Real wood or laminate in a property to be rented out

If you were doing up your house to rent it out, would you choose real wood or laminate? I'm really thinking of which one is stronger and will cope better with wear and tear?
Are laminates still considered naff or are there some good ones now?
Our house is a modern 5 bed detached, if we were to sell instead would a potential buyer be put off by laminate?

Thanks.

Having read Holyguac's thread about Karndean/Amtico in full, I'm beginning to think either bog standard laminate (or engineered wood) would be better, as many people found they scratched and marked quite soon after purchase!
