Having stayed at both the AS Resort and HIFS I don't think you can compare the two. HIFS with its living room w/ tv, table and chairs, frig, and sink, master bedroom with door and separate kids area (w/ tv/vcr and nintendo), along with the kids eat free policy, zero depth pool, shuffle board, mini golf ant HOT TUBS, in no way compare to the 2 double beds in an All Star room, plain old swimming pool, mega bucks for Disney food and no other entertainment.
The HIFS is also closer to many of the Disney parks (with the exception of AK) then the All Star resorts are as well.
Please be fair when comparing the off site HIFS with a Disney resort.
