Best SPG + Marriott hotels in Beijing?

First 2 years for CSR is about to be over, and I’m looking at the value of the card against the annual fee. Combined with my other cards (Chase Freedom Unlimited & Flex) and deducting the $300 travel fee, the net benefit is $76. Is that enough to justify keeping the card? The lounge access at airports were a nice benefit, never got to use it since my client travel was through Amtrak.

In non pandemic times - how bad is the commute to airport from Greenlake, Ballard during rush hours?
Also - West Seattle to downtown when the bridge is back?
