Just my two cents...
I was not looking forward to our first value stay at Pop.... and ended up LOVING IT!!!
The rooms are great, beds very comfortable,
Pool cute, lots of options at food court, and bus service quite good. We usually drive ourselves but since hubby didn’t go (to be the driver) my son and I opted for busses and it went quite well. We usually had to stand, and the Pop busses seemed really far from park gates, but all in all worked out well.
We went back to Pop for afternoon breaks every day before heading back to parks in evening and still thought park time and transportation time worth it. I would stay at Pop again any time, Disney just knows how to make anywhere magical.
We stayed at The Portofino Bay Hotel at UO (which we were much more excited about) for the second part of our trip. The PBH is a deluxe resort- and we ended up liking Pop better!!! The food was better at PBH and the rooms bigger, but Pop was cleaner and friendlier and had better customer service.
We’d stay at Pop again any time, but forego PBH every time now.
Go figure.
