I attempted to book it for one night last fall (using points), but ended up at the Marriott Renaissance. I liked that it was easy access by public transport (even late at night) from the airport and to downtown as I was flying in late and catching a train the next day. I waited too long to book and had to take the Renaissance. The Renaissance is on the tram from the airport and to the main train station also, but there is not much in the area and from the Marriott website, it seemed more isolated than the Courtyard North. Someone on Flyertalk has reviewed both hotels (very detailed with pictures).

Multiple Renaissance reports on this thread. Keep in mind that many people on these threads have "status" with Marriott so some of the perks being mentioned will not apply to you if you don't have status.
