    Amtrak men's bathroom is worst designed I've ever seen. All foot traffic bottlenecks at narrow sink & hand dryer lined entrance.

    If you stay here for any period overnight, like we did, make sure your in a chair. The Amtrak police come around at about 5:30 and tell everyone to get up off the floor, and its a mad dash to a seat.

    They only announce trains 10-15 minutes before boarding, so plan accordingly.

    Foursquare asks me "what's good" here. Nothing. Nothing in the godforsaken place is good. Well, maybe Penn Sushi. But that's about it.

    For Amtrak: take the escalators under the main departure board to the downstairs area. There's screens there and easy access to the tracks so you can avoid the 'Penn Station Shuffle'
