Hardwood or carpet?

We're remodeling a small apt that has a very pretty, original hardwood floor that was recently refinished in the living room.  There is also hardwood in the bedroom which hasn't been refinished in 20 + years.  If we chose to refinish it, it won't look as nice as the living room bc it has had some water damage.  The price to refinish it is $900.  If we carpet it the price is about $600.  

What do BPers think is more appealing to a renter?  Hardwood that has some spots and won't be the exact same color as the living room or carpet?
