We had a preferred view studio for our trip this past October. Originally, we had a ressie at OKW and were on the waitlist for BWV. The waitlist came through a week before our check-in date. The only requestwe made was non-smoking. We did not request any particular view. Imagine our surprise when we got to our room and had a beautiful Boardwalk view. I think our room # was 3031, or something like that. So, although it might not be probable that you will get a Boardwalk view, it's not impossible!
Have a great trip!
