POFQ lovers answer me this...
I am staying at the FQ this august for the third time. I just booked a standard room because the water view really wasn't all that special for the extra money. I have stayed in building two and building one. Two is the one to the right of the pool if you are walking from registration and building one is the one behind 2. This time I was thinking about requesting three or four to be closer to the bus stop and food court. Which building have you stayed in why or why not did you like that location?

Re: POFQ lovers answer me this...
Ummm, we were in building 5 and that was right across the way from the main building and very close to the boat and pool.

Re: POFQ lovers answer me this...
ahh building 5. Another good location. They all are actually. I just feel like over-planning the heck out of my trip right now, so picking a part room location seems like a good place to start. lol I know don't want 1,2 or 7...anything else is fine.

Re: POFQ lovers answer me this...
I don't know what number it was....but we were to the left, front building. We didn't have a water view, we overlooked a little park-like square. It was very nice. Very quiet, but close to the pool and bus stop.

Re: POFQ lovers answer me this...
We stayed in building 6 with a partial water view (asked for standard but they gave us this partial view). That building has non waterview rooms and it was nice being near the walkway on the river.
The resort is so small that nothing is really far from anything.

Re: POFQ lovers answer me this...
I have stayed in 2, 4, and 5. I LOVED building 2. We were on the top floor (2nd floor), and we were on the outside of that building, in the second room... We were two steps from the main building and around the corner from the pool. For us it was a great location. I stayed in building 5-water view, just ok in my opinion. In building 4, were were sorta close to everything, but we faced the parking lot. It was a short walk to the bus, but a little of the atmosphere was lost on seeing your vehicle. My vote would be for building 2.

Re: POFQ lovers answer me this...
I can't help you with buildings and numbers but we were about as far as we could get from the main building and I still felt we were close enough to everything.

Re: POFQ lovers answer me this...
We too are going back to POFQ! Yippee!!
Last time we were there we stayed in Building 5. We were on the top floor, had a corner room with a river view and courtyard view, it was so beautiful and peaceful and it was very close to the bus and main building, but really all the rooms are close at that resort. We had friends that stayed once but had a very different experience than us. They stayed in a ground floor room, somewhere near the main building, and they found it to be quite loud as people were always walking past their room to the bus stop/main building.

Re: POFQ lovers answer me this...
We normally don't want to be on the second floor...but this was too good to pass up. We were the second room from the steps. Since we leave early and come home late... we didn't notice any traffic past our room. We literally walked past one room, and then down the steps and about 10 steps to the main building. Through the doors was the bus stop. All in about 2 minutes! WHere ever you are here, I don't think that you can go wrong!

Re: POFQ lovers answer me this...
we were in building 4. Just a short walk to pool and boat and main building. Absolutely great for bus stop, which was so appreciated at the end of the night!

Re: POFQ lovers answer me this...
When we were there in December we stayed in building 4 and loved it! It was a very short walk to everything. I swear we were the same distance from the bus stop, food court, and pool. It's the only time we've stayed there so I can't compare it to other buildings but I would definitely be happy staying in 4 again. Our view overlooked a little courtyard, too. Very quaint.

Re: POFQ lovers answer me this...
We stayed in building 6 I think last time, and although it seems like its far away, it wasn't. It was also very quiet.
