Problem with that is you need 3 nights to equal 1 night of status, IIRC. So you would need 225 nights in the Apartment to get Platinum status for the year. Not enough to meet what she is looking for. Personally, I would have the DH make the reservation for you and then call in and say that my wife is checking in for me as I have meetings or some such that will prevent me from checking into the room. This will give you his status while you are traveling.
