The lounge was crowded so 2 of the 3 mornings we got coupons from the lounge attendant and had the full buffet in the downstairs restaurant. Overall great stay, nice room, friendly & helpful staff. We'll consider staying here again for future NYC trips. 25K points per night seems like a great deal to me.
I would imagine that this property will be a prime target for the increase to 35K points per night effective 18th January... Which is a shame, as you say, a very good deal at 25k points as it is now.
