We've stayed at All Stars before, but never at the new Pop Century. Has anyone been to both? If so, can you compare them on items like check-in, room size and cleanliness, and pools. Plus anything else that may have an influence.
I've stayed at all the Values. Out of the 4 I like PC and ASmovies the best.
PC has more rooms than each of the All-Stars. So checking in can take longer. When we went in May I think I wait about 30-40 mins to check in. Checking into ASsports in April was about 5-10 mins.
PC because there are more rooms there are more people using the bus system. But then again if the All-Stars' are sharing a bus thats a factor too.
I do prefer the food courts at the All-Stars resorts I just think they have more of a selection. DD11 loves her mickey waffle sundaes that are not available at PC.
To me the rooms seem a little smaller at PC but I think its because the beds are closer to the door but there is a bigger gab between the 2nd bed and the adjoining bathroom wall. Its a narrower gab at All-Stars.
I've never had a problem with any Disney room being unclean.
It sounds like I prefer All-stars. I don't know which I prefer but I do know that since PC has opened we have stayed there 3 times and once at Allstars. If you choose PC go for the 50's or the 70's buildings they are closer to parking, lobby and bus stops.
Sorry that I can't answer that for you right now, but I leave for my first stay at POP in 2 weeks. I'll be more than happy to share once I get back. I've also stayed at ASMo & ASMu. (I notice we're neighbors. )
