It is great. Busy with many tour groups but not annoyingly so. Food court is good. Rooms are clean though a bit small. The room size is ample enough. Look for deals as they run them often, though November may be a bit of a fetch to get a deal for. The bus service is good. The resort is well laid out and not hard to navigate. The only trouble we have ever really had at any of the All Stars has been luggage service to the room...they do not seem to want to take your luggage up front and deliver it to the room. On occasions we have had trouble with our room card key not working.

My husband and I stayed there last year and found it perfect for our needs. The room was plenty big enough for the two of us and we had a preferred room so it was close to the main hall and food court. We didn't want to spend a lot of time in the hotel so a Value made sense for us. It was a comfortable place for us to sleep, shower, and maybe eat a late dinner from the food court. The theming in the room and around the resort was loud and bright, definitely not "mature" like the GF, but it was fine with us. We had no issue with buses at all. We seemed to hit the bus stops at the perfect time and never waited more than 5 minutes for a bus. Sharing a bus with the other All Star resorts wasn't that bad at all.

Keep in mind, we went in the middle of September when crowds are lowest.

PRO:
- On Disney property so buses and all the perks that come with it
- Food Court is only a couple weeks old
- Easy walk to either Movies or Sports
- Usually the cheapest resort on property
- If you just a bed/bath, room is like the other AllStars

CON:
- Minimal Disney theme
- Feels like a Route 66 motel to us
- Layout is like no other so the main hub may be FAR from many standard rooms
- Very dark resort, am city kid but I do not feel comfortable at this resort
