in all the magic and immersion that a Disney World hotel has to offer! But hold on to your Mickey ears because even at Disney World, your hotel room might throw a few curveballs your way. So let’s go over a couple of annoying problems you might encounter during your stay!
As we said, even though we’re talking about a stay at a Disney World hotel, you might still encounter a couple of annoyances during your stay. To be clear, we’re not saying that you’ll encounter these with all Disney World hotel rooms, just that we’ve experienced various problems from time to time! Let’s dive right in.
Uncomfy Beds
After a long day of thrilling rides and character meet-and-greets, all you want to do is crash onto a cloud-like bed and drift off into dreamland, right? Imagine the surprise you’ll get when you find yourself tossing and turning on a mattress that feels more like pebbles than clouds!
Definitely don’t shy away from discussing this with the front desk if you’re having an issue.
The Cringiest Things We’ve Ever Seen in Disney World Hotels
Missing USB Ports
In a world where our gadgets are practically extensions of ourselves, it can feel like a cruel joke if you find a lack of USB charging ports in your room.
If they’re nowhere to be found. say goodbye to conveniently juicing up your devices and hello to a frantic search for adapters that seem to have vanished into thin air.
Make sure to pack a portable power bank or a multi-port USB charger to ensure your devices stay juiced up.
Cramped Layouts
Ever walked into a hotel room and felt like you stumbled into a real-life game of Twister? Yeah, that’s the vibe you might get with some Disney hotel room layouts. Also, over in the Value resorts, those room layouts can be smaller than expected.
The best advice we can give is to pack light and make use of the available storage.

Storage Woes
If you’re the type of guest who packs a whole arsenal of essentials, from Mickey ears to autograph books, you might find yourself faced with limited storage space in the room.
In that case, you’ll probably feel like you’re playing a high-stakes game of Tetris trying to fit everything in without causing a landslide of all your suitcases. As we said previously, it’s much better to pack light and make use of the hotel laundry if you need to refresh some clothing on the trip.

Noise, Noise, Noise
Whether it’s the constant hum of elevators, rowdy neighbors next door, or the early morning hustle and bustle outside your window, unexpected noises can make this peaceful trip feel like a chaotic carnival.
You can always pack some earplugs or a white noise machine to block out any unwanted sounds.

Wi-Fi Woes
While generally reliable, Wi-Fi strength can vary depending on your location within the resort. And since we’re always connected, dealing with spotty Wi-Fi in your hotel room can feel like a cruel form of punishment.
While we don’t have a solution for uploading your pics to Instagram while your connection isn’t the greatest, you could try to download entertainment or activities beforehand just in case.

Jesus, I don’t know what Disney Hotel your staying at to have all those problems. My family has stayed at everything from All Stars to Animal Kingdom in Studio and have never had all those problems. We have multiple devices from camera to cell phone and there has always been all the types of plugs we needed. As for the beds those mattress are change out so many times they don’t have time to get lumpy,yes there may be dents where 1000 of other have slept before us but lumpy,NO. As for storage unless your a family of 10 the amount of drawer,shelves and counter top have more than enough room for all essentials you should bring. As for noise all room a very sound proof so I don’t understand were your getting the mass of noise from even on your balcony the noise level is always been comfortable.
