Makes sense, no questions here.

I guess I want to clarify what you posted earlier then:

So you mean it doesn't matter when you check into Foursquare within the time of your stay at the hotel? I just want to clarify when we actually can check-in on 4S and get credit! For instance, I'm jumping between 2 different SPG properties each night and want to make sure I check-in at the right time to get credit for each stay!
