Help! Paint color for Western exposure living room!

I've been having a really hard time picking out a paint color for our small, somewhat dark living room. We've tried out so many colors on the wall that looked good at night with lighting but terrible during the day (and vice versa).

We finally decided on Monroe Bisque and then someone told me that this color did weird things in their Western exposure living room. Well, we have a Western exposure living room too!

I'm pulling out my hair at this point! Does anyone have any recommendations for a nice, interesting neutral color that will keep the room looking somewhat light and bright, and that will work well with warm wood floors, cherry wood furniture, and a black, cream and rust area rug? Ignore the furniture in the photo--it's from the previous owner.

Would any of these BM colors work: Manchester Tan? Shaker Beige? Bleeker Beige? Carrington Beige? Almond Bisque? I'm also open to other paint brands (particularly Kelly Moore, as that's what our painter wants us to use).

Thanks for any help! I need to make a decision by the end of the week!
