AN EDIT TO MY EDIT BELOW, LOL: I finally was able to make the change. It wouldn't work on my computer, nor through the app on my phone. However, I was able to go directly to the website on my phone and finally got it to go through so we're now booked at Pop Century (I also upgraded our tickets to include the water park in case my granddaughter would like to go-she's a little fish, LOL).
EDIT-I thought I'd go with some of the suggestions and change to Pop Century, but I'm having trouble. I get to the second to last step and although my trip is paid off, it shows the amount as being less (not including the very last payment-I made two payments from different sources on the same day). Checked my bank account, and it still showed the payment as pending, so I waited. Today it's finally showing cleared and on the "My Plans" page it shows "paid in full," so hoped it would work today. Nope. I wasn't worried about the money showing differently because I could prove what I paid, so when I continued and hit the final submit, the next page said there was a "cart error" and had a code at the end. I hate calling because we're overseas and the delay in the conversation is annoying (or, sometimes if I explain I'm overseas they'll try to have me call elsewhere). I gave in and called, but of course with the time difference, they're not open. Ugh! Hopefully, I can get this done. I also decided to go ahead and rent a car, even though we probably won't use it often. It's only $100 more than paying for the shuttle, but we arrive just before midnight so it'll be nice to have our own transportation (plus on our departure day, after checkout we can place our bags in it and spend more time at the parks).

So, I'm surprising my granddaughter with a trip to Disneyworld this summer (I normally wouldn't choose summer but we're stationed overseas and this is when we'll be back in the US). Of course, it's a big expense, so I told my husband I would figure out how to pay for it by June (I don't work outside the home, LOL). Well, I started selling food on base and, lo and behold, I was able to pay off our trip today. I chose All-Star Movies as a budget-saving hotel, but since selling my food is going so well and I still have 3 months until we head to the states (4 months until Disney), I thought I might change the reservation but not sure what to change it to.
I think I'm just looking for something easier to get to the parks from, especially Magic Kingdom (we're going to hit them all, but I have a feeling we'll spend the majority of time in the Magic Kingdom). Which would you choose?
