In Jambo House, the laundry facilities are located on the 5th floor, along the Zebra trail. Be sure to take your room key with you, as you will need it to get into the room.
At Kidani Village the laundry facilities are on the 2nd floor (lobby level) in the south wing, not far from the lobby, just past the arcade and community hall. It has two regular washers and one large high efficiency front loader and six dryers. Unlike Jambo House, guests do not need to use a key card to access the laundry room.

In Jambo House, just a few doors away from the laundry facilities is a room where you can take recyclables.
In Kidani Village the trash/recycle facilities are around the corner from the elevators.

Where is parking at Kidani Village?
The vast majority of guest parking is under the building. It's not really underground, it is "under building". It's ground level on what would have been the ground floor of the building. Due to the savannas, the only thing on the ground floor is the Sanaa restaurant. The lobby, library, etc. are on the 2nd level and the guest rooms are on the second level and above. The under building parking extends all the way along the building. You enter near the end of the south wing. If your room is in the north wing, you just drive all the way along underneath the building.
There is some parking in front of the building. The valet lot is out front and to the south of the lobby and has numbered parking spaces. Further south (where you enter the under building lot) is a lot for oversize vehicles such as RVs or cars with trailers. There is check-in parking near the main entrance (30 min limit). Just north of the lobby and on the ground level there are some handicapped parking spaces.
All of the publicly accessible lots have handicapped parking spaces.
