This. I lived there for a few months and have stayed at both. The rc is closer to those things but it’s still a drive and the fs is a better hotel, especially if you get an arch view room - worth a small additional fee. Go to bailey’s range for an excellent post-arch burger!
edit: to be crystal clear - the RC, while a very nice city RC, is in an office park. Just not worth it unless you have business in Clayton, imo.
