We stayed at AKL last May and LOVED it!! The bus service was incredible - the only slow one was DTD. Other than it, we never waited longer than 10 min to get anywhere (and there were no stops). That being said, we are staying at WL this Jan during the marathon weekend for the access to MK. My girls are 5 and 4, and we didn't want to be stuck at the resort w/o guarantee that we could swim in the mornings until traffic cleared. I'm sad b/c I much prefer the AKL theming, but in the end, practicality won out.
