Rooms on the side of the train track get to listen to trains coming in until at least a bit past midnight. There's sound insulation but it wouldn't be great if you're a light sleeper on a low floor.

The breakfast menu has been simplified (I didn't see eggs benedict or steak & eggs) and I wasn't charged the 3% fee but still comes out to more than the breakfast credit. Breakfast service is slow, even with not many people around, so it's not worth it unless you actually want to enjoy the view (which is pretty nice).

Lobby was full of mosquitos, with the front desk people constantly waving around one of those electric tennis racket things to zap them. I was told it's because of the new plants they put in.

Rooms had barn-door bathrooms but otherwise were nice. Note there's a very high percentage of accessible rooms in this hotel so don't be surprised if you get put in one.

Instead of paying for valet parking, there's a surface lot one block away across from the Marriott, and some nearby street parking is free Saturday and Sunday.
