Hello,
I haven't posted for awhile but read these boards constantly! We just returned from Pop and flew Southwest. We checked in while visiting Epcot our final day using our IPhone 24 hours in advance of our departing flight out of Orlando in order to get the best boarding group. After we got back to the resort later, we stopped at check in and they printed the boarding passes for us. The next morning, we received our check out info on our door with Magical Express info. They had also printed our boarding passes so we really did not have to stop at the front desk to request a printout.
We had a great stay; did online check in, but had requested 50's section while making the initial reservation. While checking in they gave us 60's; I like that section so did not question it. We got a lake front room in building 4; really happy with location as it was quiet but a quick walk to food court and busses.
Busses were great; no problems at all. Never had to wait more than 10 minutes at most. FWI to those sensitive to smoke (as I am) during our stay they moved the smoking area from left hand side of sliding glass doors (going toward lobby) to area right side of ping pong table. Better, but there was still plenty of people smoking, especially around tables near Hippy Dippy pool bar; this was alowed to continue with no-one (at least that I saw) stopping them.

Jeanne, thank you so much for taking the time to share your POP experience. It is always nice for our many first timers to read a recent review and regular POPers just love hearing about their favorite resort!
So glad you had a great stay. I love that lake view too!
Hello Everyone,
I just wanted to thank everyone on this thread for sharing their wonderful experiences at POP.
A couple of weeks ago I was able to schedule a last minute 2 night trip to the World, and due to the short notice needed to stay at a value resort. Having never stayed at one, I turned to The Dis for help. I've been reading posts for a while and decided on POP.
I leave in exactly 2 weeks today
So happy the Thread has been helpful! What fun to have a short last minute WDW trip. Hope POP is great and you have a wonderful stay and WDW visit. Happy planning!
