Alright all changed over to Music, no preferred rooms available so I did request to be as close to the food court as possible....cross your fingers for me!! Oh and since we couldn't get a preferred room total savings was $281!
The resort is not that big so I wouldn't be too concerned about not getting a preferred room. When we stayed there it was on a PIN and the only room type available was preferred so we were in the Calypso building and we were literally right on top of the lobby. I walked through the rest of the resort and really would have preferred to be more "away" from everything!
When we go, we're gone from the resort and at the parks every second we can be so the resort is secondary to everything for us. Pop was the first and only resort we've stayed at, and we love it! It may be true for all of them, but they tend to put our room where we request it. My favorite part is the wonderful guard at the gate that says "Welcome home!" every time we drive through. Love it!
We've stayed at POP 3 times and loved our stay every time, but this trip we will be staying longer and since ASMo was cheaper than POP and AoA, we are going to try ASMo. From the pics, I think it looks like a resort that we would love. Since we are going at Christmas, a 'busy time' I'm assuming that the 'sharing buses' will be a non issue
We haven't had to share a bus in 5 years and if so it is maybe a 10 minute inconveneince. Moveis is updated with :FRIDGES, new curtains, carpet, spreads, lights and I just read..Mattresses. The toy story and dalmations are preferred resorts very close to bussess, food court and pool. We love this resort. Stayed at sports and it was fine, but MOVIES screams disney which we love!
pop and movies are almost identical. we love both! I like the food court at pop better but otherwise theyre both great and a lot of fun. you cant go wrong with either. if you havent been to movies id give that a try.
