We (me, dh, dd25, ds8 and dd5) stayed at POR from 11/28-12/6. My cousin's family was in a connecting room with her, her dh, ds9, ds5, dd4 and dd2. Neither room was exceptionally crowded. We did not find the trundle to be comfortable - of course I was the one who was supposed to sleep on it. I couldn't - my hips started hurting minutes after laying down. So I climb in with dd25 and put ds8 on the trundle. My cousin's ds9 slept on their trundle and said it was comfortable. The next night we went to Target (we went for a camera because I blew ours up when I plugged the DVD charger into it) and got a twin sized airbed. Dd25 slept on it for the remaining 7 nights and said it was actually more comfortable than the beds. If you want to stay at POR and are worried about the sleeping arrangements, think about taking an air mattress for your ds13 - it fits nicely in the spot where the trundle pulls out and Mousekeeping brought us extra sheets, blankets and pillows for it.
I had wanted to stay here for years - had actually booked it twice before but ended up changing for one reason or another. This was the only moderately priced resort that would fit my cousin's family of 6 so I finally got to stay here. I loved the resort from the beginning. I was really excited when I got our room assignment - building 14, corner room, ground floor (cousin's dd2 wears braces on her legs and used a wheelchair). Also, we (me, dh and ds8) arrived at 9:00 am and our room was ready. The rest of the group arrived around noon - my cousin's room was not ready until 4:00 pm. We were very close to the main buildling and just a short walk to the main pool or quiet pool. We got the refillable mugs because we were so close, but honestly, the only one that got the $$ worth was mine. My dd25 and I took a stroll around the resort one day while dh was at the pool with the kids (we were gone when they got back and they didn't have a key - and it was like 60 degrees out).
The only downside I found at the resort was the bus service. There's just too many people for the number of busses they send. Of course, with having a large group with a wheelchair, we sometimes had to wait for the next bus - which took another 15-20 minutes to arrive. The night of Christmas party, dd25 and I waited 45 minutes for bus to the MK - busses for the other parks were consistently coming through and sometimes even leaving the South Depot practically empty.
Would I stay here again? Absolutely but I would like to have a car to transport us to the parks (we did have our car which seats 6 - but there were 11 of us including 6 children - 4 of them required car seats or boosters so we would have had to make several trips between the resort/parks).
