All Star Music. I'd avoid both CBR and CSR due to the construction. The AoA room will have a long hike to get to the main building and bus stops. To me the Pop is not worth $40 more a night than ASMu. I've stayed at all but AoA and I'd definitely pick ASMu.

It would depend on your budget and your plans. Personally, I'd do either CSR or CBR. We do spend some time at the resort so the moderates just fit us better than the values, we like the quiet pools and we like the hot tub at the main pool. We like the less crowded feel of the moderates over the values. No way would I pay for AOA being more than a moderate. The construction at CSR is not as bad as CBR but even with it being more at CBR it wouldn't bother us, the majority of it is around the food court and shop and we rarely eat at the food courts.

For a quick trip in which you will not be spending a ton of time at the resort I'd go with the cheapest option which would be All Star Music. Its the only value I have not stayed at yet but will be in February so I can't speak to if I recommend it or not.

I absolutely would not stay at Coronado Springs considering the experience I had there.

I absolutely would not stay AOA LM rooms for that price due to the long walk to and from the buses.

I'd definitely consider Caribbean Beach for that price. Construction doesn't take place at night to my knowledge and that's all I'd be concerned about is when I'm trying to sleep.

I love POP but at that price I'd better be getting free dining or its not worth it.

How many will be going? If you have 4 people, CSR might be the better option because the rooms are a little bigger and you will have Queen sized beds. I don't think the construction at CSR is as intrusive as what it is at CBR. At least it wasn't when we were there in May.

However, if it's just a couple of you I would go for ASMu for the lower price.

Have a great trip!

How many are in your party? We have stayed at four of your five choices. Our home away from home resort is Caribbean Beach (have stayed over 200 nights there) and we absolutely love it. The rooms there were refurbed a couple of years ago and are slightly larger than the other moderates. If I had to choose from Music, Pop or Art of Animation, I'd say Art of Animation. We started our most recent stay at All Star Music and we didn't really care for it and asked if we could be moved. They moved us to a Little Mermaid room at AoA and it was fabulous. We didn't mind the walk at all and the room was in great condition.

Price? Hands down CSR or CBR. CSR is minimally impacted.

Too high for POP, crazy high for LM, and ASMU ... anything over $90 is too much.

If you choose CSR or POP have them write in a request for new room, make no other request.

But that is supposed to change soon, at least with regards to the food options.

And while a guest can request a new room, there is no guarantee they will get one. Both of those things need to be considered.
