We figured last night that BL JR will have CO MM by 16. Which is about 1/3 the time her parents took to get CO MM :(:rolleyes:

Can't wait until Andaz 5th Ave. I have 3-4 trips lined up this year to HO.

I'm probably still a decade away from lifetime Gold on AA. If SkyTeam USA had that rule, I would own due to NW - now at 4.84 million lifetime RDM (was 4.83 last week).

love the location and the lounge; okay, the rooms aren't bad. You're right, it's a good property. As much as I hate Hyatt, I can't find anything bad to say

Rooms are as bad as any other hotel (Hilton, IC, Marriott) in area. The free sparkling water and evening cake is worth the rate.

I'm normally at Courtyards and Fairfields, so upgrades are a strange thing to me at MR properties.

I've had good upgrades at CY and FI

I'm just a huge fan of the location. I used to stay down Park Ave at the Sheraton there (I think at something like Park and 36th) but that left the SPG portfolio a few year ago :rolleyes:

I was saying it *WAS* a good property. I just hate Hyatt.

The court was not (extra) nice to HeathrowGuy today. Ended up pleading guilty to careless driving with a $239 fine and 2 points for the driving record, as I didn't want to pay $400 to plead down to 0-point unsafe driving (I've used this once before, and in NJ you can only plead unsafe driving twice in a 5 year period before getting massacred with points).
