Avoid the one on canal street. My favorite is the Westin on the river.

The JW is the nicest, but the lounge at the Canal street Marriott cannot be beat. If you’re working there, the daily made to order omelette makes a difference.

Business or Leisure travel? I stayed at the Moxy during Mardi Gras and really liked it. It’s like a 10min walk to the French Quarter so far enough away from the craziness that you won’t get pissed on but still super close to everything. The front desk is a bar and they give you a free drink when you check in, lol

I thought that the JW was very meh

Easy. The Ritz Carlton

The Waldorf

I know that's depends on the amount I have to travel (and potentially stay) but at the moment this is unknown. Past 8 months was just twice a month + 2 nights stay.

The only thing I know is it won't be every week, the return trian ticket is about £80-100, depends I could plan ahead.

Just used a meaningful amount of AMEX points for the first time to buy flights to Greece for my wife and I. Emirates business class both ways for 2 people, 290k pts total or 145k each way for 2 tickets. Plus another 30k to get us round trip domestic connecting flights bringing the total to 320 points. This is on the 777 which isn’t the best business class product out there, but I’ve never flown international outside of coach and think it will still be worthwhile. Think this is an OK redemption?

Engagement ring questions!
1) Isn’t it weird to pick your own ring? I’m a big advocate of making the marriage decision together/against waiting for the man to “pop the question”/cheesy proposals, but I feel strange being involved in this process. It almost feels entitled and takes some of the romance away. Is it hypocrite of me? Of course I’d rather get my ideal ring than something I like less but still. How do you feel about it?

I need some legit feedback on what is it like to be a UXD at companies like Accenture?
They claim to do a lot of research oriented designs, as everyone. But is that really the case or it's like some other service based companies where the UX is almost vague, and happens mostly based on what the managers think to be good?

Does UX have any value or it's just drafting wireframes based on ideations by the managers and then UI designs?
