You’re right, that’s my favourite section too!
If you’re going in August I would hold off right now and make your request closer to your travel date. If the majority of the resort is complete by then (which is my guess) then I would request 60’s plus top floor. If for some reason there is a delay i would probably only request 60’s.
We went for a walk when we were there earlier this month and I realized how tired our favourite section was looking compared to the new parts. Looking forward to returning up our favourite section next trip after its refurbishment is complete!
