Summary

Disney's Pop Century Resort offers Walt Disney World guests a charming tribute to the popular fads of the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s: the catchphrases, toys, recreation, movies, and music that defined each decade. As a value resort with Disney Skyliner access, Pop Century provides guests with three pools, shopping, dining, and Skyliner access to EPCOT, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and 10 additional Walt Disney World resort hotels (including Disney's Art of Animation Resort across hourglass lake). In this episode, we discuss everything you need to know about staying at this value-level resort, share reasons why you might want to stay here, and offer suggestions about how to decide between Pop Century, All Star, and Art of Animation.
