It would appear a bit of a refurb has started in the Finding Nemo Suites at least. There are a few photos on tripadvisor from a February 2019 review that show new flooring, paint, raised bed and curtains in the Nemo suite. I don't know if I'm allowed to copy the photos here. Also, Tim Tracker recently posted a video that shows the updated Nemo room. They must not be too far along, because there isn't much info our there about the refurb.
What is the timeline for the AllStars to be finished, does anyone know? My son is looking at 2021 for AoA.I would guess that they would be sure to finish all All Stars resorts before moving on to fully refurbing AOA.

We stayed at POP and hated it, but our son may stay there with his family and we'd stay somewhere else. Everyone has different tastes!Personally I'd recommend POP over AOA any day.

The general theming was yuck for us. We had the "old" rooms but have since stayed at a refurbed room and we didn't care for that, so that would not have helped it's case for us. Really did not care for the food court/gift shop layout at ALL. I know AoA is probably the same, but the rooms look more fun and we will know going in to not bother with the food court/gift shop.Curious as to what you did not care for about POP?
If it was the rooms... have you stayed since the refurb?

Maybe they won't do them over to the new style. I hated the "new" rooms.No clear timeline right now. Movies is half done, they were supposed to finish in Feb 2019 but work halted last fall and hasn't started up again. Music was supposed to be next, then Sports. They've been really quiet about what, if anything, is happening going forward.

I find this hysterical.The rooms smell
Not sure why.I find this hysterical.
Ha! What do you think the rooms smell like? I was under the impression that the vacant mermaid buildings were just concrete shells when the project was abandoned.Not sure why.
The resort sat vacant for a long time before they did anything with it.
It really needed to be demolished and redone but it wasn't.
Most likely the pics a video are from test rooms. WDW resorts will usually mock up a couple test rooms about a year or so before every refurb to get feedback from the guests that stay in them.
