Hmm -- at Disney, there are several types of disability-adapted rooms. Some have walk-in showers, some have handle-bar-only showers. All can have special commode-bars put in upon request, as well as bed-rails. The room is always on the first floor. The rooms always have a king-size bed, though, which has something to do with fire regulations and the space needed for a wheelchair. But, whenever a guest comes and has family members with them, Disney blocks out the room next door and guarantees it to the family. The computers are programmed to book the "rooms next door" last if at all possible and the disability rooms are booked by hand, never by the computer.
I think that the hotels where the disability rooms are on the second floor ought to be reported to the ADA or OSHA or whatever governing body controls that -- that's just *wrong*.
