This! I see so many disparaging comments, but the amenities are great, food is good, and the theming is very cute and well done and a great price point 🤷‍♀️☺️

I stayed at all-star music in 2018 and it was only $85 a night. I can't get over how fast Disney is raising prices.

[@gr8vbplaya18]

I'm old enough to remember when all stars were like 70 bucks a night.... wild times. But I love the theming. It seems like Disney is de-theming a lot of the more expensive hotels so I'm glad we still have these gems along with Pop Century.

I would not spend more than $10 for this roach motel. For $178 dollars/night this week you could stay at the Marriott World Center. This place has water slides and 4,000 gallon pool on property! And for that price you wanna stay at some ratched af Disney roach motel so you can take a skyline that you’ll have to wait hours to take. Why??

[@amandawilliamson3359]

I can see the character photo pass working for the little kids who are scared of being near the actual characters. This way they are still able to get the cute character pictures without freaking out.

Stayed there in April for the second time (first was in 2005) and LOVED it! The rooms are nice and clean, the theming is cute and the lobby is close and has great offerings! Hope you’ll have a fabulous time! ❤

[@christophergrote1749]

Nice change of pace video, the hotel seems a lot nicer than I was expecting. Any way you can do a "Best-Of" for Orlando restaurants not on Theme park grounds? Definitely helpful for people coming into town that don't plan on eating at the park every day.

[@maxhardman606]

We stayed at All-Star music, last summer. We stayed in the ones with two beds. They are queen beds. The ones closes to the door is a murphy bed, that becomes a table when the bed is up. Worked out great in the morning for muffins, Danishes and cereals. We had two of our grandchildren staying with us.

[@gabygomez7229]

I had no idea that All Star switched to an individual bus system! That used to be my biggest pet peeve about staying there years ago.

WOW!! That's the first table with chairs I've seen in an All-Star Resort and I have actually stayed in Movies before and didn't have one. The only table in my room was the bed that turns into a table. From now on I will get a King room with a separate table.

[@geno5169]

My wife and I booked our family suite at all star music ! We haven’t stayed on Disney property over 18 years! We were renting a house ! It was cheaper. We decided. To get family suites!

[@DJLaing]

The Dallas Cowboys have been doing the video meet and greet at the stadium for a long time now. It's with players - and was very popular. I think its a neat addition to the hotel that is clearly not meant to replace an actual meet and greet. Its a supplemental way to do something fun with your kids while you wait for your hotel room to be ready. Anything that improves the customer experience is good and we should applaud WDW for thinking outside the box. The values can sometimes feel "less than" - so something cute for the kids that's a bit extra at that hotel is a plus.

[@sodahunter8413]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who grew up with a family who ate dinner at lunch and supper at dinner.

[@suegarrett2934]

Just had a little solo stay pre a work trip , stayed in a room just by Buzz , ❤I was so impressed ! Cast members were all wonderful, buses were good and food court offers good range of great value tasty food. Would have been SO excited to see mam fam there! ( but did meet Quincey on the bus !) really loved the supersized characters here as I had only stayed at Deluxe resorts before . Would stay again over somewhere like Saratoga springs any day .

[@manda.pandamonium]

I know other resorts are amenity heavy and definitely have their pros but nothing beats All Star Movies for me. When I'm in the Disney bubble, I want reminders everywhere 😂

[@erikapoulin2330]

I didn’t know that info about the busses not making multiple stops anymore at the other All Star resorts. Such a game changer! Thanks for another great video. ❤

[@amandamerrill326]

I was supposed to stay here but a cast member called me before my trip and said “Tinker Bell has extra magic for me” and moved us to Port Orleans Riverside! It was magical. These rooms at All-Star Movies look just like the refurbished rooms at Pop Century (stayed there a few years ago!) and I loved that room!! The bathroom lighting is great too :)

The definition of dinner is: the main meal of the day, taken either around midday or in the evening. So as long as it’s the meal where you eat the most food, you can call lunch or supper, dinner.

We generally stay at All Star Sports, mainly for the first on for the buses lol. The last couple of times we’ve been there, before the pandemic, one or two nights a week they would have chicken pot pie with phyllo pastry, we really like it! Hopefully they will still have it when we get there in November!

[@taymaul]

Love All Stars! Can’t wait to give this a watch, and hear y’all’s thoughts! I always appreciate your Resort Stays!

[@cijmo]

I loved my stay at All Star Music. My travel agent knows I'm a Broadway fan so he requested the Broadway building for me. The only thing about All Stars, a bullet that I dodged by one day (I was checking in as they were checking out) is, because of the price, a lot of school tours, band tours and in my case the National Cheerleader Convention stay there. So when you book your room, check if there are any large groups there. If there are - stay at another one because the cast were almost shell shocked when I got there so I don't think it's a relaxing time for other guests.

We stayed at All Star Movies in December and we were so surprised with how nice they are. If you are a rope drop to fireworks family, there really isn't much reason to pay for a nicer hotel.

[@matthewfischer9983]

About 20 years ago, my Mom figured out that you could come in the last night of "value" rates and that rate would extend for the whole stay which would be under $100. It allowed us to get multiple rooms, and we were there for Christmas so huge difference in frate. Mainly we would be at All-Star Sports, but stayed at All-Star Movies for one of those.

[@InfectiousGroovePodcast]

We keep thinking about doing a staycation down to Orlando from northeast Florida. Glad to see this video because this is one of the properties that I thought would work best for us.

The late Dave Smith, founder of the Walt Disney Archives, once shared this mnemonic: "the brightest hue of the three is red (Huey), the color of water, dew, is blue (Dewey), and that leaves Louie, and leaves are green."

Our last visit to Disney World we stayed at All Star Movies Dalmatian rooms. Really pleasantly surprised by how comfortable the beds were! Loved the over the top theming especially the puppy posed in front of the TV so cute. I noticed the sign at the entrance to Toy Story section that Molly was allowed in and thought of you. As others have said, glad you stayed at a value resort too. That wrench convo had me rolling!

I love Molly’s idea! I literally just watched Heavyweights last night! We used the meme “lunch has been canceled due to lack of hustle! Deal with it” meme at work a few days ago and I just wanted to watch it again! That would make a hilarious theme for All Star Movies! Plus, the blob!!

I stayed here for a Run Disney event and it was perfect. (Although I also stayed in sight of the creepy jack-in-the-box!) Glad to see this value resort get some love! It's a fun place to stay and the rooms are really comfy. As Molly notes, bus service to the parks is really quick. I rarely waited long for a bus either at the resort or at whichever park I was visiting. Highly recommended.

We stayed at ASM during our Jan 2023 Trip! Pro tip: Mighty Ducks rooms are the Standard rate...but they are SUPER close to the bus stop for All Star Music. The short walk was especially nice coming home at night with tired feet.

[@TheGoofy1932]

I'm so old. 😂 I remember when you could get these little rooms for like $69 a night with an AP or Florida Resident special. I like that it's still Disney theme overload there though, especially when so much de-theming 😡 is going on there now. It's hard to justify the nearly $200 price tag though for what is essentially a Disney themed Days Inn. 🤷‍♀️ At least Pop Century has the skyliner which we do like. The Disney 🚍 system is not particularly magical. 😉🤣

[@chinalee-mn4vy]

I'm remembering bringing my 2 daughters to stay at the value resorts. They both loved the themes of All Star Movie resort and Pop Century. I enjoyed seeing how much fun they both had just looking at the giant Mickey and everything else. My girls are grown up and my grandchildren are going. Such amazing memories. 💜💜 watching Molly dance thru the shop was wonderful. Love being in the Mamfam community 🎉💜

[@Savarona23]

Another comment because I got to the end where y’all say if you’re team cap or team iron man, my husband and I had a heated debate about this on our way to my parents house one year. My dad was actually worried we were arguing about something and when he found out we were on opposite sides of the MCU Civil War, he roasted us all night for so seriously arguing about it 🤣🤣

[@erlandgraf]

Okay. If I may make an argument for Team Mop, because Team Broom tends to dominate and I think Team Mop has a solid case. #1: If it were a broom, why would it carry water? #2: Similarly, its appearance in early animation shouldn't override its obvious function, which is indicated by the buckets of water. In an approaching 100 year old animated film, it was likely easier to draw a broom-like creature with easy to separate sections for the legs than the thicker, more detailed strands of a mop. #3: We are assuming broom based on our current understanding of what a mop looks like, not what it looked like decades ago. Mops of that era didn't look terribly dissimilar to brooms. As I said in #2, the biggest difference was the width and motion of its bristles, which would have been difficult to animate at the time. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk. 😂

Honestly, these resorts look great for the kiddos. I booked The Contemporary and can't help but feel like my kiddos would enjoyed the theming more at these resorts and the cool themed pools at AOA. We've stayed 2x at AOA and my kiddos love it but I want to try something new. I could book 2 rooms here at All Star Movies at half of the cost for 1 room at The Contemporary. But then no monorail, extra magic hours, no table-service restaurants at the resort, etc :/

[@nicoleolmsted2327]

Can you please do a Winner Picks Dinner at the Boardwalk? I can't just sit by the pool all day and it seems like it's a great alternative/addition to a resort day.

Did you have to choose to have a king bed or was it just randomly given to you since you have 2 people? We're going in September but I don't remember having that option.

Molly looks so cute! 😍 I'm guessing they were playing Muppets Christmas Carol for Christmas in July...? 🤔 That Character Clicks thing makes sense for people who don't want to or can't wait in line to meet the characters. Or kids that might be afraid of meeting the characters but still want a photo with them.

I am happy that you did this hotel. I took my daughter in january 2022 and son May 2023 and it was very smooth. Stayed in the Toy Story section both time and loved it. My whole family is going in January 2024 and am looking forward to it. It is very easy to navigate. it would be nice though if they updated the sections to more to up date movies. Keep Toy Story revamp the rest

[@Jumpondees]

We were there in December 2021 and got a room in around the corner from Buzz. It was our first time staying on property and we were pretty impressed. Compared to other hotels off property, the room was pretty small, but those mattresses were the most comfortable I have ever slept on. Normally hotel beds are so beat up and uncomfortable, but the ones at ASM were chef's kiss. After a long day of walking around the parks, I'm totally sore. I woke up each morning feeling no pain from the night before. I will say my best memory from that trip was bringing back a Crave Case from the White Castle sitting outside the bar at one of the high top tables and eating sliders while drinking sangria's from the bar.

[@adamosborne8030]

Fun fact: There was an animated series about the Mighty Ducks. It features anamorphic duck people, and I believe the hockey masks at the hotel are referencing that because they are shaped like they would fit a duck-person.

[@meghangriesemer1129]

We randomly met Daisy, Chip and Dale in the Love Bug section. We spent a morning at the Mighty Duck Hockey rink pool. It was awesome! The pool was pretty empty and I got a few minutes to float blissfully alone! A mom's dream. And the Murphy bed is amazingly soft. I enjoyed my time at All Star Movies and so did the kids.

[@RedheadedStoryKeeper]

We stayed here 7/31-8/7/22 and really enjoyed it. It was my first time staying at a Disney resort and our whole family (12 of us) had no complaints. We are also the type of family that stay in the parks as long as possible so hotel amenities are not on the list of priorities. The parks were very crowded while visiting but didn't have any trouble with the bus transportation which we took everywhere including Disney Springs. We would definitely stay at Movies again!
