Icon5 Size of Rooms

We are currently booked to stay at the POFQ in March. Last march we stayed at the Pop Century and were pretty satisfied with it. However, this time we might be going with one other person and staying for a few more nights.

Does anyone know how much larger, if any, the rooms at the POFQ are when compared to the Pop Century? I am sure the POFQ is a lot nicer, but we aren't going to Disney to spend time in the room. I just don't want to get cramped when we are in there.

Thanks for the help.

Re: Size of Rooms

THe rooms arre much bigger than PC. Last year we stayed at PO/FQ and for the moderate resorts they have one of the smaller rooms available. CBR is probably one of the bigger of the moderates.

POFQ: 315 sqft.

Re: Size of Rooms

The rooms at Caribbean Beach are the largest of any moderates and are also much larger than any of the Value resorts. CBR was the first "moderate" built and that's why the rooms are larger. They downsized the roooms by the time they built the next moderate. We had a corner room, ground floor at CBR a couple years ago and it was very roomy.

CBR used to be the Value Resort, the only one they had, IIRC. When they began the All Stars, it became a moderate. We stayed there back then, and loved it, but all I remember was WALKING. That and the pool, which was great!

CBR was never a "Value" resort. It was the first non-deluxe resort built, but the term "Value Resort" didn't come along until the All-Stars were built. Contemporary & Polynesian were the first hotels built onsite.

Re: Size of Rooms

POFQ's rooms are much roomier then the value resort rooms. After we stayed at a moderate with our son we said we never wanted to go back to the value mainly because of the room size. Even if you arent in the room for long periods of time, it does make the time you are there more comfortable. Just my opinion.

No, that term wasn't in use yet, but it was the least expensive onsite property then. It was the one all us poor folk headed for.
