Sad to be here....just back from Pop

[StrollPatrolMom]

I'm really surprised HOW sad I am to be home...we had a magical time! Even though I'm not 100% sold on the Disney "value" resorts...Pop was an adequate hotel for the price. The bus transportation got to be way too much with 2 little kids, the Pop food court just isn't my personal style and was crowded, and the amenities were fairly bare bones....but for the price, it is a good value. Rooms were clean, staff was helpful, pools were fun, and our kids enjoyed the themeing. Next year, we're going to remedy the two things that bothered me about this year...we're staying longer, and we're upgrading to AKL.

I think for the money, Pop is a great place for families.....but as the saying goes "you get what you pay for" which I hopw will also hold true next year! Happy to answer any questions!

We have stayed at the Music twice and we will be 3 in a few weeks, this time we are staying with our 2YODD. We have really enjoyed it, (we love music) and I think for the kids its cool because its so "Animated". My daughter LOVES music too so I think she'll have fun. You do get what you pay for, but we figure we spend so LITTLE time in the Hotel we would rather spend the extra on dining plans and fun extras. The only thing I am NOT fond of staying there is the Bus situation, we always seem to have to wait way more for All Star Buses.
One of these times we will get our act together and get a Vacation Club membership.

Just got back from POP yesterday, and usually stay at BWI, I couldnt agree more with everything you said, except for the fact we did end up renting a minivan because we have a 1,2 & 3 year old. I didnt book a bounce back because I wasnt sure where I wanted to stay, now I am regretting it.

I agree also. The first time we went and stayed there it was ok, didn't notice the little things. Just got back a few weeks ago and had a great time, but I want more, so we upgraded to a moderate for next year. I was also depressed when I got back so next year we are staying 12 nights and I am having fun planning for next year.
