A descent variety of food with lots of seating. Quality is very inconsistent though. Some days the food was great other days not so much (cold/soggy) If you are staying at this hotel, its worth taking advantage of, but if not, don't bother.

We stayed at AOA for 2 weeks, so had a few opportunities to have breakfast at the food court. It seemed to really be hit or miss. Some days the food was great other days not so much (cold/soggy) Overall, it does the job but I wouldn't go out of my way to go here if I were staying at a different hotel.
Pros:
decent varietyCons:

how can you go wrong with dole whip?! The line was quite long, but the variety of dole whip was delicious. I love that they have flights so you can try a variety of flavors.

my mobile order was not cooperating so I had to go to the counter to order. I had wanted to get a crepe but apparently they don't make those in the morning. Instead I ordered the creme brule (which I had seen in mobile order as a vanilla creme brule with fresh fruit) I was not told they had multiple flavors (the guy helping me seemed annoyed anyone was in the restaurant at all and was not very friendly) and the board on the wall simple said creme brule with no flavors listed. Turned out the one I got was dark chocolate coffee flavoured (great if you like those things I guess, but I do not!) It was not enjoyable at all! The hibiscus frozen lemonade on the other hand was delicious!
Pros:
good drinkCons:

we didn't actually go to the restaurant, we went to the cookie bar. The line was very long, but with good reason! I got the lemon cookie and a brown butter rice crispy treat. They were both HUGE and AMAZING! My friend also got two different cookies and agreed that they were absolutely delicious!!
Pros:
huge, delicious cookies!Cons:
long lineReview of Art of Animation Resort (Value Resort)

As this was likely a once in a lifetime trip for me, we chose to splurge on a Finding Nemo suite (their were only 2 of us! LOL) Since we were their for 2 full weeks and we are both used to living alone, it was actually very nice to each have our own space and the two bathrooms made getting ready a breeze in the mornings. The themeing was great, we loved all the huge statues of characters. Our room was in a great location, about mid way between the lobby and skyliner with a great view of the pool area. All the cast we encountered were super friendly and helpful. On the down side, it didn't seem like they cleaned the floors in our room at all (it felt gritty in bare feet and you could even see the dust building up in some of the corners). Twice we had to call down to housekeeping as they didn't leave us any fresh face clothes. It can also be noisy! Aside from the usual daily noise of the pool activities, you can easily hear people in the halls and sometimes even in the rooms next to you and they also do work (looked like they were cleaning the paths?) early in the morning. Overall it was a nice hotel but not sure I would spend that much if I were to go again.
Pros:
great themeing, skylinerCons:
not to sure about the cleanliness of rooms, beds aren't very comfortable, noisyReview of Disney After Hours – EPCOT

We did 2 after hours events on our most recent trip to WDW, Magic Kingdom and EPCOT. Both were great, but I think I preferred the EPCOT one. It was quite crowded when we first went in which made it difficult to see/do anything in the pavilions, but we did manage to get some exploring in before finding a spot for the evening fire works show. With the park closing at 9pm (same time as the fireworks show starts) it was much more manageable once the show was done since no one but event guests could get in lines. We were able to do EVERY SINGLE ride (some more than once!) and some shows/experiences as well. Both nights we were able to more than make up the price difference with the included snacks and drinks! Highly recommended (maybe if you don't have kids as it is very late) and would definitely do these again if I return to WDW!
