My family stayed at Art of Animation and it was great. The best is having 2 bathrooms when getting ready in the mornings. I really enjoy your videos, makes me feel like I’m there.

French Quarter is our favorite resort. We love the atmosphere and the size. It always feels quiet, quaint, and at the end of a long day, you don't have to walk for an hour once back to the resort to get back to your room.

The "worst" part of Port Orleans FQ is also a blessing: it's small, yes. But if you get a room there, short lines for busses to-and-from. Also boats to-and-from Disney Springs! Also...short walk from the bus to your room after a long day of park-going. My wife and I adored our stay there!

My family camped at Ft. wilderness when I was young and it was the first time I ever rode a horse. The horses are very tame and the trails are shaded. There’s a lot of free entertainment at the campground as well, including the 70s-style light show on the lake. You can see the magic kingdom fireworks from the beach area. Taking the Ferry to magic kingdom early in the morning is glorious.

Great video as usual, Molly. Fun extra bonus for our family - Our mini Australian labradoodle loves your big puppies! But I wish you had added another five minutes or so, to include more "Best" and "Worst" items. A few random examples: Best - The "Decades" theming at Pop Century; water transportation to Disney Springs at Port Orleans Riverside and French Quarter; extra pull-down beds at Port Orleans Riverside. Worst: Size of Port Orleans Riverside (long walk to Food Court and gift shop, multiple bus stops).

Have stayed at Port Orleans 3x and the best thing about the resort besides the beautiful landscape and walking paths is the boat you can take directly to downtown Disney. We utilized the boat ride down the river almost every nt and would have dinner in downtown Disney and then walk around to the various shops. It's definitely a great perk.

My adult son and I stayed at Riverside and loved it.. we did have the bus be full a couple of times but it was a beautiful resort. We did eat at the food court one time and the food was delicious and the bakery outstanding.. still craving those little orange bundt cakes to this day.. We mostly ate at other resorts and at the parks.. We stayed at Music with my daughters family and absolutely loved it.. the kid atmosphere was awesome and both me and my son love that kid stuff as well.. would stay at either of these again in a heartbeat.. we are hoping to get a room at French Quarter in September for just two nights when we are in town to visit friends for a new resort experience .. I'll take anything on property though.. missing it... thanks for the reviews :D

My family and I actually loved their quick service restaurant- we thought the food was delicious! Our arrival day we ate lunch and I had a yummy hot roast beef sandwich and for dinner they actually had steak and other carving meats. Whenever we go to Disney again we will most likely staying there!

We stayed at Port Orleans Riverside in November. We will never stay there again. We didn’t think the accommodations were worth the higher price point from the value resorts. We also ran into a number of not so friendly cast members at Riverside. The bus loop around the resort took a long time, so if you stay there, budget in more time. We were lucky enough to have a room near the lobby and food court we did make it a request and they honored it.

We are booked at CBR and the internal buses are what have me nervous! We stayed at FQ last time and always found a seat on the bus and never waited

@MaggieLuds 4 жыл бұрын

Just stayed at CBR right before the parks shut down. We were in Trinidad and we mainly took the skyliner everywhere, super quick walk to the main hub. When we did have to take the bus, we walked to the main building in the morning for a quick bite and then got on the bus. Never any issues with seating. And still full of energy because we just woke up. But I would definitely add at least 15-20 mins to commute times for all of the stops. At night when we were exhausted from the parks we just stayed on the bus until it reached Trinidad and it was no big deal to walk to our room from the bus stop, which was a water view. Basically had a direct view of the whole skyliner station. I would prefer to stay in Trinidad when I go back again due to the VERY close proximity to the skyliner.

I haven't been to Disneyworld in 19 years and we are starting to plan for 2022. Still trying to figure out if we want good neighbor or a Disney resort. Once we figure that out, I think the rest will just fall into place easily... ya know, depending in Covid. But I'm hopeful in that area.

Riverside is my favorite resort! It is beautiful! I have stayed there 5 times! Riverside Mill IS boring food, but it serves its purpose! It feeds hundreds of people breakfast every morning, quick and easy! When kids gotta eats, they gotta eat! And they want food they are familiar with, which is what the Mill is all about. That being said, I am a foodie, so I agree with molly, there ARE much better places to eat!🤣

I have only stayed outside the value resorts once. TO me, if the resort has a bed, a pool, coffee, and a place to get yogurt or oats in the morning on the way to the park, I am good. The others can be visited for food and entertainment anyway, so to me, its not worth the price tag to lay my head there at night.

All Star Movies a big minus is its layout. All the value resorts are clustered, and the farthest building is a bit of a walk. But Movies is linear and the farthest building is so far away.
