Early Check In Odds?

How likely is it to get a room by 1 pm? Staying at the Poly Longhouse Studios in April next year.

We’ve always been able to get a room that early when staying Deluxe or Mod but this will be our first DVC stay. Toddler nap struggles!

I’ve gotten in as early as 8AM at OKW…I think the staff felt pity on my parents and I since the hotels in Valdosta were all booked so instead of splitting the drive up, I said “screw it” and drove overnight. We arrived at 5AM, took a nap, and got ready in the pool showers around 7AM. Which I totally do not recommend. I used to be a CM, so I think that worked in my favor.

However, one time we didn’t get into our room at AKL until just past 6PM.

Usually, it’s between 3-5PM. They’ll hold onto your luggage at the desk.
