    I'll be staying at the all star sports in nov, theres 5 of us so we had to book 2 rooms, the port Orleans rooms have a trundle bed so we could all fit in 1 room and upgrade to a nicer resort, for same price, wil it be too small for 3 adults&5&2 yr

    It really depends on how cozy you are willing to get, Rachel.  Size-wise, the standard rooms at Port Orleans Riverside run about 314 square feet as opposed to the 260 square feet rooms at the value resorts.  Admittedly, it's not a ton of space.  That said, my family of six stayed in a single room at Port Orleans Riverside when my youngest was still young enough to sleep in a portable crib.  It was most definitely a tight fit, but we're a close family and so it worked out just fine for us, especially since we tend to spend the majority of our time in the parks. 

    If you're used to really having space to spread out and you intend to spend a fair amount of time lounging in your resort room, then you might be better off opting for the two rooms at the All-Star Sports.  But if you plan to be active park goers, and you don't mind close quarters with your loved ones, then you'll probably be fine with the one room at Port Orleans Riverside.  I hope that helps!

Meet the Panelist: Darcie, Alabama

Given your inclination to plan a magical trip, I can already tell we have a lot in common. I'm Darcie, and my friends would be the first to tell you that Disney trip planning (especially dining!) is my love language. Of course, the vacations my family enjoys today look much different than they did when our kids were little, but while some of our favorite activities have evolved, Disney destinations still top our travel wish lists. Let's work together to plan a downright dreamy vacation for your family! Learn More About Darcie
