I'm Marriott Nothing so no worries. Like you I'm not there for the hotel, I want a good location, decent breakfast (included with my rate) and comfortable bed.

November
A wee little midweek Lisbon city break
9th: BA (Y) - GLA-LHR-LIS (including ~5hr LHR transit to undertake T3 lounge hopping. I'm thinking to check out the AA Flagship Lounge first, then CX Flounge for noodles and a shower, then BA Flounge for Taittinger Prelude)
12th: BA (Y) - LIS-LHR-GLA (~4hr transit to relax and have quite a few glasses of Taittinger again)
December
A very close family friend's university graduation.
8th/9th: BA (Y) - GLA-LHR | AA (Y) - LHR-MIA | JJ (Y) - MIA-CNF-CGH
15th: AA (J) - GRU-MIA (12 hour layover in Miami - any suggestions on what to do?)
15th/16th: AA (J) - MIA-LHR | BA (Y) - LHR-GLA

A friend from the US travelling with me found the see-through shower arrangement a bit uncomfortable. Didn't bother me though

I stayed here for an overnight in the spring and was pleasantly surprised. The area is no great shakes and maybe a bit far from nightlife... but the hotel itself was nicer than I expected (particularly for something near a train station).
A friend from the US travelling with me found the see-through shower arrangement a bit uncomfortable. Didn't bother me though

And hopefully any friends I meet wont mind the see through shower.
