Respectfully Disagree. If discounted rooms are available, you will be allowed to extend on the PL website until 11:30 AM the day of check-out. I've done this lots and lots of times. The hotel might not offer extensions except at a higher rate, and whether you get upset or not is nobody's problem but your own. If PL does let you extend, you will have to visit the front desk, re-check-in, run your CC again, and get a new key.
If you are unsuccessful in extending your stay at the same property via PL, and you are feeling lucky, you can always re-bid the zone and maybe you will win your own hotel again, in which case call the front desk....
