Pop Century Room Renovations

[rstevens333]

SWEET. I had a new room in the 90s in February. It was a great location because you could just walk along the parking lot to get to the main building more quickly.

Our last room was in the 80s, we did the same thing!

We were in the 70's on the end near the buses and it was fantastic! Such a short walk to the bus stop.

Hey, all.

Is there an actual schedule of the order they're doing the building in? I have been reading this thread for months, but I don't remember seeing one. I looked at post 2 and there seems to be a bit of a pattern they're following. Reason I'm asking...we're doing a split stay the 2nd week of June. Half our trip at Pop and half at CBR. We are booked preferred for Pop. If they do building 2 next, there will still be 3 sections in building 1 that haven't been refurbed yet. But, if they do building 1 next and 2 last, we're just about guaranteed a referb room. Just wondering if anyone's seen schedule of which building will be next. Crossing my fingers for a refurb.

Can I just say a special thank you to @scrappinginontario and @HopperFan for keeping this thread going and adding to the excitement of my own trip planning. I have been following and occasionally commenting for months now, and it seems surreal to say it... but gonna be at POP! tonight!! Thank you to all who provided your updates along the way. Hoping to keep them flowing during our trip this week.

They seem to being doing it in the order they are laid out on the ground. So I would say 2 next, then 1 last.

Are there still king beds that you can request??? And if so, is the Murphy bed gone then I’m assuming? Has anyone stayed in a renovated king bed room? I’m hoping to request a king bed for my fall trip!

There are still rooms with king beds. You can still request one. King bed rooms did not, do not, and will not include Murphy beds. They're not gone, they were never there.

In lieu of the murphy bed next to the stationary bed, Kings have the beverage center.

On the other side is the dresser, and a small table with two chairs.

Well I got my room ready text while at home in NJ and got building ONE- ugh so I called right away and they were so awesome and moved me to building 10!!! Yay just gotta wait for my flight now

Ok the online request thingy isn't working at all for us, I've tried 4-5 times to choose either 70's or 80's as 1st/2nd choice, every time I check back it reverts to 60's as my 2nd choice and no 1st choice!!! so whens the best time to call,how far ahead?

I just wanted to update here - I spoke with JetBlue today to see if they would put in my requests, since I was having the this same issue. They spoke with Disney and said that the requests are already there! So it sounds like even if the requests aren't showing up correct on our end, the system has the correct request information

I did online check in for my May 29th trip. My reservation is a Preferred Pool View at Pop. My preferences included "60's room". I'm wondering why, since my reservation will automatically be in the 60's. I was afraid NOT to check it, but it feels like I just wasted one of my two preferences. Any thoughts?
