Disney World's BEST Value Hotel?! Pop Century Resort | Room Tour, Food, Skyliner Full Review

My best Disney memory happened at Pop Century. Back in 2013 my best friend finally talked me into applying for my dream job with Disney. After filling out both of the applications I was invited to come to an in person interview on a day of my choice.. I never stayed at Pop at that time and my friend (the same one that got me to fill out the application) talked it up so I figured t's a quick 2 night trip. I'll give it a try. The plan was to fly in the day before the interview and fly home the day after. I decided to take it easy that night so I just chilled at Pop. Out of character for me since I usually hit the ground running. I was wearing my blue Tinker Bell shirt with my name (Tony) on it that was given to me my my friend (yes the same friend) which again was out of character for me. I usually start a trip wearing my Ariel shirt. They were showing Ratatouille at poolside which at point I had never seen before so I went to watch it. Halfway through the movie the project quit and they couldn't fix it so the rest of the movie was cancelled. Slightly bummed I went to the food court to top off my drink and along the way I pass by a boy and his Grandma. I overheard the boy ask why the movie stopped. Always wanting to help I told him what the CMs told me about the projector. Suddenly the Grandma's eyes fill with tears and she locks in a bear hug so tight I almost couldn't breathe. She then explained her son named Tony who loved Tinker Bell recently passed and she prayed for a sign he made it to Heaven ok. My eyes filled with tears too. I didn't end up getting the job, but I don't think I was supposed to. I was however meant to be at that place at that time in that shirt.

No one can change my mind as a 90’s kid Pop century is my favorite resort the sky liner and different decades are amazing!!

You mentioned doing a video where you got groceries delivered. I think that would be super helpful to watch an operational video on y’all getting groceries, getting to the park early for rope drop, etc. y’all have so many good tips and tricks

“what’s your handle” probably refers to CB radios. Long haul truckers had nicknames or “ handles “ which they would use to identify themselves to other truckers on the road. After the movie “Smokey and the Bandit” came out in 1977, people in regular cars jumped on the bandwagon and there was a huge surge in popularity in CB radios. This was before carphones and WAY before cellphones

I love the little kid energy of "let's go pose like them" and then running over there 😂❤

Molly is the best. I started watching Molly for her resort review videos. I love them, and when she gives us information to help us make our next visit to WDW the best.

This video makes me so happy. I stayed at Pop for the first time in January and i'll be staying there again in a few weeks. The resort is so much fun and for being a value resort, its got a lot to offer. This just makes me all the more psyched for my trip

Pop Century is our favorite value resort but the Skyliner closing before the end of Jollywood Nights is another example of how that party doesn’t stack up to Very Merry Christmas Party. Can you imagine the boats and monorail not running thru the end of MVMCP?

“Time is a weird soup” YES ALAN FOR THE FEARNE QUOTE!😂😂😂😂 I love Critical Role

We loved having groceries delivered here. It was so easy. We would pick them up at the end of the day. My hubby took our stroller to load it up and push the stuff back to the room. But you can have bell services bring it to you room and tip them.

would love to see the instacart process when staying at the hotel that was a great idea Molly

We love POP!! My girls and I would stay there (even before the Skyliner) prior to joining DVC. Price was usually $99/ night and quick bus routes to the park without inner loops like the All Stars. Reliving the memories…so “groovy” & “swell”!🥰

I Love POP CENTURY!!!! We have stayed in the 50s area in the Jukebox building. The Trip we stayed at POP is when my Hubby PROPOSED!!!! ❤❤❤ So Pop has a Special place in my heart

This hotel holds a special place in my heart because I stayed there the week that the world shut down in 2020. The parks closed but the resorts remained open until the end of the week. I will never forget swimming in the 90s pool that ghost town week, and there were kids in the pool that thought the Animal Kingdom Opens Today headline was real and got excited for a second that the park was open again. I was the one who broke it to them, that headline is from before they were born.

The Mickey waffles are made with the golden malted waffle mix! That company is from my hometown. You can order the mix online as well!

Hi Molly, the "glitter tile" is Terrazzo, a ceramic product poured in place then polished to a tile-like shine.

I have so much fondness for pop! It was my “home resort” as a kid in the 2000s, and I’ll always love it 🌈

The blues clues cameo in the nineties case has my childhood heart crying

I had that Sony Walkman as a kid and I was astounded that the cassette tape would “auto reverse” which meant you didn’t have to open it, flip the tape and close it again. Can you imagine handing that to a kid today and saying “have fun”?😂😅😂

Oh my gosh. When I heard about Disney Channel night at Disneyland you were the first people I thought of! Hoping you all can go and give us a video! 🤞
