After numerous delays, the first phase of Disney's latest inexpensive resort debuted in December 2003. Gigantic memorabilia representing the hottest fads of decades past -- from Duncan Yo-Yos and the Rubik's Cube to flower power and 8-tracks -- mark the exteriors of the Pop Century's buildings. Another clone of the All-Star school (though a slight step up because the accommodations are newer and the furniture a tad nicer), you won't get a lot of frills, but the price is right for families on a budget. A family of four, could, with a bit of effort, squeeze into the small, basic rooms. The resort is divided into decades, starting with the Legendary Years of the 1900s to 1940s (alas, there is no projected date for completion of this phase), and the Classic Years of the 1950s to 1990s (the only section currently operating). The resort is closest to the Wide World of Sports Complex but a bit of a ride (yes, you should definitely rent a car) from everything else.
