You could do the W on Lex or the Westin grand central, but I’d advise against. I had poor experiences at both. I really like the Gramercy if you can get a reasonable rate and just take the 6 into midtown (5 min ride)

Coming to you live from the Element Times Square West. Booked last minute for an eleventh-hour client meeting. Not recommended. The nicer Times Square properties (W, Westin) are decent even if the immediate environs are horrific

I had a last minute trip come up so am staying at the Westin Times Square

People hate on it, will see if justified

Will report back

The Westin is okay. The W Times Square is not bad either

Times Square W is ok, minus Times Square

Thinking between there hotels.. w times square, Westin times square and Westin grand central.

Westin Times Square or grand central are both fine if it’s close to where you need to go

If anyone is interested in taking a summer trip to Myrtle Beach from 7/29-8/5, I am renting out my timeshare with Marriott's OceanWatch Villas at Grande Dunes. This resort is right on the beach and offers many fun activities for the whole family! The two-bed, two-bath condo has a fully furnished kitchen and can fit up to 8 people. I am ideally looking for someone to rent it out for the entire week for about 3K total. Message me for more information!

Does anyone happen to know the PwC discount codes for Hilton and Marriott hotels...asking for a friend

Does anyone have two different statuses right now? I’m Platinum Premier in Marriott but only Platinum Elite in SPG.

After a hard reset on travel points (got none after Covid and change to industry) how would you start over? Which credit card is best for travel points? Airline? Starwood or Bonvoy? Avis or ??

At one time I had status on most airlines and hotels but I never bothered to focus on accumulating points since it seemed like they were infinite and I booked on convenience. Oh have times changed! I even let go of Amex platinum, just wasn’t worth it to me. Base airport LAX/SNA so no airline pref.

Hi everyone! Can anyone tell me what you make as a typical banquet/events manager for salary or per hour? I’ve worked for Marriott/Bonvoy at the Ritz and for the Curio Collection with Hilton as a bartender/server/banquets captain. Now I’m working for a privately owned hotel and as a manager role in Banquets/Events. Because of pandemic times, what is everyone else making?

The sealed class allows one to describe which class or interface can extend or implement this class or interface. In short, we can put restrictions on who can use this class or interface.
