Anne, I just love you! You crack me UP!!!!!! I just ABHOR the rooms at the AS! There, I said it!!! I think the furniture is soooo tacky!!! I would rather it be plainer and more subdued. The bedspreads are too busy and some of the light fixtures are just too ... I don't know.
As for the rest of the resort- the food court, pool, and bus service has not disappointed us yet. I would rather stay there than offsite.
That being said, we have three "value" trips planned for next year. I am looking forward to Pop Century and I haven't stayed at ASMu yet. The Sports is my least favorite because of the theme, but the surf's up area was "cute".
