yes, but corner rooms is just a request that cannot be guaranteed.

I've stayed at POR, CSR and CBR in corner rooms at all of them (it's always my number one request before requesting a level) we've found that most of the time, if not all of the time, the curtains or blinds were drawn, just as @sprocket said, for privacy purposes.

and even then, it didn't make the room much brighter. At all 3 moderates we stayed at, there was a covered walkway running in front of the room, and that took out most of the light

POR at the bayou was the worst for this (still that's the location we love the most among all moderates) because of the lush vegetation, and that zone is very dark

then at CBR we had a room facing north, so no direct sunlight all day ... real dark with the covered walkway around the building


To be honest we always requested corner rooms, because we read it was supposed to be more light inside. But from our experience, it made no real difference compared to a standard room
