They are across the street (diagonally) from each other. The Suites has been closed for probably 2 years or so now. I thought they were planning on converting them to apartments/lofts, but the news of a potential Courtyard broke this week.

The Grand is just OK, nice lobby but very average rooms. Good location on Washington Ave to hit restaurants, bars, etc at night and pretty safe to walk around. PM me if you have any other questions as I probably stay at that hotel 3X a month.
