Disney's POP CENTURY RESORT Information & Questions

[scrappinginontario]

Does anyone know if all the rooms at Pop will be done by September?

My guess is that they should be almost done by Sept. Either working on the final building in Sept or, very close to it. Personally guessing refurbished to be finished November-ish.

Does anyone have any pics of the pack n play in the new Pop rooms or, alternatively, have an measurement of the spaces on either side of the dresser? We are wondering if it is possibly to put a toddler sized bed there. I have heard it can be done between the Murphy bed and the door, but I'm not super comfortable putting it there.

So POP randomly comes up as an option for the dates I select in July then minutes later will disappear and say no availability......it's done this multiple times over the past few weeks. Is it just a room becoming available due to someone canceling and I'm not quick enough to snag it?

I'd rather stay at POP than Music (the price was barely even more). Worth it to keep checking? How often does the availability refresh? Would I have better luck calling?

I would call once a day. Or, add a couple more days to your dates and see if they have availability then. If they do, you can book it, then call and cancel those extra days you have booked.

If you can't get a dessert, I would grab a bottled water to take to the park.

So I have to add an extra 3 nights to the end of my reservation for it to become available. So I can just cancel those nights with no penalty? The rooms are clearly available for the nights we are actually going to be there so is there a 7 night minimum to book or something? Doesn't make sense.

Or a bottled alcoholic beverage to enjoy in the room at a later time.

That’s what I was going to say and then my phone went wonky. Great minds.

If I were you, I would just call and see if they can book it for you.

I would call and book the nights you want to stay. If you explain what happened with adding unwanted nights and the phone person can’t book they may be able to talk to a supervisor and get you booked that way. I had to split a long stay into three bookings and they called a supervisor to blend two of the bookings together - something I and the phone person were unable to do

I know this was a hot topic last year. But does POP have soap dispensers or bottles?!?

Soap dispensers in the Tub/Shower. Bar soap by the sink.

If you go here and scroll down, @Haley R recently posted pictures that include the dispensers. We really liked them!

We like hoarding bottles. Not happy. Oh well. So no more conditioner?

as the photo shows, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash.

Yes, you can cancel those extra nights

Would it change the per night price? I've noticed the per night price completely changes depending on dates and number of nights. I'd hate to drop the 3 nights, and then have the per night price skyrocket.

 

[scrappinginontario]

I would do what others have recommended and call as you can ask them all the questions we are unable to answer. Prices change per night based on what night of the week you are looking at. Weekends and holidays are more expensive than week nights. I really think a call to Disney is needed to see what they can help you book.

We also hoarded the bottles and I’m sure that’s why they got rid of them. I can’t stand the smell of the products now. That sea smell just doesn’t agree with me.

There’s conditioner.

You could still hoard the product, just not the bottles (supply your own).

Does bell services allow you to borrow a cart to bring in your stuff? We will have a car so there will be odds and ends.
