ASMo vs ASMu for 1 night

[ProudMommyof2]

We are going to stay at a Value for our first night (travel day) before checking out bright and early the next am to take a cab to Poly and check in and start our package. I have narrowed it down to these two. We will be laying low that day, taking a swim and perhaps going to DTD for a while. I am not looking for much, but which has better theming or is more interesting to explore? Which has a better pool? It will be me, DH, DS9 and DD7. Thanks!

ASMO, I think your children will enjoy the theme here much more.

All the kids love to sit in the Buzz Lightyear "car" and have their pic taken
Really cute...

Kids tent to like Movies more, because the icons on the buildings are more recognizable to them - Dalmations, Herbie, Toy Story characters, etc.

Aside from the theme and decor, ASMO and ASMU are right next to each other, so location is not much different, their rooms are the same, the buildings are the same, the main halls (Cinema Hall and Melody Hall) are nearly identical, and the offerings in their food courts are identical, too. The biggest difference between the two, aside from theme and decor, is overall layout - Music is laid out in a symetrical straight line, placing some of the buildings far from Melody Hall, while Movies has the buildings in several clusters that bring more of them close to Cinema Hall but fewer close to the parking lots.

Look here for maps of the Value resorts:
