Editorial Summary

The creators evaluate Disney's Pop Century Resort as part of a seven-day series. They distinguish the property as a true value resort compared to other options. The discussion begins with a critique of the check-in process, which was described as slow. One reviewer shares a significant negative experience regarding an overpowering smell of bleach in an older room, which led to a room change. The group compares the older, unrenovated rooms to the newly renovated ones, noting that the new rooms feature hardwood floors, better bedding, and improved bathroom amenities. While the renovation process caused loud construction noise during the stay, the creators conclude that the new room designs offer excellent value. They also cover the resort's decade-themed grounds, the food court quality, and the arcade. Although the food court received mixed reviews, the proximity to Art of Animation provides additional dining options. The review concludes with a rating, suggesting the resort is a strong choice for families, especially with the upcoming addition of the Skyliner transportation system.

Creator's Key Takeaways

the first room we were assigned which we lasted I think all of about 12 seconds and yet the stench of bleach so overpowering it was literally burning my throat

the new room was beautiful it's it's hardwood floors you come in it was a queen-size bed right yeah so what they've done with the beds in the new renovated rooms is there is one standard queen bed that's always in there and so big so comfortable

I would totally ignore that and I would stay at pop century right now based on the rooms they are that nice

the tie-dye shirts among the best souvenirs I've ever gotten I've got two of them

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Request a newly renovated room to avoid bleach smells and old carpet.
βœ“Use the Skyliner for convenient transportation to Epcot and Hollywood Studios.
βœ“Visit Art of Animation for better food options if Pop Century's food court doesn't suit you.
