Title: Tell me what you think...

Ok, I sure some on you have seen the great offer Disney has right now for families. If you book 4 day you get 3 for free and if you travel between 1-4 to 1-19 & 1-19 to 3-29 you get a $200 gift card. That make the package for 2 adults, 1 junior, and 1 child (which fits my family perfectly) $1271 with a $200 gift card for a week!!!!!
Now the few times I've be to WDW I've stay at the Fort Wilderness Cabins (we love that it's like our own like house) or we have stayed at the Polynesian Resort.
This package deal is only for the Vaule Resorts ( those include Pop Century, All-Star Movies, All-Star Music, and All-Star Sport.) and I have never stayed at any of them so I'm hoping you all can give me some feed back which of the Vaule Resorts (if any) you like the best and why?
Thanks for you help and thoughts. ;)

Awesome deal!!!
I would stick with the Pop Century resort. It seems to be the better of the value resorts. The All Star Resorts usually draw crowds of large tour groups, so the food courts and pools fill up with lots of people at the same time.
I have stayed at the Pop, and enjoyed it very much. The themeing is really fun!!!

I took my mom a few Christmaseses ago, and wanted AK lodge but I couldn't afford it, we then shot over to one of the all stars, and after a sweet AP discount, we were in for about 65 a night or so..
We went bonkers just to be staying on property lol.. the room was good.

I would also recommend sticking with the Pop, but the All-Star Movies was good. As Friend said the pools and food courts can get packed, and if your there during an event (like the Pop Warner Football and Cheerleading championships :omg:) its likely to be extra packed. If you are staying at one of these places try your best to avoid eating large breakfasts or dinners at the resort. All in all I don't think theres much difference from these places and the others. The Value Resorts to me personally made for a better time because I wasn't interested in the decor as I would be at some of the other resorts.

POP Century is the way to go. I absolutely loved it there.
I would not pay the extra to stay in a deluxe resort. To me it is so not worth it, since we are never in our room.
I would however stay in Port Orleans or Riverside in a heartbeat if we had the extra cash. But I actually enjoyed POP more then Caribbean Beach.
The only other value I have been at was Music. All of the values are similar to each other but I enjoyed POP's theming more then Music.
I think you will be happy with staying anywhere on property. I would take the deal and go with a value.
Did you check out some of my photos of POP in my trip report thread? I can post them here if you would like. We were in the 80's section. It was somewhat far from the lobby and busses but I ended up liking that better. Our pool never had anyone in it and the whole section was quiet. The closer you get to the main pool and lobby the busier it becomes.
