romadaro,

That's quite interesting-- I guess that's another term I have to watch out for-- "varied bedding." I think the Hyatt Regency Baltimore may have a similar problem to the Aruba property. I looked at the floorplan on the back of the door to check out the configuration/size of other rooms relative to my accomodation. The floors have an irregular shape and there appeared to be 3 other rooms with an identical configuration on my floor (1 in each odd-shaped corner, basically)-- if the same situation exists on each floor, that's quite a few substandard rooms. I have a hard time imagining that they could sell these to customers paying anything close to their posted rates w/o major p.r. problems.

I was thinking they might use them for aircrews, but I wonder if union contracts require the airlines to provide a regular bed.
