Any recent thoughts on choosing between the RC, New York Palace, and Marriott?

Rates are all reasonable when I'm in town. I've stayed at the RC before and liked the central location. Not usually a fan of RC's but had a nice stay there. They have a good rate with club access so the breakfast benefit isn't a significant issue. I suppose I'm more concerned about upgrades as an Ambassador in the properties. I guess the RC is more central (and right by the subway/train station) but the Marriott is on the water on has the lounge terrace.
