From reading the threads on each property, it seems like the Madeline is generally favored (and I do think the location will be better since I like walking around in the evening), but I'm tempted by access to a club, and potentially a bit more space. Any thoughts from those of you who have stayed in both? I currently have no Hyatt status, but am planning to get the credit card before this trip, so I'll ideally be platinum at time of stay. Thanks!
