| Good, but a little run down.... We stayed at AllStar Sports in May of 07. Part of my begging to DH to let us go to WDW was that we'd stay at the sports themed resort! The resort was nice, but a bit run down. I know it is the oldest of the AllStars and it shows. Some of the decor and icons were faded. The rope lights outlining the icons at night- not all of them worked and some were falling off. Little things like that. Also, for some odd reason, our room had bedspreads with musical instruments and musicians on them...... I know they had just finished some refurbs on ASMusic when we were there, so apparently they were re-using the older spreads at the sports resort. Not a huge deal, but when you go to a sports themed resort, you expect to be immersed in sports. I'd stay at aother AlllStars before staying here again, unless they do some major refurbing. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| I cheated on this. I asked my hubby for the number portion of the review. When I go to Disney, I go for the parks so I really didn't take much (if any) notice of the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable and I slept well at night. The pool was huge and enjoyable and when I went to the laundry room, there were machines available. The hotel had everything I needed and wanted. Planning for our trip this year, we didn't want to stay anywhere else. Lenny on the otherhand said the outside of the hotel needed some "sprucing up" when we went in 2006. I didn't notice. Having an Autistic daughter and Lenny using a scooter, everywhere we went was fully accesible to both of them, so that's why it got a 10 from him. Yes, everything was laid out, but we were in a preferred building, which did make it easy. We did like the theming even though we aren't into sports. It had all the amenities we wanted, we didn't miss anything it might not have had. And yes, the fridges normally cost, but that's where our magic came in. For whatever reason, the CM gave it to us for the week for free. Not only are we going to stay there again, we would recommend it to anyone who goes to the world like we do. We go for the parks and the hotel is just someplace to shower and sleep, not a place we spend a lot of time. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Football Frenzy We stayed here last December. We went down as a Christmas time surprise. I was looking for tons of fun on a small budget. We found it here! We stayed in the Homerun Hotel, which had just finished its remodel. Great job Disney! The food in the food court was delicious and my son loved both the surf's up pool and the baseball pool. The bus transportation was pretty good. The longest wait we had was the day we were trying to get to Blizzard Beach for mini-golf. (It was low 50's this day so the buses were not really focused on the waterpark  ) My son's favorite place at the resort was the football field. We ended up buying 2 mini footballs and had to keep 1 with us so every time we went through the football field we could toss the pigskin around. We would definately stay here again. Next time I think we will try for the Touchdown Hotel. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| We just returned from our stay here(March 08).  It was a pleasant surprise. Our room was newly refurbished, beautiful, and very clean. We were upgraded to a preferred room, and our location was convenient and a short walk to everything.The food court was tasty, the gift shop had a great selection. The staff everywhere was top-notch, friendly, and really went out of their way to make our stay magical. Bus service was excellent, we never encountered much of a wait. We rarely stopped at the other All Star Resorts as I was expecting. There was some pool noise (our room overlooked the pool), but not enough to keep us awake. We really were overwhelmed by the groups staying at the resort sometimes. Most of the kids were great, but there were so many of them! All and all, a great value, and a great place to stay. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
