Pop Century Resort Disney
Go back in time with your family and enjoy the fun of the many different centuries at the Pop Century Resort Disney World. As the name implies, each section of Disney’s Pop Century Resort is broken up into 10-year spans showcasing iconic items and phrases used during each period. The colors mixed in are vibrant and appealing and would have been seen during each era. What a neat concept to come out of the mind of the Disney Imagineers. Since it is a true Disney resort, stay on the lookout for the famous hidden Mickeys displayed around the grounds, and the larger-than-life Disney characters are shown the way they would have looked during each time period. The history of Disney has never been so much fun.
Staying at Disney on a Budget
Watching what you spend when you decide to stay at Disney World is a normal process for just about anyone. It is important to know where you can save some of that money when you travel to this Magical Place. Disney World Value Resorts allow you to keep some of that hard earned cash in your pocket but still enjoy the experience Disney wants you to have. As you walk around the Pop Century Resort, notice that Disney is attentive to everything you are viewing. Special displays of items from each century that were either used or created are displayed to generate a sense of knowing where you are at all times. Four (4) main sections cover a span of five (5) Centuries or 50 years. You will want to venture off and visit each one of these locations on the grounds while you are there just to see all of the massive items that have been created for each one. More than likely, this is going to be a nostalgic walk through the ages that adults remember the most but think about all of the stories you will be able to tell as you walk through these different themed areas with your kids.

Rooms and Suites
Looking to stay in a Family Suite? If so, you will not find any Disney Pop Century Resort suites. All of the rooms are pretty much the same style, occupying about 260 square feet each. The rooms are configured very similarly to a standard hotel room with a configuration of One (1) King or One (1) Queen Bed and a Queen Table Bed. All of the rooms also have a single bathroom but with a dual-space configuration. The sink is in one space while the toilet and tub/shower unit occupy another room with a door separating the two. Accommodations at the Pop Century Resort allow for up to 4 people in each room. Need a little more space to spread out or you just have a larger family? Consider looking at the Suite alternatives at the Value resorts that offer them. If a suite is what you need, take a look at either the Art of Animation Resort or the All Star Music Resort.

Disney Pop Century Reviews
Pros:
Most of the people who visit the Disney Pop Century Resort experience a positive feeling. Starting with the Magical Express from the Airport, the simplicity of transportation at Disney World is the best we have seen. Continued with the Shuttle service taking the family to all of the Theme Parks and this was a great experience from beginning to end. Using the online app for check-in was a breeze and the magic bands opening the doors was fun and exciting. The room was comfortable, and the food court had many options for us and the kids. The pools were large, and there was plenty of seating to relax while the kids played.
Cons:
The Pop Century Resort is Huge, and while this usually is a great thing, when walking to the Food Court or Buses to get to the Parks, it can get tiring. Because of this, I would probably stay in one of the Preferred rooms that keep you closer to the entrance next time. The 1960's area would be nice, but it could be a little louder right around the family pool. Some guests did not care for the food as much and felt that it was well overpriced. There is a refrigerator in the room, but it is pretty small.
