Everything quite convenient, loved having a bedroom, 3 beds, 2bathrooms+toilet for our family of 5. Alarm clock is cute - different characters to wake you up gently instead of a blaring alarm sound lol!
Staff members were all wonderful, smiling and friendly.. Free car parking is helpful if you have a car but don’t need to use during your stay as transport is very convenient to get to/from the Disney areas - Bus to Magic Kingdom/Animal Kingdom/Hollywood Studios/Disney Springs/Summer Winterland (same bus as Blizzard Beach), Skyline to Epcot. Although I must say, it felt like there were more buses returning to other resorts (like Pop Century and All Stars vs Art of Animation; maybe 3-4buses for every 1). Comes quite frequent though, traffic played a part on delays.. Pop Century is located next to Art of Animation so we considered taking that bus and walking back to pass through the Skyline station as the resorts share it, but we’d always surpassed our walking steps during a park visit so just waited..
Laundry mat is handy, gets very busy during the afternoon/evening as expected. No quarters needed, can pay via QR code. They have a vending machine with detergent and dryer sheets. Staff had visited whilst I was doing laundry several times to clean and sanitize machines.
Early entry to parks a great perk, saved and opted not to buy any lightening passes. We would take advantage of early entry, do a few rides and then head back to the resort to relax for a couple of hours and then head back to do more rides/parade/fireworks etc at about 2:45pm.
We kindly received complimentary access to play mini golf as the check in staff member recognized we’ve travelled quite a long way 🥹 - thank you, it was so much fun! Complimentary access to Blizzard Beach also included, unfortunately it was too cold to take advantage of it as our stay was during what seemed like an Arctic blast! 🥶
This has been our 3rd stay here, it always gives beautiful memories to take home with us 🥰

The family suite is still a bit small for a family of 6. Food are average but location is very convenient to all the parks and nearby resort.

The room is old, but it is still very convenient. It is good to take the cable car and the shuttle bus.

The facility is old, but the management is pretty good. As it is old, the room structure and amenities are inconvenient, but it is nice that the swimming pool is right in front. It is in a good location to take the Skyliner, so you can easily go to Epcot or Hollywood Studios. If price is not an issue, I recommend using Nemona Ka Dong. The Little Mermaid is a bit far from the main building. If you are using a car, the parking lot is close by.

I initially reserved a room for The Little Mermaid, but was shown to a room for The Lion King.
However, when I asked the receptionist, they immediately changed me to a Little Mermaid room.
Please note that the shuttle bus and reception are far from the Little Mermaid room.
