Early check in at Values?

I am a little concerned about early check in at the All Star Sports. In the guide they make it sound confusing. We'll be getting in early in the morning, so I was wondering if they will check our bags for us so we can go to the parks. Thanks for your help.

Re: Early check in at Values?

It is my understanding that all the Disney resorts will allow you to do early check-in anytime after 8AM on the day you arrive. You just dump your stuff, and they take care of all your luggage. You go to the parks, and your room is guaranteed to be ready anytime after 3PM

It's even better than that.

They give you a card-key even if the room isn't ready (For UPH, the keys are also park admission tickets). They give you a phone number that you can call. In my experience, after early check-in, the room(s) is(are) ready no later than 1pm. So, sometime during the day, you can call and get your room number, so there's no reason to go back to the desk.

And they always seem to set the room temp to the perfect setting so that when you DO get back to your room, you can just crash on the bed.

I swear that there is nothing more comfortable than lying on the bed on the first day of a WDW trip.

As long as they set the room temp to a perfect 71 degrees, that's good for me!

Re: Early check in at Values?

We have checked in early at Values and at CBR. They do indeed give you your card key. We just called the resort later in the day to find out what room we were in. Our bags were in the room when we returned. You just can't beat Disney service.

Re: Early check in at Values?

When you check in you can also ask if there are any rooms available right away. Sometimes there are and you can go right to your room! When we checked our luggage last time, we had some grocery items in bags and they even put our stuff in the refrigerator for us.

Re: Early check in at Values?

We usually check in at around 8am, and have never had a problem. We plan it this way so we can get our key cards and head right to the parks, and get full use of the days ticket.

Wow that is great service. When we stayed at the WL, we checked in early, but had to call for our luggage. It was not waiting for us. I can't wait to see what happens this trip.

Re: Early check in at Values?

It is only at the values that I have always had my room ready whenever I have checked in,whether at 9 in the morning or 5 in the afternoon.
