I thought pooling was limited to households? Unrestricted two-person pooling would be a pretty sweet benefit - I'm surprised that doesn't get more play here as a major differentiator from other programs.

HH had two-person pooling, same household, but they killed it off a couple years ago. My wife and I got in just in time...nice thing there is that when she stays at Hiltons she gets regular Gold benefits and earns all appropriate bonuses.
