Delightfully Surprised!
Last year, we received excellent rates for a deluxe resort, except for our last night. Since it was just one night, my husband thought we should stay at the POP to save money. We were very pleasantly surprised when we arrived. Strangley enough, besides the lack of slides, my kids prefer this hotel over any other. They love the brightly themed buildings and large Disney icons. My oldest son loved the squirting flowers in the main pool and both my boys loved Goofy's water playground. And don't even get me started about the arcade...I couldn't pull my boys out!
My hubby and I don't usually mind where we stay but we like the moderate and deluxe resorts because their grounds are so beautiful. Well Disney out did themselves on this value resort. The walk way by Hour Glass Lake is very pretty - especailly at night. This hotel is definitely a great Disney deal! This past trip, we stayed at the POP our entire vacation. We loved it, plus the money we saved allowed us to stay 2 extra nights and splurge a little at the World of Disney! :)
