Disney Value Resorts

That was nice of you to call and check on that, Kristen!!!

We've only stayed at ASM during Halloween-time, and didn't have a problem with the buses, although I hear that can be a real problem during the summer/other holiday months.

I'm anxious to try AoA the next time we go, because there will be 6 of us. Otherwise, I think I'd try Pop to try something new.

Poppet - Have you stayed in any of the values before, or just looking to get a feeling for which one might be the best for an upcoming trip?

If going with the family, stay at the value resorts with suites. I believe these are Music & Pop. Sports and Movies do not currently have suites. We have found the suites to be perfect. It is great to have two bathrooms. Also the kids can pass out in one room, while the adults can be awake in the other. Stop by the general store and buy a six pack or bottle of wine. If you stay on the upper level, bring your chairs outside on the common hallway outside of your room, and treat it like a big balcony. If going with multiple families adjacent suites work out great too. There is a little kitchenette in each suite, which makes for easy breakfast and coffee, and clean up is a snap. Breakfast in your room saves so much time and money. Also allows one to get to the park earlier, which is so important. Generally one spends so little time in the rooms, we have found the value resorts a great deal. The biggest draw back to value resorts, is no good sit down dining options; everything is counter service; so plan your dining elsewhere by making advanced dining reservations well in advance.

AoA because I love the 2 bathrooms!

We always stay at Movies because we like the theme, but can't wait to stay at Pop! Just love the newness!
