Just my opinion, question of different tastes, I guess. But I like way more the AO render of those three shots. The others look like they have an overworked lightning or something, you know, that kind of look you get with light bouncing.
yes AO mode is quite a good option~~but there is a problem about ao mode,if u have a scene which has a lots of windows(like 3 windows with 1 wall) then ao mode can produce quite a nice render~but if u have to deal with some complicated interior which full of rec lights,area lights,or ies lights,ao mode can't handle it,renderings turns ugly,well,u can still makes render more beautiful but it cost a lots of time to tweak,like how to make ies becoming more real and beautiful and don't cost too much render time~~anyway i have some tips on how to reduce the render time when dealing with a "full of lights interior scene"

i can share it ,but it's still wip~~~
