We are back from a split stay, OKW and WL.
We liked the OKW studio, but it had some mousekeeping and maintenance issues. There were big cobwebs up the corner of the room when we checked in, the carpet was badly frayed at the seam down the center of the room the light fixture in the kitchenette area didn't work and our alarm clock was broken. They fixed the light for us. They just dropped off a different alarm clock on the bed while we were out..didn't take the dead one so I had a stack of alarm clocks on the nightstand. We really liked parking just outside the room and would stay at OKW again, just in a 1-bed so we could more easily clean up. A week is a long stay without mousekeeping [we rented points] and no ability to easily wash the towels.
When we switched over to WL for the last 2 nights we were expecting our Courtyard view Bunk Bed room, but discovered we were upgraded to CL!
Still had the courtyard view, but no BB [good thing I hand't mentioned that part to DS, as he thinks they look lilke fun - kids!] The CL CMs were amazing. Very spot on and a much better CL experience than our BWI trip in Feb. The stay was very short so we didn't use the lounge much, but it was nice to have beverages easily at hand. We enjoyed the WL, and will likely stay there again, but I have a couple others on my list to try out first. Most of its appeal was the Christmas themeing and the rooms are on the smallish side, particularly after the OKW.
Feel free to ask any questions if you are contemplating either resort

Can't wait for our stay at WL, 28 more days. I'd be on 
if I got that upgrade to CL!!
