Is the Westin Times Sq better? Just found out $255 rate for the rest if the week, thinking of switching

I'm here. Hotel is ok. Nice gym though.

Here at Sheraton? I think I'm going to switch to Westin tomorrow.

I want to be close to 30 rock, it's my office

Ok switched over. Thanks EY!

Le meridien legit blows. Staff is awful and rooms are ancient. Sheraton tsq is also among the worst of the worst. If you have to stay in midtown, Westin tsq.

The Jewel on W. 51st. Nice and close. Only downside is no points 😥

The St Regis NY gives the best platinum upgrades by far. Only downside is price

No points? Is the Jewel on W a Starwood property?

@OP want to grab a drink?

Hate it. The W is nice

I’m honestly curious why the following happens: someone asks a question about covid restrictions/health issues/ etc and half of the responses are “this shouldn’t even be a question”.
