Pop Century Room Renovations

[DisneyRunner2009]

First things first, lucky you I am sitting at my desk, lol! Sorry about those magicband troubles, no fun at all. Is Building 5 the 50's section, Building 6, the 60's?

Building 5 is 60s. I will be heading back to the Midwest, where the temperature is -9 today.

Hi! I'm sorry if this has been asked a million times, I went back a few pages and didn't see. Which sections have been renovated as of now? We arrive in March and my husband expressed interest in seeing if we can get a renovated room so just thought I'd ask. Thank you!!

It’s best to look at post #2 and it will give you the current status of updates as well as a map of the resort.

Magic bands needed to be reprogrammed multiple times, which I've never run into before. That gets to be irritating and time consuming.

If we have the plastic gift card type passes, can we use these as a back up to the magic bands?

I have a preferred pool view booked for Feb. 10. How bad is the construction on bldgs. 4 and 5?? Any ideas to what parts of these buildings will be open? Thanks!

After cruising for a few years I am heading back to Disney . Booked with Virgin holidays as it was a bit cheaper and get the Disney Springs check in. I have booked a preferred room arriving 7th October hopefully I will get one of the renovated rooms. But can’t wait to be back at Disney!!!!!!!

I don't think anyone has reported what section of building 5 was started on first. If they started with some preferred pool rooms you'll MIGHT have a 50/50 shot since by then they may have those renovated in bldg 5 but the same preferred pool rooms in bldg 4 will be old style.

Beautiful winter sunshine for me this morning, along with a lovely -37 (with wind chill).

When I was there 12/8-12/15 the "backside" of building 5 was being worked on, not the pool side, but I didn't walk around the entire building so they may have started closing off some of the preferred pool view rooms

Can somebody tell me what toiletries are provided in the rooms? Specifically if there is shampoo and conditioner or just "conditioning" shampoo? Thanks. I am trying to travel light.

I was at Pop back in May and was provided with a bottle of shampoo, a bottle of conditioner, and 2 bars of soap each night. It’s H20 product and I want to say it was from the Sea Breeze collection.
