I sent my wife and Mother-in - Law to Ireland for 10 days. They has booked a 3 day tour in the middle of the week to avoid weekend traffic. The Conrad Dublin split the GLON award, let them leave their extra suitcases and what nots in the same room!
If the hotel is not jammed for inventory, why not? Also, When I get my chance to visit Ireland, whether by points or paying, I know where I'll be staying.
