Just returned fromPOP
We stayed at POP and we were not disappointed. The room was fine and the location was outstanding. There were just the two of us and we were there for the Food and Wine Festival, mainly. We did, of course, go to additional parks. The weather was lovely and cool. The crowds were light. POP was perfect for us this time of year, as we spend a great deal of time in the parks. If we decide to take advantage of a resort, we go deluxe or a favorite moderate. POP's food court was great for breakfast; love the oatmeal. It was also great for a quick bite. Our room overlooked the 60s pool and the lake. We are soooo glad we went with POP.

While I admit that I can still find myself rationalizing reasons to stay at Beach Club, Wilderness Lodge, Animal Kingdom Lodge, or maybe the Poly, I always find myself looking back at how happy I was at Pop (and unhappy at CR) and promising I will go with what I know worked.
Pop is great, especially for 30-70 years olds with all of the nostalgia spread around. I do worry that my kids will be like "what is this junk" when they get old enough to roll their eyes at me.

We loved loved it.. Personally why pay 3-500 a night to lay your head down on the same pillows and beds as the other resorts. Pop has the Disney feel to it. Love the big food court seating section and the gift shop is great. Really no complaints at all. Would never stay anything but Music or Pop.This time we are getting connecting rooms as there are 6 of us.But love the music suites for sure.

Ah, I am barely in my 30s but I still feel old when I look over an 8 track or atari and hear someone's kiddos ask "hey what's that thing?"

Just returned from Pop with family member ranging in age (10, 13, 15, 19, 20,48. 49 and 51 and 80) - all enjoyed our stay. Food court was great - busses very good. We had four rooms all on same hallway. Concierge was extremely helpful with plans and questions. Front desk veryy cooperative with our group arriving on different days but still getting us rooms close to one another. Great value and all my kids from the 10yr old to the 20yr old look the "old" stuff! We visited WL and my kids thought it was "boring" compared to Pop! (Of course, when I win the lottery, i will saty at WL!)

Pop
I agree with everything you said about POP! My husband and I stayed there this summer...we couldn't pass through FL without a WDW stop! We've stayed at several different resorts through the years...with and without our kids who are now 23 and 25. POP was very convenient, the rooms were modest but clean, and I thought the bus runs were really good. I too especially loved the oatmeal at the food court!!!!!!
