Free upgrade from Pop to CB?

[Irishgrl6975]

I am currently booked for 4 days in November at the Pop in a standard room. The next 4 days are at the Poly. I chose Pop for the cost and being on the skyliner. I was just offered a free upgrade to a standard 5 sleeper room at Caribbean Beach. Since I have not stayed at either the Pop or the Caribbean Beach resort I was wondering what this group thought? Stay at Pop or take the upgrade? It is just myself and my husband on this trip.

Personally, with just 2 of you I would stay with Pop. CBR is a large resort which would likely require internal bus system to get to Skyliner.

I don’t think you need to use the internal bus to get to the skyliner. It is certainly accessible by foot. CBR has a table service restaurant & is in walking distance to Riviera & their dining options. But Pop is just a Skyliner ride away from both. CBR rooms are slightly bigger. I’d look at pictures of the rooms & check menus at both resorts & decide which you prefer.

The biggest downside to CBR for me is no elevators. I hate schlepping my luggage up and down stairs so I have not stayed CBR. The biggest downsides to Pop for me are no hot tub, no TS. A free upgrade to CBR I would be tempted to take though. We traveled with a couple who stayed there a couple years ago who loved their stay as they requested and received the section by the RIV skyliner station. That gave them quick access to the skyliner and the dining options at RIV.
