My trip was from 8/7/13 - 8/14/13. I stayed on the 3rd floor of Building 6 (Surf's Up). This is a good resort, for the most part. It is clean and has a nice pool. Though, the dining area was under construction for the Sports resort, they had a shuttle to take you to the Music or Movies resort to use their dining area. Some of the park buses only picked up people from the Sports resort, but others picked up all the All-Star resort locations. It seemed like it wan't consistent though. Going to the park the bus would only pick up the Sports resort people, but leaving the park had people from all the All-star resorts. Tended to be a very crowded bus ride back to the resort.
I went over to the Movies resort for dinner one night and I was jealous at the theming at that resort compared to the Sports. The Sports pool located near the main building lacked much theming or decoration.
I would recommend this resort for people wanting to save money, but stay on Disney property.
Pros:
Clean, friendly staffCons:
small rooms, crowded buses, walking distnace to/from bust stopsReviewed by Missymouse18 Review Date: 06/23/2013

It has been three years since I stayed here. It is a nice hotel, but because I am not a sports enthusiast, (unlike my hubby) it is my least fave of the three All-Stars. still overall, a great resort.
Pros:
clean, nice pool area, good food courtCons:

We got back from our trip on 6/6/13 and stayed at the All Star Sports. The room was updated since my last stay many years ago and was nice a clean. The mouse-keeping did a good job all week keeping the room fresh. The rooms are smaller then other resorts on property so judge how much you will stay in the room. My only complaint this trip is the cooler style refrigeration units take about two full days to cool drinks. I drove so I had a large cooler but for those who don't have the luxury of driving you may want a normal refrigerator. Overall the landscaping was done well and it is the first stop on the bus route which was HUGE! Bus service was good all days that we used it.
Pros:
Updated roomsCons:

Just back from our visit to the World Jan. 25-30 2013. We were originally booked for All Star Music, but there was a mix up with our two rooms so we were offered rooms at the Sport Resort, after reading poor reviews on the Sport Resort I didn't know what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of our rooms and how nice the resort was everything was so clean. I noticed one of the complaints was the size of the rooms at the All Star Resorts, so I reserved two rooms one for my teenage daughters and another for my son and me. The price of the rooms is affordable enough that instead of complaining about how small the rooms are why not get two rooms. People complained in the reviews about the noise in the rooms facing the pools well our rooms were facing the pool and we hardly heard any noise from the pool. I enjoyed the convience of being able to watch my tween son from the balcony walk to the food court for drinks and breakfast. We ate most of our meals at the resort the food was cooked to order and always hot and fresh, I was surprised at the selection of food at the food court, I assumed because we were staying at the Sport Resort they would only offer hamburgers and chicken nuggets, but was surprised by their menu which varied from london broil steak to turkey to salads made to order. My only complaint was how far we got dropped off from the parks via disney buses. Who wants to walk a mile or two before entering or leaving the parks. Overall I was very pleased with my experience and look forward to staying at All Star Sport again.
