All the value resorts are the same standard but just have diferent theming. If you have the extra money I advise staying at a moderate.......its not that much of a price diference. Seeing its your first time staying at a Disney hotel you would probably enjoy the value resorts which are all All Stars. I personally didnt enjoy the All Stars the service was horrible compared to the moderates and was just less than what I expected from Disney.

Depends..
If you have kids... I would definetly suggest the All-Star Movies. If you are traveling as a couple either the All-Star Music or Sports. They are all pretty great! We usually stay in the value resorts because it doesn't pay to stay in the real expensive ones... because you are hardly in your room anyway!

Welcome!!
IMO, I feel that the value resorts are themed to the point of tackiness... Like wdwnut said above, if you have children, then I would suggest the value resorts. Either way, I think you will be thankful if you make the choice to stay at a moderate resort.

If you have little boys as I do, there will be no convicing them that the All Star Sports is tacky. They will view it as heaven. A few tips though... request to be near the food court and to have an interior view (i.e. not a parking lot view.) These resorts are pretty spread out. If you are near the food court which is close to the bus service and you look out at a nice view, the experience will be much more pleasant. I stayed at the same hotel twice and enjoyed one experience much more than the other simply because of room placement. I have stayed at the All Star Sports twice, All Star Music once, Caribbean Beach once and The Dolphin once. Each time I brought the boys. While the Sports was not my favorite, it certainly was the childrens.
On my last trip we stayed at the All Star for 10 nights. For the same money at a Deluxe resort I would have stayed 3 nights. I thought is was a smart buy.

the all star movies cant be beat!!
it has the most disney flair
the rest of the resorts feel more like a regular
hotels. some to the extent of "snobbiness" the ASmovies has all the atmosphere of
disney all the time.
it is great for families.
i noticed you have a dalmation on your i.d.
you would love the 101 dalmation themed rooms
go for all star movies, great time, and less
expensive.
heck how many hours will you be in your room?
by the way i have stayed in WL, and POLY
and i am choosing to go back to movies march 2002!!

All Stars have the same basic floor plan as the moderates. The Stars are nice and have good food. You want bad food....Mc Donalds is within walking distance of all three. What you want to do is ask for rooms in the closest building to the main entrance... It is the one with the Caribean theme at Music and the Surf theme at Sports......Ski Ya!

They all look the same to me!
Sorry but I just hate the Value Resorts because the people seem so cheap. Sorry, no offense to anyone out there.

Value rooms
Our last visit was in May and we started with All Star Sports and then ended at Wilderness Lodge Villas. We are going again in Dec. and are doing only sports this time. For the amount of time WE spend at the hotel, it made more sense for us. My personal opinion about the food court is this, sports had bigger selection than WL and more space. It all depends what YOU consider important and where you want to spend your money, at the parks and other events or the room.

I just think that the All-Star resorts are not good looking. They only have a food-court and have barely anything to do there. Plus I just don't like the over-size versions of Cowboy Boots and Jukeboxes (Pop-Century Resort Coming March 2002).

Make sure you add a comment on your reservations under preferences that you want to be near the food court (which is near transtportation and the bottomless mug refill center.) The all Stars are really spread out and if you are near these you will have a much better time. I have been both near to these and far from these and the experiece at the resort was much diffferent when you had a long hike from the bus stop to your room at the end of the night. Have a good time!!!
