Rigman,
welcome to the DIS !!
I may be wrong but the All Star only has three resorts. They are the movies, music and sports. Of them I alwys liked the music best. If I am not mistaken Pop Century resort is a "Bonnet Creek" resort. Although the rooms and amenities seem to be relatively the same there are a couple of things I really like. One is the fact that the Icon buildings are two parts of the same whole. For example, everytime I ever stayed at Music I stayed in the maracas building but both icon vuildings had them on it. Now if you were to stay in the 1950's building one side has "Lady the other has "Tramp" and the center had a jukebox. Much better for telling someone how to get to your room, or for the kids to find their way back.
Next I like that the housekeeping room in right in the middle of the courtyard. It should always be easy to get a member of housekeeping at YOUR convenience. I haven't used the buses yet, but I just have to "think" that transportation from one is better thatn transportation from three resorts.
sorry it took so long to post I saw your thread right away but it took me FOREVER to remember the anme for the dried gord percussions mariachi instruments. Don't ya just hate brain-freeze?
