Resort Thread Disney's POP CENTURY Resort

This new info about the standard rooms is a bummer since I had just recently sent my requests via touring plans and called to add them also and of course requested a standard in 60's. If only I'd known I could have requested something else. Too late now as we check in on Friday in two days.

It wouldn't hurt to call back and update requests given this information is new this week. Can't hurt to try!

Question for those of you who have been to POP within the last few months. POP is probably our favorite resort. The last time we were there they had buses going to DHS and EPCOT rain or shine even when skyliner was running. So both options. Is that not the case anymore? I am reading more and more that if the skyliner is running, buses are not an option to those two parks. Only if they shut down the skyliner for weather.

Would love the answer to this! Thanks for your help.

What you are hearing is correct. Buses do not run from Pop (or AoA) to DHS or Epcot when the Skyliner is running. It has been this way for a number of years now.

Some standard rooms opened up for our dates and I switched to that so we could save about $200. Since I’m paying rack rate I’m trying to save where I can. We don’t mind walking a bit more. We do it at every resort. Now to decide on a room request.

When we stay Standard we always request 1950s just because we love the Theme with the Bowling Pool,Lady and the Tramp,the "bowling shoes rack" themed shower/laundry,the way cool 50s soundtrack,etc..

There are also a few rooms with a Hourglass Lake/Skyliner/high fireworks view.

The 1950s at Pop Century scream quintessential Disney!

I was just on touring plans and looking at 50s lake view. I think I will request that area.

My DD stayed in 50s when she went and said she liked the location.
