I usually end up staying in preferred view rooms, but have had 2123 a few years back when I booked a standard...I didn't request it, just got it by luck of draw. Initially I was complaining as we trekked down the long halls to get there...but once inside and seeing we had the corner stretch, I was much happier. The view for a standard was actually quite nice - it's parking lot, but over the canal and towards the bridge entering the front of the hotel (I stayed there before the Skyliner was there too). And the room ended up being much more convenient than I expected with the long hallways, because the door was right below to walk out to the bus stop. The extra space, exit door to the busses being very close, and a fairly expansive view for a standard all made it a good stay. I'd definitely request it again if staying standard.
