Currently at Grand Residence in SLT. Moving to Timber Lodge tomorrow for the weekend as son & gf are driving up from Oakland. Really enjoying our time here (first time) so we are trying to learn more about the properties for future visits. I did a few searches and couldn't easily find this information. Any help greatly appreciated.
- Does anyone have a map showing which bedroom configurations are in which buildings at GR and TL?
- What differentiates GR1 and GR2? We can't see any difference. There does not seem to be separate front desks, concierges, pools, etc. Since Marriott apparently bought GR and built TL, maybe there is some ownership difference that requires them to show them separately.
- Hot tub reservations (30 minutes) at GR handled well. Sign up at 0900 for a slot during day.
- We are in the "back building" so walk from front desk / valet is long w/ multiple elevators needed. You can also walk around if you don't need elevators for luggage but still a long walk.
- Village area around both is nice. Starbucks, restaurants, shops, mini golf, etc. very convenient.
- Casinos are a very short walk on the NV side if that's something you're interested in.
- Grocery store (Raleys) very short walk to stock up on things.
- Our studio is very isolated and not connected to anything. Not sure if that is representative of others. It's almost like it was an afterthought.
- COVID rules still in effect but extremely manageable. No service in room.
- Laundry is shared and doesn't appear there are many machines. That said, we've done 3 loads (2 separate times) and haven't had any difficulty.
- Gondola operation doesn't start back up until JUN 18 after we are gone.
