strange DVC laundry question

Reading Wishy's soggy soggy TR and hanging her jacket from a light fixture in hopes of it drying, got me thinking. Has anyone had a room close to the laundry rooms at any DVC's? If I had a soggy clothes and tried to dry them at 12:30 A.M., would I be bothering you? I don't even know if the laundry rooms have hours of operations. I just always did wash in the afternoon, so I never noticed any signs. Just want to be prepared since Sept is still soggy weather time.

Re: strange DVC laundry question

We used the laundry room by the quiet pool by Congress Park- I do not remember any rooms being close to it- just a bathroom and some vending machines!!

Re: strange DVC laundry question

I've used the laundry room at SSR and BCV and I don't see it bothering anyone, especially SSR since it's in a building that didn't have rooms close to it. I'm sure the walls are think enough at BCV that you would be fine.

Re: strange DVC laundry question

hehe, I should clarify! I hung the jacket on the fixture because I was WAY too tired and lazy to walk to the laundry room. It was late & still raining. I did end up visiting the laundry room on my last night because a lot of my clothes were wet & I had to pack! When I called the front desk to ask what time the laundry room closed she told me as long as you have your room key to get in you're fine. I was in there about 10pm and there was another couple using the washers & dryers with me. The laundry rooms are located next to the Community Hall at SSR so even if you used them late at night you wouldn't be bothering anyone.

Re: strange DVC laundry question

Thanks for the info. It's just one of those things that I never thought of. And I don't want to be part of someones TR where they say "some rude person was drying clothes at midnight"

Re: strange DVC laundry question

If I remember correctly, at BCV the laundry room was squashed between a lobby (elevators) and a storage room.

Re: strange DVC laundry question

I've obviously remembering wrong, but I think I remember there being a double stacked washer/dryer combo in the room at SSR. Was this just in the one bedroom "suite"?

No, you are right! The one, two bedrooms and grand villas have washer/dryers in the rooms. The studios do not but have free use of a laundry room.

Really?? I thought although DVCers in a studio had to go to a laundry ROOM, that the washer and dryer were FREE to use.

Re: strange DVC laundry question

iluvwdw, the laundry room and the machines in it are free for people staying in a studio. Only the larger rooms have washers/dryers of their own.

Yes, I meant they do not have them in the studio room, but they have free use in the laundry room.

Whew! I was trying to figure out where I had seen that if I were wrong. Good to know that I wasn't imagining things.
