Disney World is the Most Magical Place on Earth!

And one of the best ways to stay even closer to the magic is to stay at one of the many Disney World Resort hotels! As a guest of a Disney World hotel, you can take advantage of tons of perks like advance Lighting Lane reservations, a free water park visit on your check-in day, Early Theme Park Entry, and free transportation! Although all of this is so nice, sometimes weird things go down at Disney World hotels.

We asked you, our amazing readers, to share stories of nightmarish things you have witnessed at Disney World hotels, and let’s just say we hope we never have to see what some of you all saw!

Over at All-Star Sports, a reader shared that they found a cockroach in their bathroom and a horrible sewer smell by the pool. The good news is that they had a great experience at All-Star Movies and Music and would stay at an All-Star Resort again!

Another reader shared a crazy experience they had while staying at the All-Stars as well. They said that the room was kept up poorly, curtains were falling off, and only a few electrical outlets worked. But the story gets even worse; their blow dryer caught on fire and ended up burning a hole through the wall. Disney sent someone to replace the outlet, but they were not able to move rooms. Unlike the reader above, this reader doubts they will ever stay at an All-Star Resort again.

One reader shared that two years ago when they arrived at their hotel room after checking in, they noticed that blood was smeared on the wall. Disney did end up moving their room, but they were still shocked that it was not cleaned prior to them checking in.

Over at Animal Kingdom Lodge, a reader’s daughter got into bed for the night and realized that her bed was wet. Grossed out, they found out it was urine and that the housekeeper only changed the top sheet and not the mattress pad. It took over an hour for new sheets to be delivered and changed.

Although this reader did not share which resort they were staying at, their hotel room did not have any running water, and it took someone over an hour to fix the problem. A similar plumbing issue happened at Old Key West about 15 years ago, as a reader told us that their toilet got backed up around 6 PM. They were told no one could come and fix it until the morning.

If you did not know, Old Key West, the original Disney Vacation Club resort, sits on a golf course. A reader told us that every morning during their “vacation” at Old Key West, mowers started to run loudly between 5:30 and 6 AM, which obviously would wake them up each morning. They called to see if they could move to the side of the resort without the course, but they were told no. Lesson learned: if you are a light sleeper, avoid staying at a resort with a golf course.

On their very first trip to Disney World in 2012, this reader’s hotel had issues locating their luggage. When they returned to their resort from the parks at 10 PM, two pieces of luggage still could not be found. It was not until midnight when all of their luggage finally arrived.

The Grand Floridian is known as one of Disney World’s nicest resorts, as it is a Deluxe Resort that overlooks the Magic Kingdom. Unfortunately, a reader shared that when they stayed at the Grand Floridian, they experienced black sludge bubbling from the faucets and shower.

Over at the Cars section of Art of Animation, a reader had to deal with cockroaches coming out of the kitchenette area of their room at nighttime.

PHEW! That is a lot of nasty stories! But probably the scariest of them all was shared by a reader who said that the most nightmarish thing that they ALWAYS experience at Disney World is the car service pulling up to take them back to the airport at the end of their trip. It sends shivers down our spines! There is nothing worse than the Disney blues!

Things happen at Disney World hotels, just like they do at any hotel. In our experience, we have always had a clean and well-maintained hotel room, and we always look forward to staying at Disney World resort hotels!
