    How long does it usually take to get from a Value resort to one of the parks on the busses? Is there any other ways for the Value Resorts to travel? I like the look of Pop Century best but will stay at other value resorts if it means shorter rides/waits.

    Each of the value resorts provides bus transportation to the WDW theme parks, Downtown Disney and the water parks.

    All Star Movies, All Star Music, All Star Sports and Pop Century all transport guests via WDW motor coaches.

    One of the reasons that guests choose the Pop Century over the other value resorts is that it has its own bus route. It does not share with other hotels. The single bus stop at this resort is seen as an advantage to many guests. However, I think the single bus stop tends to create longer lines.

    I am a huge fan of renting a car while at WDW. When the buses work well, they are tolerable. Otherwise, I find the wait times to be extremely long and the overcrowding to be less than magical.

    The All Star resorts do share buses at times. However, during busy periods such as mornings a dedicated bus is sent to each resort.

    I'll tell you that my Mom had better luck with buses to Pop Century last June than we had going to and from the Grand Floridian.
