Pop Century...yes or no

[DisneyShack]

Going for a short trip April 18-21 and have some questions:

- What building would you recommend? Since we have 2 small children we would like to be close to a bus stop.

- Is it noisy? Are there cheeleading groups, etc. like the All-Stars?

- How are the pools? Are there slides?

- Would it be better to go to a moderate? If so, Coronado or Port Orleans?

Thanks.

The Preferred Buildings (the 60's) are the closest to Classic Hall and the Food Court. The 50's and 70's are second closest, and the 80's/90's are third closest. (If you cut through the parking lot, they're not far at all)

As for noise, if you get a pool view room, there might be some daytime noise. We do not have big groups like the All-Stars. They're keeping them.

We have three pools, but no slide. The Hippy Dippy pool is the main pool, and has sprayers on the side of it. The Bowling pool and the Computer pool are the two other large pools. We also have a kiddie pool with sprayers, as well as a very popular Pop Jet pool area. We're the first resort to get one (Epcot and DTD have them), and they seem to be VERY popular with the kids.


As for a Moderate... well, only you can decide whether the extra money would be worth the extra amenities. However, regardless, I'm sure you'd enjoy Pop Century very much.
