Is there a particular type of room/view/area of the hotel that I should request?

Do most rooms have mini-fridges, or only suites?


Thanks for the help.
The Diamond upgrade is usually to a Casita Suite. I do prefer one of the large suites in the main hotel--however not always available depending on the week you stay and you have to ask at check-in. I'm pleased to learn that the hotel is undergoing a renovation--let's hope that the Casita suites will be redone as well. The Club lounge is closed on weekends however you get breakfast at Petey Brown's (buffet) and 2500 points. I definitely have received terrific service at this hotel--the lounge staff is very pro active. Good luck enjoy your stay.
