First trip which value resort to choose

[Susancarola]

We are taking our first trip to Disney in October. Which value resort would you pick? It will me, my husband a our 5 year old son.

Because you are a family, I would choose All-Star Movies or Pop Century. The ASMu and ASSp often get large groups instead of families and tend to be noisier. I've stayed at ASSp several times and my son loved it, but most of the people who stay at the All-Star resorts prefer ASMo. The food courts are set up perfectly for families! The busses are great too, with just one bus stop area and they run often because there are so many guests at the resort.
We will be trying POP in June/July and I can't wait! The main reason I chose to change was because of the three pools (the All Stars only have two) and the water pop jet playground area. Also, others have said they took all of the mistakes at the All Star resorts and corrected them at the Pop resort.
I feel any of the resorts you choose will be great because you will be on Disney property!
