I just returned from WDW and took a peek at the models at the BW. My impression was that they are much richer in colors and feel than any of the photos I had seen. Yes, perhaps darker in color than OKW but very cozy feeling and even a little luxurious. I loved them !! I saw the outside of the actual buildings at SSR and with not a lot of vegetation around the windows I would think they would get lots of light inside the units.
