to Intercot!!
I'm sure you'll get lots of great info here.
What I would say about Pop is the buildings don't really matter too much. Pick whichever decade is your favorite and you'll enjoy it. There's lots to see all over the resort. The 60s building is usually the "preferred" location, but you have to pay more for it and you can usually get just as close with the 50s, 70s, or 80s if being close matters to you.

Pop
When money is tight, and we don't wish to use our DVC points, we go to POP. We usually get a preferred room which allows us not only to enjoy a king size bed buy puts us in a location usually on the pool and close to the main bldg. Our POP stays also coincide with Epcot events because of how close the resort is to Epcot. Its definetly no frills but the rooms are always clean and after all its Disney. You also can't beat the price. My wife and I are driving up for three nights next month for less than $ 300. Not bad for peak season.
Trips planned for 2016......
January..... Offfsite... Golf outing

Pop is our WDW home! We've stayed there 4 times & we love it. Planning a return there in June. If you have specific q's you can pm me. I have a resort map that might help you in choosing what building/room you might want to request.
We love the atmosphere at Pop! It's very colorful & vibrant! To me it's just pure Disney fun! Our DS's are 12 & 14 & for now it's perfect for us. We spend some time there everyday around one of the pools, usually the main pool, the Hippy Dippy pool, but for an even more quiet break, the bowling pin pool is fantastic. We usually stay in the 60's section, bldg #4 behind the Play-Do can. We always have a nice view of HourGlass Lake. Most days we get either lunch or dinner from the food court - plenty of choices there & eat pool side! The rooms are adequate, yes they are a little on the small side, and I'm sure the mods & deluxe are bigger & have more ammenities, but we'd rather spend our money on the fun stuff not the pool or where we sleep. Pop has everything we need and we really enjoy the atmosophere there!

I liked POP and would stay there again. But only if I had a car. The Bus service was horrible.

My DH and I stayed at Pop in April 2008. We loved it. The room was clean, bed comfortable. I wouldn't say it was noisy at all. We stayed in the 90's bldg right by the giant computer/laptop, which is also by a pool, and I never heard a thing.
We liked the Food Court. They had a variety of things to choose from for reasonable prices.
Some people have indicated on here they don't like the food. I thought the food was pretty good. We had bagels, fruit, pizza, hamburgers, and breakfast tacos from the food court and they were all good! When we went the bus service was wonderful. We never waited more than 15 minutes for a bus. Even when it was crowded leaving the parks to return to Pop...if a bus was crowded and left it was never more than 15 minutes before another bus appeared.
Magic is everywhere if you know where to look!
