I split my time between the Marriott and the Sheraton. The M is older but a lot better run.

The Sherton neighborhood is nicer although not as central as the Marriott. The rooms are nice and bigger than the regular rooms at the Marriott. The beds are not good - some mattresses seem really thin and old. Most importantly, you can open the window and get some fresh air in the summer.

Yes, the Hyatt will open in Sep or October. Westin in 2003, I think. I would think the Sheraton would be worried especially occupancy rates in WAW hotels are not that high (although have been sold out a lot over the last few weeks).
