Carpet advice for sunroom

Hi all,

I'm prepping my house for sale, doing cosmetics (paint, flooring). It's a SFR in Virginia, price range $450-500k. It has a nice, big sunroom add-on and when I bought it a few years back, that room had new berber carpet. Nothing fancy, but I liked it. That carpet has to be replaced now and the few carpet people I spoke with all told me to keep it simple and just use the same carpet I'm planning to use in the bedrooms (Shaw Full Court) - it's your regular, neutral carpet that may be a step above builder grade, but that's about it. It's a relatively short-pile carpet, but not as short a berber. I'm tempted to trust them, but something just doesn't sit right with me - I'm so used to having the berber in that room that it's hard for me to imagine anything else. I was told that berber is out. So... should I just go with the recommendations, especially since I'm not doing it for myself, or are there better/more appealing carpet options for that room? And yes, I'm pretty set on carpet, even though I wouldn't want a square inch of it in my own home.

Thank you! Pic of sunroom with original berber below:
