Re: Saratoga Springs Resort

Yes, ask to be put in The Springs. It is situated closest to the lobby and the main pool.

Llama, do you recommend that over Congress Park? CP is close to DTD.

Re: Saratoga Springs Resort

We stayed at Congress Park and it was a pretty short to DTD and the main building. I guess it depends on what is important to you on your stay.

Re: Saratoga Springs Resort

Should we put in a request so that we do not get stuck in a "bad" building or would you all suggest that we just wing it? We only stayed there once and it was much smaller then.

Re: Saratoga Springs Resort

We preferred the Springs over CP. There is a little know short cut to DD west side I'd be willing to share for a couple of shekles thrown my way.

Re: Saratoga Springs Resort

I guess it's which you prefer - the walk to DTD was only about 10 minutes from The Springs. We just preferred being closer to the lobby, food court and pool. But to each his own.

Oh yes - they have 2 bedrooms in all the buildings. All the buildings are virtually the same - just some locations are better than others. The resort is so huge - you can really be put out in the boondocks.

"The Springs" is the closest area to the main pool.
