Gave it a try on Thursday night. Shuttle picked me up within a minute...just good luck I imagine. Check-in was a non event at 10PM. No lines at all. Maybe lucky again. No upgrade but didn't care. Had a bite at the Marketplace which I liked. Thought the room was only about half-rehabbed -- carpet was still old and stained. AC had two speeds -- loud and noisy or louder and noisier. Was too tired after coming in from LHR to care. Had to use a pen to toggle the control button on the thermostat. Breakfast was good. Service was good. Staff was helpful and nice. Would go back to the Ren next time. A more relaxed feel and a little more "refined". If I had to stay there again I would but it wouldn't be my first choice, probably not my second either.
