Hey, Jaynee! I am so glad to be able to help you again. Thank you for visiting us at the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
I just got back from an enchanted trip and we stayed at Disney's Pop Century Resort. We were excited because it had been five years since we were last there. The renovation is spectacular. So modern, so fresh, and the storage, mini fridge, bathroom vanity, and Murphy bed/table are "practically perfect in every way." Also, the solid barn door that closes off the bathroom gave my wife the privacy she needed from our sons over the previous sliding curtain. I am excited for the original
Value Resort Hotels such as the Disney All-Star Resorts to follow suit and complete this modern upgrade. Stay tuned to the
Disney Parks Blog for the latest information on this refurbishment.
Currently, Disney's All-Star Movies Resort has completed renovations on Building 6-10. These are the Love Bug section (6 and 7), the south Fantasia area building (8) and the Toy Story area section (9 and 10). The rest of the Resort hotel is still waiting for upgrades. After this Resort hotel is reimagined then Disney's All-Star Music and Sports Resort hotels will follow.
Disney Dad Tip: When you check in either online or at the front desk, ask for one of these upgraded buildings. I typically use Resort
Online Check In and receive a text that my room is ready. Once I received the text and I wanted a room in a different location at the Resort hotel. I was able to call the "further assistance" number associated with the text and they changed my room. That simple call made a huge difference in our vacation.
Jaynee, I look forward to helping you again.
Enjoy making many Magical Memories!
