I've been staying at the Crowne Plaza the last two years and love the service, I just don't love the bed. The Sheraton was open, barely, on my last stay but I opted to stay at the CP again because it appeared hardly anything was open (other than the rooms and front desk). I read on the site that the pool and fitness facility is still not open, though they have a makeshift fitness room open.
The building is indeed, um, gold and does stand out. I may stay a night just to check it out and will post afterward.
Thanks!
