This seems like a great deal--especially for those of you who were forced to book the Central for the inflated rate (8K+?) and don't want to use all your points.....
I now have an extra room at the Renaissance for the same nights, but I think I will be able to get friends to join me.
Thanks for the heads up.. just booked 2 nights C+P. Also have LM booked for 10k points a night so I need to decide on which one to use- would obviously like to save the points, but I am a bit nervous after reviewing the master thread on the 4 Points. I'm not looking for a luxury hotel, but there seem to be a lot of posts about the lack of cleanliness which concerns me. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/starw...-thread-2.html
If LM is only a 10 minute walk from the tents we may just end up doing that as I am used to walking (those who know me know I have quite a big stride ). I know we will be out and about a lot, but I really don't want to stay in a dirty room. Olafman- can you quell my fears about the 4P? Can I chalk the master thread up to FT drama queens?
