Can someone please give me some info. on the Pop Century resort? I am staying there for six nights in May and all I know is that it is on the Disney property. Can someone please answer:
- How is the pool/hottub?
- How far is it from the parks?
- Is it clean/nice?

Also, I have heard that the parks open early for people staying on-site? Can anyone elaborate. Any info. on the Pop Century would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much! :)
 
I was just there in January and it was clean, pool was nice and it was easy (via bus) to get to the parks. About the same as the WDW All-Star resorts. Buildings are themed by decade (I was in the 70's section with 3 story tall 8-track tapes at the end of the buildings).
 

I think you'll really enjoy POP. It's the newest of the values and they have their own transportation, no sharing with other resorts. The theming is vivid and upbeat. I really liked the 50's section. We stayed in the 80's and it was a long walk with a 3yo. But the food court was nice and had abit of variety. We really enjoyed our stay and the girls are upset that we're not staying there again this year. I just want to stay at as many resorts as I can! But we will stay at Pop again. The lake is beautiful and there's a nice walking trail that goes around the property. Good luck.
 
There is also a great pop century thread that answers every question! The info. on that thread is great. I was hesitant about staying there until I read all of the great things abot the resort. :sunny:
 
I stayed at Pop Century last year and I'm staying there again this year. I thought it was extremely clean. I used the Hippie Dippie pool, since I was in the 60's section. It was huge and only crowded in the evenings. There's a kiddie pool next to it with water jets that my dd just LOVED. They played great music over the speakers in the pool area. It's the only resort on that bus line, so pickup and dropoffs at the park were really quick. The only bus we had to wait long for was the bus to Downtown Disney.

The only complaint I have about Pop Century is the confusing layout of the parking lot. But if you're not driving, then it's not a big deal. :)
