We enjoyed both. I can't really say one is better than the other because they both have their pluses and minuses. The AKL lounge was very nice, they had good food offerings, the staff was very nice and helpful, the only negative thing I can say is that it's pretty far away from everything except Animal Kingdom of course. So at night we would usually have to hop on a bus and go to Downtown Disney or the Boardwalk area, or a park that was open late because the resort didn't really offer nightlife of any kind. At the WL you really don't have any nightlife either but I felt like I was closer to things, like the boat to MK and the monorail resorts. The WL has a very nice lounge and we really enjoyed the food and the staff. I'd say it's a toss up between the two. Maybe just think about which resort appeals to you more, if you love seeing animals you'd probably prefer AKL. But if being close to MK is important you'd probably be happier at WL.
Hope that helps!
