I hate to say this being a loyal marriott platinum for the last 4+ years ... but this year i used priceline to book my hotel, and got a great deal at the Westin Regina in Cancun. So i called Starwood and they comped me to Diamond, Upgraded my room by 2 levels, and gave me unlimited access to ... the &gt; Concierge Lounge &lt;

So maybe Marriott should consider having a lounge in either the JW or the Casa Magna

Starwood doesn't have "Diamond" status so I'm guessing they comped you Platinum. If upgrades are important to you, *wood should please you. Marriott has their strengths too, but it is not upgrades. BTW, *wood will not be giving benefits like upgrades on priceline bookings starting in 2004.

GO BROWNS!!
