Standard/Preferred Rooms
have a maximum four-person
occupancy per room (plus one
child under 3 in a crib).
For each adult over 2 there
is a $10 per night charge
per person.
Each Family
Suite will sleep up to 6, plus
one child in a Pak-n-Play crib.
Are there any elevators or just
stairwells?
There are two elevators
in each building,
located next to each
other in the center of
the building. There is
also a staircase next to
the elevators, and a
room with an ice machine
just behind them. There
are also outside
staircases at each end
of the buildings, so if
you're far from the
elevators, you can use
those stairways.
Can 5 people fit in a Disney's
All Star Music room?
The regular rooms at the
Disney's All Star Music accommodate
a maximum of 4 people, or 4
people plus one child under
3 who sleeps in a crib.
These maximums are in
accordance with fire codes.
Four adults in a Disney's
All Star Music
room may find the
stay crowded and
uncomfortable. The rooms do
not have as much closet and
drawer space, and there is
only one sink and mirror.
Two adults and two children
should be able to stay at
the Disney's All Star Music in
comfort. Due to the low room
rate, you may want to
consider adjoining rooms.
The cost of the two rooms
may be lower than other
options on property.
As of 2006, All-Star Music
offers Family Suites. Each
Family Suite will sleep up
to 6, plus one child in a
Pak-n-Play crib.
What is the difference between
the room views?
"Preferred Location"
rooms at Disney's All
Star Music rates are
slightly higher than the
standard location rooms.
These rooms are the
closest to Melody Hall,
the Intermission Food
Court, and the bus
stops. Currently, only
the two Calypso
buildings (#1 and #10)
are in the preferred
category. All other
rooms are the same no
matter what view or
location you have. Your
room may overlook the
parking lot, or the
courtyard, or the Piano
Pool area. All rooms
open to the exterior
hallways.
Are there
smoking and nonsmoking
rooms?
All Disney resorts and
guest rooms are smoke
free. There are
designated outdoor
smoking areas. Check the
resort map or with a
Cast Member for
locations.
Are refrigerators available in
the rooms?
Refrigerators
are available
for a $10 fee per night;
with tax it comes to
$10.60. They are small
dorm size refrigerators
- large enough for milk,
orange juice, and a few
other items. The supply
is limited, so request a
refrigerator when making
your reservation and
then inquire when you
check in. Some of the
handicapped-equipped
rooms have in-room
refrigerators built into
the dresser units. If
you get a room with a
king sized bed, you may
be getting a
refrigerator as well.
Inquire at the front
desk.
Which building is closest to the
bus stop, food court, and pools?
Calypso Buildings
1 and 10 are
the closest buildings to
the main building
(Melody Hall)
where the food
courts and bus stops are
located. The Calypso
rooms are all in the
preferred location room
rate category. Jazz Inn
buildings are
the second closest
buildings to the food
court and surround the
Piano Pool. Country Fair
is the farthest building
from Melody Hall, but
may also be the
quietest! Country Fair
is about 3 tenths of a
mile from the bus stop,
less than a 5 minute
walk. Parking surrounds
the exterior of the
buildings, so your car
is conveniently near to
all buildings.
What food choices do I have at
the Disney's All Star Music?
Disney's All Star Music
Food Court

of sections to choose
from:
The Market - selling
grocery items 6 am to

room, and shopping. Pool
areas do not have Jacuzzis.

wide variety of water sports
and other activities such as
tennis, horse back riding,
and fishing. Call the Front

more information.
What is the gift shop like?

Disney
merchandise from
character merchandise
and souvenirs to
Disney's All Star

variety of grocery items
are also available, such
as snacks, liquor,
sundries, and beverages.
Some of the grocery
items (such as juice and
milk) are cheaper if
purchased in the gift
shop rather than the
food court. This is also
the location where your
items will be delivered
if you chose resort
package delivery at any
of the theme parks.
When is check-in/check-out time?
Disney's All Star Music
check-in time
is 4:00pm, and check-out
time is 11:00am. Late

What can the Guest
Service desk provide for me?

arrange dining
reservations, sell park
admission tickets, and
answer a variety of
questions regarding the
Walt Disney World
property.
Foreign currency can be
exchanged at the Front

help you rent a car,
send flowers and help
you out with maps.
Are connecting rooms available?
Yes, however, you must
request connecting rooms
when making your
reservations. Connecting
rooms are not
guaranteed, but every
effort will be made to
honor your request. They
will guarantee
connecting rooms only if
small children will be
staying in the separate
room without an adult.
Make sure to explain
this arrangement
to your Disney
Travel agent.
Will I be able to do laundry?
Yes - coin operated
laundry facilities are
located near both the
Piano and Guitar pools.
Coin operated washers
are $2 per load. Dryers
are $2 per load for 30
minutes. There is no
option for any
additional drying time
except to insert another
$2.00 for another 30
minutes. Detergents are
available for purchase

Additionally, laundry
bags are available in
each room. By completing
the attached laundry
list and dropping the
laundry off at the Lobby
Concierge desk by
8:30am, same day

available. This laundry
service is offered 7
days a week, including
holidays.
Are there safes in the rooms?
Yes, every room at
the Disney's All Star
Music resort has
a key operated safe. The
safe is small. Larger
safekeeping boxes are
available at the Front
Desk. You will be
charged a fee if you
lose the safe key.
I want to stay in a quiet room,
which building should I stay in?
Typically you do not hear
significant exterior noise
from the rooms, however,
noise levels can vary. The
All Stars attract many
families with young
children. In addition, the
All Stars are favorites with
tour groups, cheerleaders
and dance competitors. To
avoid noise, try requesting
a room in either Jazz Inn or
Country Fair, get a room on
the third floor or request
to face the small wooded
areas.
What are the pools like?
There are two pools at
Disney's All Star Music. The
main pool located between
the Calypso buildings is the
Guitar Pool, so named for
the shape it is. The Kiddie
Pool is also located here.
The Guitar Pool is not a
zero entry pool. It has
stairs used to enter on
either end of the pool. The
maximum water depth is 5
feet and the minimum is 3
feet. There is a squirting
fountain on a raised island
in the middle of this pool
that features the characters
from Disney's "The Three
Caballeros".
The quieter pool is the
Grand Piano Pool located
between Rock Inn, Country
Fair and Broadway. The Grand
Piano Pool is also not a
zero entry pool. It, too,
has stairs to enter and exit
on.
Both pools list their hours
as 8:00 am to 12:00
midnight, but this may
change depending on season.
Life vests for youngsters
may be checked out of the
Arcade for the length of
your stay. Diapered children
are required to wear swim
diapers or rubber pants.
Are there towels at the pool?
What about hair wraps?
Disney's All
Star Music Resorts do not
provide towels at the pool.
You must take the towel from
your room. Housekeeping will
bring additional towels, if
you call and request it.
There is a hair wrapping
station by the guitar pool.
It opens early in the
morning, normally around
9am. Sometimes there is an
additional hair wrapping
station located inside
Melody Hall between the food
court and the gift shop.
Inquire at the Lobby
Concierge Desk for hours and
pricing.
Are there Hairdryers, Soap and
Shampoo/Conditioner in the room?
Hairdryers are not included
in each room, but are
available upon request. Call
Housekeeping to request a
hair dryer. Disney's All
Star Music has shampoo and
body wash dispensers in all
showers. You are provided
with a small Mickey hand
soap to use at the sink.
What other things might
I want to know about the
Disney's All Star Music resort?
Rooms with one king
sized bed or two double
beds
are available at the
Disney's All Star Music
resort. The
king sized rooms are
equipped for travelers
with disabilities. As a
result, the bathroom
area is enlarged to
allow wheelchair access.
Therefore, the room area
seems quite small. A
crib will not fit
comfortably in a king
sized room.
Rooms are equipped with
one sink and one mirror.
The sink area is outside
the bathroom. The one
sink/one mirror can
cause a logistical
nightmare in the morning
(especially is you are
traveling with
teenagers), so plan
accordingly.
You are charged $.75 for
each local call you make
from your room. This
$.75 charge is also
charged for 800 number
calls. You will not be
charged for calling any
location on Disney
property. There is a
substantial charge for
making long distance
calls.
Irons aren't standard in
the rooms, but you can
call housekeeping &
request an iron &
ironing board.
There are no Kids' Clubs at
the All Star Resorts.
