...... vs. Quantity Convenience vs. Point whore

You've got 300,000 points.

Do you

A: St. Regis/Conrad/JW (cat 6-7) 5 nights
B: Sheraton/Renaissance/Doubletree (cat 3) 12 Nights
C: Westin/Marriott/Hilton (cat 4-5) 8 Nights

I typically pick the latter. Middle tier. Middle quality, not bad period of time. I don't need to be super balla for 5 nights as opposed to just balla for 8 nights.

During a week of travel (4 nights) when you travel every week do you:

A. 1 Night 1 Stay it every night.
B. Same hotel for the same week. 1 Stay - 4 Nights.

I just think its a lot more balla to be able to be Platinum for 3 lines or at least 2 lines then to be top dawg at 1 - even if it is Platinum Premier.
