GF or AKL? OR AKL CL?

[Briarmom]

Sorry to bother everyone yet again, but it appears that the GF has opened up (or so it says online) and I could get it for all 4 nights Nov 23-27 (Thanksgiving). This would be AFTER our 7-8 days in the parks, and we are just going to hang out at the resort. Maybe do Early morning EMH one day, but that's it.
So, should I do the GF? Or AKL? Kids are 6 and 2 so I want 'stuff' to do at the resort.

Also, is concierge worth it for us? It isn't avail at GF, but it is at AKL. It sounds very tempting to eat and drink and not have to leave the area.

Any input is appreciated. I promise that one day I will make up my mind and do this thing, but right now I am stressed about this. I don't know why. I know that no matter what, it will be fun!

We just did GF and AKL concierge- GF great for getting to MK,but we truly LOVED AKL concierge and there were many activities for the kids. I would highly recommend the staff, food offerings, and the AKL resort. You will not be disappointed this is one great place to "hang out" after you do the parks.

We have stayed concierge at both GF and AKL, and also regular rooms (pool, standard and savannah view) at AKL.

AKL blows GF away. There is no comparison. The castmembers, restaurants, ambience..all better at AKL. The pool area is so much nicer as well. AKL has a great playground for kids.

GF concierge staff were rude and not helpful at all. We will never, ever stay at GF again, and we don't recommend it to anyone.

We have stayed at AKL many times, and we recommend it concierge or not to all our friends. All who have went absolutely love it..it becomes their favorite resort on disney property.

So, as you can see, our vote goes to AKL.
