After jonesing to stay at some of the deluxes for a long time, my partner and I have finally realized that we are owned by moderates for life. (CSR taught us that last year.) They just give us exactly what we like in a Disney vacation. But I've always had kind of a block about French Quarter, because it seems so close to a Value in terms of its level of amenities. So for those of you who love French Quarter, how does it differ in your mind/heart from, say, Pop, considering that it has a lower level of amenities relative to the other moderates? I'm asking because I'm trying to find the love for it for potential future stays. Many thanks!
At POFQ, I love the smallness (especially in comparison to all the other moderates), the vibe, the theming, the jazz music, the lobby smell, Scat Cat's club, Sassagoula Floatworks, the hot tub away from the kids in the pool, the boat to DS, and the Cajun campfire in the courtyard away from the pool.
I do love both Pop and POFQ, but I miss the hot tub at Pop. But in some ways I find Pop superior to all moderates, especially in terms of bus transportation and counter service options.
I think you have to ask yourself what amenities you love at CSR. Do you use their health club, spa or salon? Do you eat at their TS restaurants daily? Do you use their quiet pools? If you do, then maybe POFQ is not for you.
