If you are paying, why not do both and get the extra night/stay credit? Thats what I did and loved them both. They are literally across a plaza from one another and the consierge actually had my bags moved over while I was out sightseeing. I told him I wanted to experience both properties and he thought that was a great idea.

Again- here are some pics of my stays:
