This newbie Has A Question: Value Resort Hotels

AshBriSmi · Mar 31, 2015

Does anybody have any preferences of any of the VRH's? I have stayed at ASM however, I would like input from other DISer's if ya'll have some input for me!

Pop Century is my favorite followed by Art of Animation.
I do not stay at the value resorts very often, but when I was last at POP a couple years back I was actually quite impressed.

I have stayed at ASMo, ASMU (2x), AoA (2x) and POP, and have never had a problem. From value to deluxe, I have never experienced a problem. The rooms have all been clean, the grounds well maintained and the food decent. I hope this helps.

Thank you so muc

Thank you for your input... Have you stayed at All Star Music before, if so how does it rank with Animation??

POP is our favorite as you can see by my signature, and once AoA offers discounts on LM rooms I'll be trying there as well.
AllStars our preference would be Sports or Movies.
AllStar Music is our least favorite resort on property and no plans to return.

AoA truly is a Value Plus and you almost can not compare it to the others.

Pop is our favourite.
AofA is second.
AllStar Music is a distant third.
I haven't stayed at Sports or Movies.

POP - Great time there in January 2012
All Star Movies- Surprisingly quiet stay in May 2010.

I've never been to AoA, but I've heard great things.

Thank you for your input, i really appreciate it! When we went to Music it was nice but I was pretty young...

Out of all the values ASMo is our favorite as you can see by my signature. ASMu is our least favorite and we haven't stayed at AOA yet. ASMo is the smallest of the values so less walking to the food court and buses.

We loved our AoA stay. At POR two weeks ago we were all pining for AoA. :confused3

We would love to try Pop - it seems to get good reviews - but as a family of 5 our choices are limited.

My family is a family of 6.... (I'm 17, so I don't get much of a say when it comes to planning as I don't pay for the trip) but I know our choices are also limited.

Yes it's a bummer. We'd prefer values not just for the money saved, but because we love in your face Disney theming

.

AoA is a more expensive value (especially the suites), but it is so worth it. The theme immersion is fantastic!!

Absolutely!! And thank you so much for taking the time and answering my questions, I truly appreciate it!

We've only stayed at POP and AoA, but enjoyed both of them. I liked AoA more, probably just because I'm a huge Little Mermaid fan :teeth:

. The walking at AoA was a little much, but definitely doable, and not really that much further than our walk at POP.

okay, thank you so much for getting back to me! I appreciate it all!

We stay (almost) exclusively at Pop, and we travel fairly frequently. Usually just overnight or two night trips, so a value is perfect. We've probably stayed in every building at Pop, and haven't had any real issues with the rooms. We did have some issues with our magicbands the past few times we stayed there though - not the resort's fault. We love the theming! Bus service is decent, and they have King cupcakes at the bakery

We did stay at AoA once in a LM room. I thought the theming was awesome, but the bathroom was really dark. The walk to the LM rooms was a bit much at the end of the day as well.
